not only...but also 用于句首为何不倒装

问题描述
当not only…but also连接两个句子,且将not only用于句首时,not only后面的句子应该用部分倒装。如:
Not only has she been late three times, she has also done no work. 她不仅仅迟到了3次,她还没干一点活。
但是下面这个句子为什么没有倒装?
Not only the students were tired, but the teacher, too. 不仅学生累了,老师也不累了。
老师答疑
张老师:
▲ 这是个很好的问题。正如你所说,当not only…but also连接两个句子,且将not only用于句首时,not only后面的句子应该用部分倒装。这主要是为了强调。再如:
Not only has she been late three times, shehas also done no work. 她不仅仅迟到了3次,她还没干一点活。
Not only do they need clothing, but theyare also short of water. 他们不但需要衣服,而且还缺水。
▲ 不过有时也可见到不倒装的情形,正如你所疑问的句子那样。注意:此时主要见于上下文主语不一致;but also后接省略结构的情况(省略只剩下主语):
Not only the students were tired, but theteacher, too. 不仅学生们累了,老师也一样。
Not only my mother was unhappy, but Marian,too. 不仅我母亲不快乐,玛丽安也不快乐。
▲为什么呢?这是因为省略以后,后一部分主语实际上可以被看做前一句主语的并列主语之故。换言之,后一部分一律可前置:
Not only my mother was unhappy, but Marian,too. = Not only my mother but also Mary was unhappy.不仅我母亲不快乐,玛丽安也不快乐。
Not only the students were tired, but theteacher, too. = Not only the students but also the teacher was tired. 不仅学生们累了,老师也一样。
