1.Not only is the amount in excess of the maximum sum the bank can loan any individual legally, but it is absolutely without endor百度竞价推广ent or security.问题不只在于数目超越了银行发放私人贷款的最高限额,而且既无担保,又无抵押。(源于欧亨利小说A CALL LOAN)
2.Not only is the increasing age, and friendship and health.
日渐增加的不止是年龄,还有友情和健康。
为何这两个句子的前半句都没主语?not only is后面就直接接了个名词词组,是省略了吗?
1 The amount is not only in excess of...。句子的主语是the amount,in excess of...为介词短语作表语。not only移至句首,is 倒装于主语the amount之前。你如何能说这里没主语呢?
2 你的这个句子是不完整的。你给出原位或链接,我看看上下文。
