题目解答
答案
C. Father as well as mother loves me.
解析
本题考查英语并列结构的用法及主谓一致规则。关键点在于:
- Not only...but also...结构中,谓语动词的单复数由靠近的主语决定(就近原则);
- as well as是附加并列结构,不改变主语的单复数;
- Both...and...和as well as不能重复使用。
A. Not only father but also mother love me.
- 错误原因:谓语动词与靠近的主语不一致。
“but also mother”是后半部分,主语“mother”是单数,谓语动词应为loves,而非love。
B. Both father and as well as mother love me
- 错误原因:重复使用并列连词。
“Both...and...”是固定搭配,不能再加“as well as”,属于结构重复。
C. Father as well as mother loves me.
- 正确原因:
“as well as”是附加结构,主语仍是“Father”(单数),谓语动词用loves,符合主谓一致规则。
D. Both father as well as mother love me.
- 错误原因:并列结构混用。
“Both”和“as well as”均表示并列,不能同时使用。
