Og12 语法83题

In 2000, a mere two dozen products accounted for half the increase in spending on prescription drugs, a phenomenon that is explained not just because of more expensive drugs but by the fact that doctors are writing many more prescriptions for higher-cost drugs.

A. a phenomenon that is explained not just because of more expensive drugs but by the fact that doctors are writing
B. a phenomenon that is explained not just by the fact that drugs are becoming more expensive but also by the fact that doctors are writing
C. a phenomenon occurring not just because of drugs that are becoming more expensive but because of doctors having also written
D. which occurred not just because drugs are becoming more expensive but doctors are also writing
E. which occurred not just because of more expensive drugs but because doctors have also written

答案是b

这题我主要不明白的是，原句是（也就是a）想表达的是“某个现象不是由于更多昂贵的药可以解释的，而应该是由于医生开了很多昂贵的药这个原因解释的。”a的句型是“not···but···”，表达的是转折

但是正确答案b的句型是not only ```but also````，“不但···而且···“的表达的是平行。

选择b的话，则会造成与本来想表的（a选项）的意思完全不同。所以，选择b会不会也很牵强呢？谢谢~

这个题考察平行如果 not just 后面跟着的是BECAUSE 那么 BUT 后面也一定要更

BECAUSE
选项B 两个 ARE DOING 结构完全是平行的

a mere two dozen products accounted for half the increase in spending on

prescription drugs 这句话所描述的现象是because of more expensive drugs 还是 drugs

are becoming more expensive的解释更为合理呢？LZ仔细想想哪句话更符合逻辑。
