not but 是否就近原则it was not his carelssness but the bad road co

ut

本句是一个简单句 所以没有主句从句之分
it 是形式主语
was是系动词
the task of the grammarian是表语 后面 是不定式 短语 作 真主语
not simply to record alternatives,but to pronounce judgment upon them
其中 not simply.but = not only.but also 并列两个 动词不定式短语 作真主语
原句= not simply to record alternatives but to pronounce judgment upon them was the task of the grammarian

...不仅...而且...比如 It is not only you,but me.意为不仅是你还有我 中间没有逗号我不知道 老师没教过- - 好吧,可能是我忘了

用and是对的,翻译为“并且”,and强调的是后面的 place the future order carefully,跟前面的简单句不发生歧义冲突.
But是连接转折关系复句的连词,这个复合句,前后两个简单句,不构成转折关系,所以还是and更好一些.
祝进步

不是……而是……
She is not a singer but a film star.她不是个歌星而是个影星.

Not an alarm clock but dreams wake me up every morning.
或用强调句型：It is not an alarm clock but dreams that wake me up every morning.
not...but...连接两个并列主语时,谓语动词的数采用就近原则.

I didn't listen to the radio at home but played volleyball yesterday morning

as well as,together with,alone with都只强调前面的主语,所以后面谓语用单数．This kind of beverage,as well as cola,tastes good.（注：taste虽然是动词,但在英语中主语是物,那被看作为系动词）
rather than意思是”而不是”等于instead of一般不会用语开头．instead of用语开头更多．Rather than going to the cinema,i went to.yesterday.
not but意思是”仅仅”等于only.he has nothing but good luck.

They came here not for money but for the life 这里的not for money but for the life是目的状语修饰come, 这句话意思是 ：他们来到这里是为了生活而不是钱.这里是for表示目地 如果用don't come 就不是这个意思了 变成-他们没到这里...还有如果这里要用助动词don't 要改成过去式didn't not ...but 不...但..表示转折 not是副词 修饰动词 一般跟在be动词,情态动词,助动词后 就是这样吧 望采纳...
