Concept: The same part of the speech should follow reciprocal confluence. Illustration- She’s not only enough but also humble.
Then, the adjectives enough and humble follow the reciprocal confluence; not only but also. Hence, the statement maintains community and balance.
Now, let’s look at the given options;
Option A: The given statement is grammatically unhappy, as a judgment that begins with ‘ not only ’ should be followed by an supplementary verb. Hence, it's an incorrect option.
Option B: In the given statement; ‘ not only ’ is followed by a verb, whereas ‘ but also ’ is followed by a prepositional expression. The statement lacks balance and community. Hence, it's an incorrect option.
Option C: Both ‘ not only ’ and ‘ but also ’ are followed by a prepositional expression. The judgment is grammatically balanced. Hence, it's the correct option.
Option D: The use of ‘ not only ’ and ‘ but also ’ can be seen together in the given statement. Hence, it's an incorrect option.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
