题目分析：
本题比较难。很多考生一看到未划线部分有一个not only，然后立刻就在选项中找but also。实际上，not only…but also…确实是一个习惯表达，但是并不是唯一正确的习惯表达。可以用not only…but…，也可以用not only…also…。
选项分析：
A选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
B选项：and身后的selling the data to competitors是一个分词短语，该分词短语在and身前并没有平行对象。
C选项：pilfering valuable information是分词短语。句型not only…but also…中，not only和but also必须各自引导一个完整的句子，需要有完整的主谓结构。（当然，not only…but also…和and做连词是一个道理，也可以因为省略现象而只连接两个功能相同的部分。本题中的not only身后就是一个完整句，所以but also身后也必须是完整句）
D选项：句型not only…but also…中，not only和but also必须各自引导一个完整的句子，本选项的but also身后缺少主语。
E选项：pilfering valuable information是分词短语错误同(C)。
查了词典，not only算是一个副词，那后面的句子省略also也就算了，省略but难道不是run-on吗？如果not only算是一个连词，那原本not only+clause,but also+clause 不就没有主句了吗？
没错。但是省略的原则是，在不引起歧义的情况下就可以省略，所以GMAC爸爸在这道题目中认为，你见了not only，就能知道后面有but also，所以我省略了也没什么大不了的。
