一句英语句子的语法.Not only the children but also their father likes

连词not only...but also/ neither...nor/ or/ either...or/ not...but 在语法上要采用就近原则,以靠近谓语动词的,作主语的名词作为人称和数的参考标准.
Not only the students but also the teacher is enjoying the film.
不仅学生而且老师都在津津乐道地看着电影.
Neither the students nor the teacher knows anything about it.
同学们和老师对此都一无所知.
Neither he nor they are wholly right.
他和他们,谁都不是完全对的.
Either he or I am right.
或者他对,或者我对.

因为前面是their father,为单数.

father（he） 是第3人称 所以用likes

这些孩子拥有一个爸爸,因为是单数

简而言之，就近原则
