的用法总结

more than 可以看作一个固定词组,后面可跟名词(或动名词)、动词、形容词和从句等。

由于后面所接形式不同,more than 的用法和译法也不相同。现分述如下:

时间。

Bamboo is used for more than building. 竹子不仅仅用于建筑。

而han 这种结构是对于不同的人或物的同一性质或方面的比较。常见的用法

高一些。

I was more sorry than angry at what happened. 与其说我对所发生的事感到气

愤,不如说感到遗憾。

no more than + 基数词,意思是"不过、仅仅、只有",相当于only, 表示"只这么多",

有"少"的含义。如:

这城里只有两家医院。(表示很少)

not more than + 基数词,意思是"至多,不超过(也许还不到)",相当于at most, 只是

一般地指出数量或程度,没有"多"或"少"的感情色彩。如:

影。(也许还不到)

而han 的意思是"同……一样不",两件事物比较时,否定两方面。如:

She is no more able to read Spanish than I am. = Neither she nor I am able

He runs no faster than you. 他跟你一样跑不快。

to read Spanish. 她和我一样都不能读西班牙文。

han 的意思是"比不上……,不及……",在两件事物比较时,二者都有某种特

性,但程度不同,其中一件比不上另一件,但两者都是肯定的。如:

I'm not more busy than you. =I'm less busy than you. 我没有你那么忙。

This tool is not more useful than that one. 这件工具不及那件有用。
