英语语法:no more…than还是not more…than

英语语法:no more…than还是not more…than

英语语法:no more…than还是not more…thanYou are _________ careful than your brother. You two can’t do the work that needs care and skill.A. not moreB. no moreC. not lessD. no less选对此题,至少要弄清两点:一是下文的语境,二是not more than, no more than等结构的含义。

下文说You t wo can’t do the work that needs care and skill,这就表明这两个人都不是很仔细的人。

再看选项中所涉及的几个结构的意思:not more ... than = 不如no more ... than = 和......一样不(否定两者)not less ... than = 不如......不no less ... than = 和......一样(肯定两者)比较以下各句的意思:You are more careful than he is. 你比他仔细。

You are not more careful than he is. 你不如他仔细。

You are no more careful than he is. 你和他一样不仔细。

You are less careful than he is. 你不如他仔细。

You are not less careful than he is. 你比他仔细。

You are no less careful than he is. 你和他一样仔细。

综合以上分析,上面一题的最佳答案应是B。

no more than的用法及其他

no more than的用法及其他

no more than的用法及其他这类习语比较多,而且形式相似,若不真正弄懂其本质,很容易弄混。

关于这些习语,最关键的要弄清两个习语的用法,就是not more than和no more than,前者属于more tha n的否定式,more than意为“多于”,所以not more than的意思就是“不多于”“不超过”;no more than主要强调more的反面,即强调数量之少或程度之低,如说no more than 10 days,其意为“只有10天”,在说话者心目中,10 days是一个较低的数字,有类似“跟1 0天一样少”之意;又如He gave no more than five dollars,其意为“他只给我5美元”,在说话者心目中,five dollars是一笔很少的钱,有类似“跟5美元一样少”之意。

类似地,我们说no richer than,则强调的是richer的反面,其意为“跟……一样穷”,若说no fast er than,则强调faster的反面,其意为“跟……一样慢”。

因为同样的道理,我们可以推知,no less than强调的是less的反面,即强调多,强调数量之多或程度之大,如说no less tha n 10 days,意为“多达10天”,在说话者心目中,10 days是一个较大的数字。

比较He earned no more than 800 dollars a month. 他一个月只挣800美元。

(在说话者看来,800 dollars是一笔较少的数,他这样说带有轻视的意味)He earned no less than 800 dollars a month. 他一个月就挣800美元。

(在说话者看来,800 dollars是很大一笔数,他这样说带有羡慕的意味)no more than no less thanno more than同样不;仅仅,只有1)He is no more than a worker. 他仅仅是个工人。

morethan,notmorethan,nomorethan,nolessthan,notlessthan,otherthan,ratherthan解读

morethan,notmorethan,nomorethan,nolessthan,notlessthan,otherthan,ratherthan解读

More than 用法一、more than 后跟形容词、副词、分词、动词、名词,more than 起强调作用,含义是more than 后的形容词、副词、分词、动词、名词的分量不足以反应实际情况而加以说明,汉语意思是:“十分,非常,岂止,简直,不仅仅,绰绰有余”。

例如:I am more than content with what you said. 我对你的讲话十分满意。

She was dressed more than simply. 她穿着太朴素了。

Being a good listener means much more than just listening with ears.做一个好的听者不仅仅意味着“用耳朵听”。

Peace is much more than the absence of war. 和平不仅仅是没有战争。

can't agree more、A doctor can't be too careful. A kid can never have too many toys.小孩永远不会嫌玩具多。

二、more than / more …than 跟含can 的从句,这种结构不能照字面来翻译。

more than 之后的从句里,英语里虽是肯定形式,却表示否定概念。

more than …can …的结构意为“简直不可能”;“more …than …can …”的结构意为“达到不可能的程度”。

例如:The beauty of the place is more than I can describe.那个地方美得我简直不可以言表。

How he manages to live is more than I can tell. 他怎样生活的,我简直猜不透。

He has more money than he can spend. 他有花不完的钱。

三、more …than 通常用于比较两个不同的人物,但有时也可用来指一个人物本身的两种特性,这时其意义和rather than 相同,肯定more 后面的,而否定than 后面的。

more than, less than ,more...than, less…than, not more than, no more than, no less than结构的用法

more than, less than ,more...than, less…than, not more than, no more than, no less than结构的用法

我们常常对more than, less than ,more...than,less…than, not more than, no more than, no less than这四种结构的用法混淆或使用上出现差错。

现将其用法进行归纳整理以便于大家区别使用。

1. more than① (指数量)多于:I’ve known him for more than twenty years. 我已认识他20多年了。

②不只是,不仅仅是(通常后接名词、动词、从句等):He is more than a father to her. 他待她胜过父亲。

He more than smiled, but laughed. 他不只是微笑,而是放声大笑。

The result was much more than I imagined. 结果远远超过我的想像。

③极其,非常(通常后接形容词、副词或分词等):She was more than kind to us. 她对我们很友好。

He was more than upset by the accident. 这个意外事故使他非常心烦意乱。

④难以,完全不能(其后通常连用情态动词 can):That is more than I can tell (=I can’t tell that). 那事我实在不明白。

More than +名词表示“多于……”、“非但……尤其是”如:Modern science is more than a large amount of information.Jason is more than a lecturer; he is a writer, too.More than +数词含“以上”或“不止”之意,如:I have known David for more than 20 years.Let‘s carry out the test with mo re than the sample copy.More than +形容词表示“很”或“非常”的意思,如:In doing scientific experiments, one must be more than careful with the instruments.I assure you I am more than glad to help you.肯定“more”后面的而否定“than”后面的,表示是“与其说……不如……”,如:The difference between pure linguistics and applied linguistics is more apparent than real.This book seems to be more a manual than a text.More than或More...than...+含“can”的分句时表示“否定意”,如:That's more than I can do.Don't bite off more than you can chew.另外,“more than”也在惯用语中,如: More offen than not (经常),people tend to pay attention to what they can take rather than what they can give.1)用于数词(或相当于数词的词之前),作"多于、大于"解。

九、陷阱题分析1. How beautifully she sings!I have never heard_____voice. A. a better B. a best C. the better D. the best 「陷阱」容易误选D,认为最高级前要用定冠词。

「分析」其实此题最佳答案为A.该句可视为I have never heard a better voice than her voice 之省略,全句句意为“她唱得多好啊!我从未听过她这么好的声音”。

请再看以下类似的实例:He is fine,never better. 他很好,比以往任何时候都好。

This bird is really lovely. I‘ve never seen a finer one. 这只鸟真可爱,我从未见过这样好看的鸟。

比较以下试题,情形也大致相同:(1)“I've never found a better job.” -----“______” A. I don‘t think so B. Too bad C. Congratulations D. Don’t worry 答案选C.I've never found a better job 可视为I’ve never found a better job than this job 之省略,句意为“我从来没有找到比这份工作更好的工作”,即“这是我所找到的最好的工作”。
