Can you say it in other words?…to help them survive the winter.2.what is the fundamental rule of life?The more fat the deer reserve, the more chance there is for them to survive the crises. Only the largest and strongest are likely to survive.3.Is the fundamental rule of life applicable to human beings?Yes.

大学体验英语综合教程课堂辅导Book 4Unit 1-passage a-难点精讲
1. The more I thought about it, however, the more glaring an omission it seemed. 后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。
☺本句为倒装句。
the more... the more 越⋯越表示两个过程按比例同时递增。
前一个the more 结构为从属分句，后一个the more 结构为主句，通常从句在前，主句在后。
如：The more he eats, the fatter he gets. 吃得越多长得越胖。
The sooner y ou start, the more quickly you’ll finish. 开始的越早，完成的越快。
相关短语more and more“越来越⋯”表示同一个过程不断增加。
如：She became more and more beautiful. 她越长越漂亮。
2. Not only was dad not around, he wasn’t even mentioned —despite the fact that there was a baby in the family, so dad couldn’t have been that long gone. 父亲不仅没有出现，他甚至没有被提到——尽管家中有婴儿，说明他不可能离开太长时间。
☺ Not only 具有否定含义，因此若置于句首将引起倒装。
☺破折号后的that 引导的部分是the fact 的同位语从句。
3. It seems that the only time fathers merit attention is when they are criticized for not helping enough with the housework or when they die. 看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候，或者是在他们去世的时候。
