A home without love is no more a home than a body without a soul is a man .
【主干识别】A home without love is no more a home.
【其他成分】than a body without a soul is a man状语从句
【难点揭秘】这个句子难点在于no more than结构的用法:
(1)如果是对数量进行修饰的时候,no more than = only, 意为仅仅,只有,例如:There are no more than ten people in the room.(房间里只有十个人。)
(2)在程度上进行比较时,no more than有两者都不之意,表示说话者主观上嫌其少(差、不足、 不好)等,例如:This book is no more interesting than that one.(这两本书都没趣。)
也就是说这个结构在程度比较的时候than后面所接的句子或其他成分都受到了前面否定词no的限制,例如:I can run no faster than he can.(我跑的不快,他跑的也不快。)
分为两个句子为:
i)A home without love is not home
ii)A body without a soul is not a man.
用no more than 结构连起来就成了上面的句子。任何固定结构其实都是从简单到复杂的一个过程,任何结构都是可以从最基本的句子成分入手进行解析的。
【译文赏析】正像一个没有灵魂的躯体不成其为人,就如一个没有爱的家庭不成其为家庭。
