Nobody with any sense expects to find the whole truth in advertisement any more than he expects a man applying for a job to describe his shortcomings and more serious faults.
参考答案:
要点:本句中比较级not any more than并不是比较概念,而是用于比喻。翻译时,可译为如...一样之类表示比喻的词语。同时要注意,用作比喻的比较级用于否定句时,than后面的从句不用否定式,但译成汉语时要用否定词。习惯上,先翻译than后面的否定意思,再翻译前面的否定意思!
译文:有头脑的人谁也不会指望求职者会说出自己的缺点和严重过失,同样他也不指望招聘广告里说的话都是真话!
