英语讲义【171】More than的用法

　　简简单单的more than，用法可多呢！

　　下面是些好例子：

　　●　A. More than＋名词表示多于、非但尤其是如：

　　1）　　Modern science is more than a large amount of information.

　　2）　　Jason is more than a lecturer; he is a writer, too.

　　●　B. More than＋数词含以上或不止之意，如：

　　3）　　 I have known David for more than 20 years.

　　4）　　Lets carry out the test with more than the sample copy.

　　●　C. More than＋形容词等于很或非常的意思，如：

　　5）　　In doing scientific experiments, one must be more than careful with the instruments.

　　6）　　I assure you I am more than glad to help you.

　　●　D. 在Morethan中，肯定more后面的而否定than后面的，约等于是而不是如：

　　7）　　The difference between pure linguistics and applied linguistics is more apparent than real.

　　8）　　This book seems to be more a manual than a text.

　　9）　　Catherine is more diligent than intelli-gent.

　　10）　　Hearing the loud noise, the boy was more surprised than frightened.

　　●　E. More than或Morethan＋含can的分句时表示否定意，如：

　　11）　　Thats more than I can do.

　　12）　　Dont bite off more than you can chew.

　　13）　　In delivering his lecture, Jason makes sure not to include more things than the students can understand.

　　●　F. No morethan表示不；不如，如：

　　14）　　I can no more do that than anyone else.

　　15）　　A learner can no more obtain knowledge without reading than a farmer can get good harvest without ploughing.

　　No morethan的语义，也可用not any more than来取代，因此 15 可以变成 16.

　　16）　　A learner cannot any more than 同样的， 17可以变成 18：

　　17）　　Dr Hu is no more a poet than Dr Wu is a philosopher.

　　18）　　Dr Hu is not a poet any more than Dr Wu is a philosopher.

　　此外，more than也在一些惯用语中出现，如：

　　19）　　More offen than not （经常），people tend to pay attention to what they can take rather than what they can give.

　　20）　　All of us are more than a little concerned about（非常关心）the current economic problems.

　　总之，more than看似简单，其实很有内涵，味道隽永。
