职称英语考试语法:语句辨认及例题解析
你能看出下句的问题吗?
His salary as a bus driver is more higher than a teacher. ( 他是个公共汽车司机,他的工资要比教师高。)
该句有两个大错1)high的比较级为higher,2)主语his salary(他的工资)而比较对象是a teacher,两者不可比,怎样的表达才是对的呢?请选择:
His salary as a bus driver is much higher ______。
A.in comparison with a teacherB.than a teacher
C.than a teachers D.than that of a teachers
正确答案是C,也可以写成than that of a teacher(请联系名词格的概念想一想)
最高级the most of 比较范围 / 最高级 名词 that (不是which)定语从句,例如:
This is the most interesting film that I have ever seen. (这是我看过的最有趣的电影。)
the more…the more…
The longer you wear glasses, the more you depend on them. (眼镜戴的时间越长越有依赖性。)
考试时,一般只要认准"the" 和比较级形式就不难判别。
其他表示比较意思的形式
A is superior / inferior to B(A 比B高级 / 低级)
注意:superior/ inferior前不能再加 more 或者less; 用to不是用 than.
例如:
Humans are superior to animals in that they can use languages to communicate.(人比动物高级在于人能用语言进行交际。)
prefer… rather than (宁可…而不…)
例如:
I preferred to stay out in the cold rather than spend the night there. (我宁可呆在外面受冷,也不在那儿过夜。)
Would rather…than… ……(用法和意思与上句型差不多)
