英語專四重點語法解析:than、比較

than

1. Mary is _______ than Alice. (1992)

A. more experienced a teacher B. a more experienced teacher

C. more an experienced teacher D. more experienced teacher

(an experienced teacher, 比較級加在形容詞前，因此B。)

2._______ the two, Bob is ________ student. (1995)

A. Of, more diligent B. In, more diligent

C. Of, the more diligent D. In, the more diligent

(the + 比較級 + of the two，因此C。)

3.Western Nebraska generally receives less snow than _______ Eastern Nebraska. (1996)

A. in B. it receives in C. does D. it does in

(完整形式應該是：than Eastern Nebraska receives snow，省去了部分謂語，保留了主語和助動詞，可以倒裝，因此C。)

4.The indoor swimming pool seems to be a great more luxurious than _______. (1998)

A. is necessary B. being necessary C. to be necessary D. it is necessary

(這個句子是一個由than引導的比較狀語從句，既然是從句那么可以排除BC;than引導的從句中省略了的主語應該是the indoor swimming pool，為避免重復，一般省略，不需要用it來指代。A。)5.There ought to be less anxiety over the perceived risk of mountain climbing than ______ in the public mind today. (1999)

A. exists B. exist C. existing D. to exist

(省略了的主語是anxiety，因此謂語動詞用第三人稱單數：A)

6. The experiment requires more money than _______. (2002)

A. have been put in B. being put in

C. has been put in D. to be put in

(than引導的從句中省略了的主語應該是money，因此謂語動詞要用第三人稱單數，C。)
