【问】 [Burbank truly astonished the world with his achievements in the development of manykinds of plants，such as giant fruits with new flavors and trees which grew faster thantheir ancestors.] These，and many more achievements，were of great economic value andbenefit to people all over the world.(研考英语试题)
 [原译]……这许许多多的成就都有着巨大的经济价值，对全世界人民都有好处。(《出国生、研究生英语考题解答》，P. 95)
 请指出more在上句中的意义和用法。
 【答】 句中的more是形容词，意为“另外的”、“其他的”(additional，other)。例如，We have alot more work to do.(我们还有很多工作要做)。I have many more books.(我还有许多书)。例句中的these achievements是指上句所谈的成就，而many more achievements则是指“此外的许多成就”、“其它许多成就”。
 [试译]……这些成就及其它许多成就都具有重大的经济价值，对全世界上的人们都有好处。
 我们在教学中发现，许多学生对于more的这种用法是不大熟悉的，故再补充一些例句：
 1. Would you like to have some more tea?
 您要不要再喝点儿茶?
 2. He tried three more times.
 他又尝试了三次。
 3. I will take one more glass.
 我将再喝一杯。
 4. How many more apples are there?
 还有多少苹果?
 5. In 1671 two more great works followed Paradise Lost.
 1671年，继《失去的天堂》之后，他又写了两篇伟大的作品。
 6. He planned to buy some more clothes. (London)
 他计划再买一些衣服。
 7. Shall I get a couple more chairs? (Shaw)
 我可以再要一对椅子吗?
 8. There are many more(books，etc.) on the other side.(Palmer)
 另一边还有许多(书，等等)。或：在另一边有多得多的(书，等等)。
 9. Where can I get a few more(books，etc.)? (Palmer)
 我在哪里可以再得到一些(书，等等)?
 下面再举两例类似的误译：
 (1) So，projecting the figures we have for the country as a whole，it is a fair certainty that not
 less than 150，000 people were reported to the police as missing last year——and probablynearer a quarter of a million. Anyway，there are vast numbers more who go adrift and arenot reported at all.
 [原译]因此根据全国各地的报告估计去年报失踪案的人数肯定不少于15万—或许接近25万，而更多的在外流浪的人没有全部报案。(《英美短篇时文选读》)
 [试译]……此外(更何况)，还有大量在外流浪的人根本就没有报失踪。
 (2) Mr. Smith has just gotten twenty more head of cattle.
 [原译] 史密斯先生刚得到20多头牛。(《大学英语疑难问题解答》，P.33)[试译] 史密斯先生刚刚又买了20头牛。
