词组 | much more/much less |
释义 | much more/much less 【问】 ×She scarcely bothered to look at us,much more speak to us.(她连看都几乎懒得看我们,更不用说同我们谈话了。)这个句子有毛病吗? 【答】 much more只能用在肯定句之后: 1. He is kind to me,much more to my elder brother. 他对我很好,更不用说对我哥哥了(对我哥哥更是如此)。 2. It's difficult to understand him,much more his wife. 他的话很难懂,他妻子的话就更难懂了。 而She scarcely bothered to look at us.是一个否定句(见hardly,seldom,scarcely),故不能用much more,而必须换用much less。后者可以用在否定句之后: 1. I never think of it,much less say it. 我连想都没想到这件事,更不用说讲它了。 2. I never even spoke to the man,much less insulted him. (DAI) 我同这个人从未讲过话,更不用说侮辱他了。 赵振才 编著.英语常见问题解答大词典.哈尔滨:黑龙江人民出版社.1998.第728页. |
