    40) look up:向上看
    e.g. He looked up and nodded to me.
    look up to:尊敬
    e.g. It must be rewarding to be looked up to by so many people.
    41) make one’s way:開(kāi)路
    e.g. As soon as he saw us, the teacher made his way through the crowd to greet us.
    make one’s way to:向……走去
    e.g. In the evening we made our way to the appointed meeting place.
    42) measure to:測(cè)量到某一精度
    e.g. Measure this part to mm.
    measure up to:夠得上,可以匹敵
    e.g. The new techniques measure up to advanced world standard.
    43) more than:很,非常
    e.g. He was more than upset by the accident.
    more…than:比……更
    e.g. I regarded her more highly than me.
    44) much as:雖然
    e.g. Much as I should like to go, I can’t go right now.
    as much:同樣的或同樣多少的
    e.g. You have always helped me and I will always do as much for you.
    45. no less than:不亞于,竟達(dá)……之多
    e.g. There were no less than one hundred people at the meeting.
    not less than:不比……差,至少
    e.g. There were not less than one hundred people at the meeting.
    請(qǐng)大家注意區(qū)分以上兩句的差別,第一句是指“竟達(dá)100人之多”,第二句則是“至少有100人”,要明白no less than是一種強(qiáng)調(diào)說(shuō)法,它和not less than的區(qū)別在于事先假定的程度或是數(shù)量有所不同,no less than在某種意義上說(shuō)來(lái)沒(méi)有超過(guò)的意思,而not less than可能會(huì)超過(guò),這種表達(dá)方式正好與no more than以及not more than相反。
    46. no more than:同樣不;僅僅,只有
    e.g. This book is no more interesting than that one.
    It is no more than empty talk.
    not more than:不比……更,不如;至多
    e.g. He is not more clever than you are.
    There were not more than 5 factories in our city before liberation.
    47. on sale:出售的;廉價(jià)出售
    e.g. Many new farm tools are on sale in this store.
    I got this book on sale; it was very cheap.
    for sale:出售的,上市的
    e.g. I shall put these goods up for sale.
    在作“出售的”的意思的時(shí)候,on sale和for sale還是有一些不同的,一般來(lái)說(shuō),for sale多指物主親自或委托代理人經(jīng)
