表示倍數(shù)的比較級(jí)有如下幾種句型:
A is three(four,etc.)times the size(height,length,width,etc.)of B.
The new building is four times the size(the height)of the old one.
這座新樓是那座舊樓的四倍大(四倍高);(高三倍)
A is three(four,etc.)times as big(high,long,wide,etc.)as B.
Asia is four times as large as Europe.亞洲是歐洲的四倍大。
A is three(four,etc.)times bigger(higher,longer,wider)than B.
例如:Your school is three times bigger than ours.
你們的學(xué)校比我們的學(xué)校大三倍。
表示兩倍可以用twice 或double。
如果復(fù)數(shù)名詞前有many、few,不可數(shù)名詞前有much、little等表示量的形容詞時(shí),該用so而不用such。
如:
I've had so many falls that I'm black and blue all over.
Mr White got so little money a month that he could hardly keep body and soul together.
但little不表示數(shù)量而表示“小”的意思時(shí),仍用such。如:
They are such little children that the they cannot clean the house by themselves.
almost與nearly
在very,pretty,not后用nearly,不用almost。例如:
I'm not nearly ready.
在any,no,none,never前用almost,不用nearly。例如:
I almost never see her.
