托福語(yǔ)法技巧:than/as+代詞+助動(dòng)詞

字號(hào):

當(dāng)than或as的前后所用的動(dòng)詞相同時(shí),??梢杂弥鷦?dòng)詞代替第二個(gè)動(dòng)詞:
    I earn less than he does.
    我比他錢掙得少。
    主句與從句中的動(dòng)詞不必使用同一時(shí)態(tài):
    He knows more than I did at his age.
    他要比我在他這個(gè)年齡時(shí)懂得多。
    如從句由than/as+I(xiàn)/we/you+動(dòng)詞組成而時(shí)態(tài)并無(wú)變化時(shí),常常將動(dòng)詞省略:
    I’m not as old as you(are).
    我沒(méi)有你年齡大。
    He has more time than I/we(have).
    他的時(shí)間比我/我們多。
    正規(guī)英語(yǔ)中as/than后仍使用I/we,因?yàn)閯?dòng)詞雖被省略,代詞仍被看做是動(dòng)詞的主語(yǔ),因此仍用主格。但在非正式英語(yǔ)中,me/us更常用:
    He had more time than me.
    他比我時(shí)間多。
    They are richer than us.
    他們比我們富有。
    如than/as后跟he/she/it+動(dòng)詞,常常保留動(dòng)詞:
    You are stronger than he is.
    你比他強(qiáng)壯。
    但在極正式的英語(yǔ)中,可以用he/she/they而免去動(dòng)詞。在非??谡Z(yǔ)化的英語(yǔ)中可用him/her/them而免去動(dòng)詞。
    這些規(guī)則也適用于副詞比較級(jí):
    I swim better than he does/better than him.
    我游泳比他好。
    They work harder than we do/harder than us.
    他們比我們干得賣勁。
    You can’t type as fast as I can/as fast as me.
    你打字不如我快。
