下列幾種結(jié)構(gòu)均可表示比較:
1)如果要表達(dá)人與人、事與事等之間是相似的,可用as或like。如:Hes bit of a nob, as his father does.他這人有點(diǎn)勢(shì)利,就像他父親那樣。還有so do I, so am I, neither/nor do I等也表示相似。
2)當(dāng)要表達(dá)事物之間在某方面一樣時(shí),可用as:as:和as much/many:as:如,Learn as much as you can about what to expect in the future.對(duì)于預(yù)料將發(fā)生的事要盡量多做準(zhǔn)備。
3)表達(dá)事物之間差別的結(jié)構(gòu)可采用more :than與其……不如……,no less then簡(jiǎn)直是,實(shí)在是;It is that...but that...這不是說(shuō)……,而是說(shuō)……。后可接形容詞、副詞、動(dòng)詞或名詞。more:than可譯作“與其說(shuō)……不如說(shuō)”。如,…the socalled division between the pure scientist and the applied scientist is more apparent than real.(考研試題)。理論科學(xué)家和應(yīng)用科學(xué)家之間的所謂區(qū)分,與其說(shuō)是實(shí)際的,不如說(shuō)是表面的。
例Science moves forward, they say, not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools.(1994年真題)
分析:本句屬于比較結(jié)構(gòu),含有一個(gè)比較結(jié)構(gòu)not so much...as“與其說(shuō)……不如說(shuō)”。they為插入語(yǔ)。through the insights of great men of genius和because of more ordinary things為兩個(gè)狀語(yǔ)。like improved techniques and tools為介詞短語(yǔ)作定語(yǔ),修飾things.
譯文:他們說(shuō),科學(xué)的發(fā)展與其說(shuō)源于天才偉人的真知灼見,不如說(shuō)源于改進(jìn)了的技術(shù)和工具等更為普通的東西。
