比较结构考点 ‎◆典型陷阱题分析◆‎ ‎1. How beautifully she sings! I have never heard _____ voice.‎ A. a better B. a best C. the better D. the best ‎ ‎【陷阱】容易误选D，认为最高级前要用定冠词。‎ ‎【分析】其实此题最佳答案为A，该句可视为…I have never heard a better voice than her voice 之省略，全句句意为“她唱得多好啊！我从未听过她这么好的声音”。请再看以下类似的实例：‎ He is fine, never better. 他很好，比以往任何时候都好。‎ This bird is really lovely. I’ve never seen a finer one. 这只鸟真可爱，我从未见过这样好看的鸟。‎ 比较以下试题，情形也大致相同：‎ ‎(1) “I’ve never found a better job.” “_______.”‎ A. I don’t think so B. Too bad C. Congratulations D. Don’t worry 答案选C，I’ve never found a better job可视为 I’ve never found a better job than this job 之省略，句意为：我从来没有找到比这份工作更好的工作，即这是我所找到的最好的工作。‎ ‎(2) “What do you think of the service here?” “Oh, ______. We couldn’t have found a better place.”‎ A. too bad B. sorry C. wonderful D. impossible 答案选 C。We couldn’t have found a better place 可视为We couldn’t have found a better place than this place，其意为“我们不可能找到一个比这个地方更好的地方”，即“这是我们所能找到的最好的地方”。‎ ‎(3) Boris has brains. In fact, I doubt whether anyone in the class has _____IQ.‎ A. a high B. a higher C. the higher D. the highest 答案选B，句意为“……我怀疑班上有没有哪个人比他智商更高”，即“我认为他可能是班上智商最高的”。‎ ‎(4) . How cold it is! We’ve never had ______ this winter.‎ A. the colder day B. a cold day C. the coldest day D. a colder day 答案选D。句意为“今年冬天我们还从未遇上过这样冷的日子”。‎ ‎2. Professor White has written some short stories, but he is _____ known for his plays. ‎ A. the best B. more C. better D. the most ‎【陷阱】容易误选D。‎ ‎【分析】此题首先不宜选B或D，因为 well known 的比较级和最高级通常是 better known和best known，有时也可以是 more well known 和 most well known，但通常不能是 more known 和 most known。至于是选A还是C，这就要看语境。由于句中涉及的只有 stories 和 plays 两个对象，故应选比较级。‎ ‎3. You are _____ careful than your brother. You two can’t do the work that needs care and skill. ‎ A. not more B. no more C. not less D. no less ‎【陷阱】容易误选A。‎ ‎【分析】要做对此题，首先要正确理解以下结构的含义：‎ not more … than = 不如……‎ no more … than = 和……一样不 (否定两者)‎ not less … than = 不如……不 (即指不如 less 后形容词的反面)‎ no less … than = 和……一样 (肯定两者)‎ 比较以下各句的意思：‎ You are more careful than he is. 你比他仔细。‎ You are not more careful than he is. 你不如他仔细。‎ You are no more careful than he is. 你和他一样不仔细。‎ You are less careful than he is. 你不如他仔细（你比他粗心）。‎ You are not less careful than he is. 你比他仔细（你不如他粗心）。‎ You are no less careful than he is. 你和他一样仔细。‎ 通过以上分析，再结合句子语境，可知此题最佳答案为B。‎ ‎4. “Oh, how fat he is!” “But I think he is ____ than fat.”‎ A. short B. shorter ‎ C. more short D. shortest ‎【陷阱】容易误选B。认为 short为单音节形容词，故用-er构成比较级。‎ ‎【分析】其实正确答案应是C。要弄清此问题，得先从比较句型的两种不同类型说起：‎ ‎(1) 异类同质比较：即指两个不同的人或事物(异类)在同一方面(同质)进行比较。如：‎ My room is smaller than yours. 我的房间比你的小。‎ Our country is more powerful than theirs. 我们的国家比他们的国家更强大。‎ ‎(2) 同类异质比较：即指同一个人或事物(同类)在两个不同的方面(异质)进行比较，这类句子常译为“(更多的)是……，而不是”、“与其……不如……”等。如：‎ He was more lucky than clever.他是靠运气而不是靠聪明。‎ She was mare surprised than angry. 她感到更多的是惊讶而不是生气。‎ This is more a war movie than a western. 这更应当说是一部战争片，而不是西部片。‎ 按英语习惯，在进行同类异质比较时，只能用more构成比较级，不能用-er形式，即使是单音节词也是如此。‎ ‎◆精编陷阱题训练◆‎ ‎1. In my apartment there are two rooms, _____ is used as a living room.‎ A. larger one B. the larger of which C. the largest one D. the largest of which ‎2. “Are you satisfied with his answer?” “Not at all.

If there were no examinations, we should have ______ at school.‎ A. the happiest time　　 B. a more happier time　‎ C. much happiest time　 D. a much happier time ‎11. This dress is prettier, but it costs ______ that one.‎ A. twice more than B. twice as much as C. as much twice as D. twice so much as ‎【答案与解析】‎ ‎1. 选B，由于是两个房间，即是两者比较，故宜用比较级，因此排除C和D；又由于两句之间没有连词，故不宜选A。注：若在空格前加上and 一词，则要选A。‎ ‎2. 选B。此题关键是要理解 Not at all 的意思。根据上文语境，Not at all 为 I am not satisfied at all with his answer 之省略，即表示“我对他的回答一点也不满意”，既然如此，他的回答当然会是 It couldn’t have been worse（不可能更糟）。‎ ‎3. 选 C，句意为“我的算术比琼差，但我的历史比她强”。注意句中的转折连词 but 及其后的 better。‎ ‎4. 选A，we couldn’t have picked a worst day 的实际意思是 it is the worst day we’ve picked。 ‎ ‎5. 选A，a better 为 a better one 之省略。另外，a better one（一个更好的）是与其前文“我知道这不是一个很适合的词”相呼应的。‎ ‎6. 选A。根据空格后的than，排除B和D；根据语境，排除C。‎ ‎7. 选D。more 后不能比较级，故排除A；quite 除用于quite better外，不用于修饰比较，故排除B；very 不用修饰比较级，故排除C。‎ ‎8. 选A。若选B或C均不合事实；若选D，不合语法，因为few 后要接可数名词的复数形式。‎ ‎9. 选B。从句意看，空格处应填比较级bigger，因此排除A和C。选项B与D的区别是，一个用了不定冠词，一个用了定冠词，两者的区别是，不定冠词表泛指，定冠词表特指。‎ ‎10. 选D。由于是将有考试与没有考试作比较，所以应用比较级，不用最高级，由此排除A和C。选项B的错误在于用了more happier这样的双重比较级（即more后不能再加比较级）。‎ ‎11. 选B。修饰as…as的副词应置于该结构之前。‎
