例1:Western Nebraska generally receives less snow than ______ eastern Nebraska.
(A) does
(B) in
(C) it does in
(D) in it does
分析:than引導(dǎo)比較狀語(yǔ)從句,空格后面是個(gè)專有名詞,肯定是比較從句的主語(yǔ),空格處明顯缺從句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞,只有(A)符合條件,故選(A)。注意than eastern Nebraska does 是正確的語(yǔ)序,但是原文中使用了倒裝;在比較結(jié)構(gòu)的后面部分中,如果比較從句的主語(yǔ)長(zhǎng),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞短,動(dòng)詞可放到主語(yǔ)前面進(jìn)行到裝。
例2: Hot objects emit ______ do cold objects.
(A) rays more than infrared
(B) rays are more infrared than
(C) more than infrared rays
(D) more infrared rays than
分析:emit為及物動(dòng)詞,空格處缺賓語(yǔ)和引導(dǎo)比較從句的than, 只有(D)符合條件。注意空格后為倒裝形式,do代替emit以避免重復(fù)。此題為?嫉句子結(jié)構(gòu)。
比較結(jié)構(gòu)中還需要注意相互比較的必須屬于同一種事物
例3:The activities of the international marketing researcher are frequently much broader than ______.
(A) the domestic marketer has
(B) the domestic marketer does
(C) those of the domestic marketer
(D) that which has the domestic marketer
分析:本題還是考查比較句,由于謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是系動(dòng)詞are, 故先排除與其不對(duì)應(yīng)的以has和does結(jié)尾的(A)和(B)。選項(xiàng)D則語(yǔ)義不清,也可排除。C中those代替前面提到的activities以避免重復(fù),those一定要具備,因?yàn)橹挥羞@樣才能滿足比較的都是activities,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞are因與主句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞相同而被省略,因此C為正確答案。
例4:The annual worth of Utah's manufacturing is greater than ______.
(A) that of its mining and farming combined
(B) mining and farming combination
(C) that mining and farming combined
(D) of its combination mining and farming
分析:本題為比較句,一般來(lái)說(shuō),比較的雙方應(yīng)屬于同一類事物。句中主語(yǔ)顯然是比較的一方,而空格處應(yīng)是與之相對(duì)應(yīng)的另一方。(B)、(C)、(D)均無(wú)法與the annual worth相對(duì)應(yīng),故可以排除。(A)中代詞that代替 the annual worth, 是英語(yǔ)中常見(jiàn)的避免重復(fù)的用法,故選(A)。
