  I. more than

  1. 表“多于、超过”,其后面常跟数词或相当于数词的词。如:

  More than 1,000 people attended the meeting. 一千多人参加了会议。

  You don't need to bring me more than a few magazines. 你只要带少数几本杂志就够了。

  2. more than用于形容词、名词、动词之前,表示“不止、超过”。如:

  She is more than pretty. 她何止漂亮。

  Hibernation is more than a sleep. 冬眠何止是一种睡眠。

  Bamboo is used for more than building. 竹子不仅仅用来造房子。

  I more than saw it, I felt it too! 我不仅仅是看见了它,我都感觉到它了。

  3. more than 用于比较从句中,表示“更、胜过”,可以省去主语部分谓语,保留宾语。如:

  I love him more than her. 我爱他胜过爱她。

  It's natural that a mother loves her baby even more than her life. 很自然的,一个母亲爱她的婴儿甚至胜过她自己的生命。

  II. more... than...

  1. 用于表语中,比较两个形容词,这时不管形容词有多少个音节,都要用“more+形容词... than+形容词”结构,其意思相当于“是……而不是、与其说是……不如说是”。如:

  That little girl is more shy than timid. 那个小姑娘是害羞而不是胆怯。

  She is more diligent than clever. 与其说她聪明,不如说她勤奋。

  He looked more asleep than dead. 他看起来,与其说是死了,不如说是睡着了。

  2. more... than... 也可用于名词作表语的结构中。如:

  She is more mother than wife. 她是贤妻,更是良母。

  He is more friend than headmaster. 说他是校长,不如说他是朋友。

  以上两句还可以写成:

  She is more a mother than a wife. 或She is more of a mother than a wife.

  He is more a friend than a headmaster. 或:He is more of a friend than a headmaster.

  3. more... than... 也可用于名词作主语的结构中。如:

  More women than men are good at doing at clever work. 女人比男人更善于做细致的工作。

  More children in villages than children in cities work hard at their lessons. 农村的孩子比城市的孩子更刻苦学习功课。

  4. more... than... 也可用于名词作宾语的结构中。如:

  It'll do you more harm than good. 它会对你害多益少。

  What he said brought his son more encouragement than discouragement. 他的话给他的儿子带来的鼓励多于泄气。

  5. more... than... 也可用于介词短语的结构中。如:

  He is more for her proposal than for my proposal. 他赞成我的提议,但更赞成她的提议。
