⑤连接两个谓语时,rather than 后一般接doing ◆Why didn't you ask for help, rather than trying to do it on your own? 你干吗非得要自己干,而不请人帮忙呢? 注意:rather than 连接两个主语时,谓语动词应该按“承前一致原则”,即和第一个主语在人称和数上保持一致。 ◆He rather than I, I think, is to blame. 我认为是他而不是我该受到责备。 rather than表示对后者的否定,有“而不是……”的语义。 Rather than allow the vegetables to go bad, she sold them at half price. other than 表示对后者的排除,有“除了……”的语义,相当于except。 I don't care about anything other than what I'm willing to do. more than 表示超出了这一概念范畴,有“不止是……” In some places, bottled water costs more than a glass of beer. Most people would agree that nuclear science should be developed to benefit the human beings______ harm them. A. rather than B. other than C. less than D. more than A 语义是:大部分人赞成核科学的开发应当造福于人类而不是危害他们。rather than表示否定;other than表示排除;less than 表示少于;more than 表示超过,所以答案是A。 2、thanks to Thanks to the English language,we can learn a lot from other countries. |
