问题描述：
---Oh,how fat he is!---But i think he is____ than fat.A.short B.shorter C.more short D.shortest
选哪个?请说明,
答
选C.意思是：与其说他胖,倒不如说他矮.
同一个人或事物在两个不同的方面进行比较时,常译为“（更多的）是……,而不是”、“与其……不如……”等.按英语习惯,这种比较只能用more构成比较级,不能用-er形式,即使是单音节词也是如此.再如：
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.
