前三题是讲如何表达倍数的,第一题是说他做这件事的时间是我的三分之一.
再如:
he is one-third/three times the age of me.他是我年龄的三分之一/三倍大.有了这个句子,你就知道第三句是怎么一回事了.你可以依此照出很多相似的句子.
如:中国疆土是日本的五十倍大(假设):CHina is fifty times the size of Japan.当然,比较简单的表示倍数的方法你可以用:China is fifty times as big as Japan.
第二题也是一样.这里房租很贵,空间只有我家一半,但租金却是我原先付的三倍.而刚刚上面说了,"X times as much/big/large/或其他形容词 as"是常见的表示倍数的方法.所以完整的说租金是我原先付的三倍可以是:The rent i pay now is three times as much as that I paid before.注意比较的主体对等问题.因为比较的主语是rent所以后来我用了that以免重复.
当然还可以说:I pay three times as much as i did before.而第二题则是最后省掉了as I did 这部分.
第四题严格讲还是在比较倍数,不过是等价的情况.刚刚说的比较时一定要注意主体对等.因为Few pleasures对等的是热天喝冷饮的pleasure.而英语的习惯一词重复出现是会用that替代的,而这里能替代的就只有that了.those是可以替代,可替代的是复数名词,不符题意.
第五题后面加’S是因为这是在问:还可能是谁的呢?如果没有's,则成了,还可能是谁呢?
第六题:用ALL表示说:你就只想去逛街购物.all you (ever) want to do is...意为你一心只想做某事.其他都没有这个用法.
