推 LOVEMOON3427: 3)沒有連接詞且後面已經有動詞 所以前面那句不能在
→ LOVEMOON3427: 選動詞
→ LOVEMOON3427: 2) Speak to sb about Sth
推 Jay0909     : Not less than =more than  相對的 not more than =
→ Jay0909     :  less than
→ Jay0909     : 第三題是分詞構句
→ Jay0909     : 你會看成 no more是因為 have no ~搞混了吧
→ dunchee     : 1. B,C都對。像題目句子那樣和have搭配的使用情況 "
→ dunchee     : he had no more than ..."較常見
→ dunchee     : no more than不是只有一種意思
→ dunchee     : http://tinyurl.com/gtkjbeq  <-- 這個
→ dunchee     : http://tinyurl.com/jjajybo
→ dunchee     : NY Times: http://tinyurl.com/h3j52cd  找
→ dunchee     : ".... he had no more than $2,500 left, ...."
→ dunchee     : 此處的no more than是突顯和之前超過 $100 million
→ dunchee     : 資產相比之下，死時的 $2,500 是極小的數目。實際數
→ dunchee     : 目很有可能是小於 $2,500 (大致取個整數，畢竟和
→ dunchee     : $100 million相比之下，$2456.87 或是 $2500 ，沒差
→ dunchee     : 都是"not large"的數目)
→ dunchee     : 反正這是抄來的(非英文母語的人編的)題目，正式考試
→ dunchee     : 不會這樣子考(BC選項同時出現)
→ dpg         : 謝謝各位解答,感激^^
