※ 引述《dpg (dpg)》之銘言:
: He was so poor that he had _____ than one hundred dollars.
: (A) not less
: (B) no more
: (C) not more
: (D) no less
: ans:C
: 不能選B的原因是?
: 誰能簡言之,感謝^^
: 看到網路上的說明:
: NOT less than:不少於;至少 (= at least)/像…那樣;到…的程度 (= as…as)
: I have not less than 100 kilograms. (我至少有100公斤)
: I am not less young than you are. (我像你那樣年輕;我和你一樣年輕)
: NO less than:多達;不下…之多/和…同樣是;正是
: There are no less than 50 students in our class. (我們班上的學生不下50人)
: The whale is no less a mammal than the horse. (鯨魚和馬一樣是哺乳類動物)
no more A than B 代表 neither A nor B
S1 ......no more.....than S2 代表S1及S2一樣不是
S1 ......no less ....than S2 代表S1及S2一樣是
******************************************************
no more than=only
no less than= as many (much) as
******************************************************
not more than= at most
not less than= at least
******************************************************
not more....than= less....than
not less ...than= more....than
回歸你的問題 He was so poor that he had ______ 100 dollars.
中文譯為: 他如此窮以致於他_______100元。試問原po覺得空格內填only還是at most
才能顯得他真的很窮呢??? 當然是at most---表示"至多"上限就是100元呀。
故答案選not more than較適當。
