简简单单的“more than”，用法可多呢！
下面是些好例子：
● A. “More than＋名词”表示“多于……”、“非但……尤其是”如：
1) Modern science is more than a large amount of information.
2) Jason is more than a lecturer; he is a writer, too.
● B. “More than＋数词”含“以上”或“不止”之意，如：
3) I have known David for more than 20 years.
4) Let's carry out the test with more than the sample copy.
● C. “More than＋形容词”等于“很”或“非常”的意思，如：
5) In doing scientific experiments, one must be more than careful with the instruments.
6) I assure you I am more than glad to help you.
● D. 在“More...than...”中，肯定“more”后面的而否定“than”后面的，约等于“是……而不是……”如：
7) The difference between pure linguistics and applied linguistics is more apparent than real.
8) This book seems to be more a manual than a text.
9) Catherine is more diligent than intelli-gent.
10) Hearing the loud noise, the boy was more surprised than frightened.
● E. “More than”或“More...than...”＋含“can”的分句时表示“否定意”，如：
11) That's more than I can do.
12) Don't bite off more than you can chew.
13) In delivering his lecture, Jason makes sure not to include more things than the students can understand.
● F. “No more...than...”表示“不……；不如……”，如：
14) I can no more do that than anyone else.
15) A learner can no more obtain knowledge without reading than a farmer can get good harvest without ploughing.”
“No more…...than...”的语义，也可用“not any more than...”来取代，因此 15 可以变成 16。
16) A learner cannot... any more than ...”同样的， 17可以变成18：
17) Dr Hu is no more a poet than Dr Wu is a philosopher.
18) Dr Hu is not a poet any more than Dr Wu is a philosopher.
此外，“more than”也在一些惯用语中出现，如：
19) More offen than not （经常），people tend to pay attention to what they can take rather than what they can give.
20) All of us are more than a little concerned about（非常关心）the current economic problems.
总之，“more than”看似简单，其实很有内涵，味道隽永。
