想问一下 no wiser than 和 not more than 有什么区别:
He is no wiser than his brother.他和他哥哥一样笨。
He is not wiser than his brother.他没他哥哥聪明。
想问一下 no 和 not 都是副词修饰 wiser 吗? 为何这两句翻译差这么大,用语法规则能讲解吗?
1.no+比较级+than“和…一样地不…”,意味着两者都否定,但总是着重说明前面的一个分句,其用途等于“neither…nor”。比如:
Mary is no more diligent than Tom. = Neither Mary nor Tom is diligent. 玛丽和汤姆两个人都不勤奋。
2. not+比较级+than“不如…;不及于…”,语气常着重于后面的一个分句,常可与“not so/as … as”互换用。比如:
This story is not more interesting than that one. = This story is not so/as interesting as that one. 这个故事不如那个故事有趣。
