【Key structures】
比较状语从句
比较状语从句含有或暗含有“与……相比”的意思。除了 than…或 more…than…这种结构外，它还包括 as+形容词/副词+as…，not so/as…as…，less…than…等结构。当句子里两个动词相同、时态也一样时， 则第二个动词可以省略，比较从句就成了含蓄的从句。如果对比的东西很明显，那么为了避免重复，从句 中有些成分、甚至整个从句都省略，因此这类句子往往不完整。
People aren’t so kind as they used to be.
No, they’re becoming less kind. 是的，他们变得不那么友善了。
He is as quick in answering as his sister (is). He answers as quickly as his sister (does). He is not so/as quick as his sister.
little 和 few 的用法
little 和a little 与不可数名词一起使用。little 表示否定，有“几乎一点儿也没有”的含义，在口语中常
用 not much；a little 表示肯定，具有 some 的含义。
He has (very) little hope of winning this race.
=He hasn’t much hope of winning this race. Have we got any bread?
Yes, there’s a little/some in the fridge.
few 和 a few 与复数可数名词连用。few 表示否定，与 little 相似，在口语中多用 not many；a few 表示肯定，有 some 的含义。
They had few guests last weekend.
They didn’t have many guests last weekend. little 的比较级为 less，few 的比较级为 fewer。
During the holiday, there is less noise in the building.
There are fewer travelers than there usually are.
【Special Difficulties】A and One
不定冠词 a 通常用于表示不确定的人或事物以及第一次提到的人或事物，a 强调的是后面的名词； one
强调的是 “一个” 的意思：
It was one apple I ate, not two.
There is a book and a pen on the desk.
不表示强调时，a 和 one 有时可以互换：
She will come home in a/one week’s time.
叙述故事时常将 one+表示时间的名词用于句首，而不用 a： One Monday, he went to the office as usual.
