復(fù)雜的比較級(jí)的拆分和理解 例176

例176　Nobody with any sense expects to find the truth in advertisements about the quality of products any more than he expects a man to describe his shortcomings, which reflects the human nature of some people.

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】這句話是個(gè)no (any) more than...結(jié)構(gòu)，表示前者沒(méi)有，后者也一樣沒(méi)有，前后都否定。any more than前面的主語(yǔ)是Nobody，動(dòng)詞是expects to find，賓語(yǔ)是the truth，后面加介詞短語(yǔ)in advertisements about the quality of products，做定語(yǔ)，修飾前面的賓語(yǔ)，any more than后面的主干是he expects a man to describe his shortcomings，后面是整個(gè)句子的非限性定語(yǔ)從句which reflects the human nature of some people。

【亮點(diǎn)回放】此句話的亮點(diǎn)在于no (any) more than...結(jié)構(gòu)，表示前者沒(méi)有，后者也一樣沒(méi)有，前后都否定。比如I don't love singing any more than you love dancing，翻譯成“我不喜歡唱歌就像你不喜歡跳舞一樣”。

【核心詞匯】

with any sense　從任何意義說(shuō)

the quality of products　產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量

shortcomings　缺點(diǎn)

human nature　人性

【參考譯文】沒(méi)有人從任何意義上能夠發(fā)現(xiàn)廣告宣傳產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量的真實(shí)情況，就像一個(gè)人不要期待面試者在面試中說(shuō)自己缺點(diǎn)一樣，這是人性使然。
