关于倍数+as...as 结构的疑问

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,a person driving a typical car is five times as likely to die if hit by a sport-utility vehicle than if hit by another car.

 

此句中倍数+as likely 结构后不是应该接as引导比较从句吗?不明白此处为何用than。麻烦各位老师

网友的句子有误。有两种改法:

1. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,a person driving a typical car is five times as likely to die if hit by a sport-utility vehicle as if hit by another car.

2. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,a person driving a typical car is five times more likely to die if hit by a sport-utility vehicle than if hit by another car.

【翻译】根据国家公路交通安全管理局的数据,驾驶一辆普通汽车的人被一辆运动型多功能车撞死的可能性,是被另一辆普通汽车撞死的五倍。

【分析】原句错误地把as 和than 混在一起使用。两个蓝色的if 从句是参与比较的两个事物。要么,as...as...,要么,more...than...,倍数five times 放在适当位置。

网友给出句子实际上是下面2种比较句型结构

(1)“… times +as + 形容词 / 副词的原级+ as …

Our house is five times as expensive as yous.

我们的房子要比你们的房子贵五倍

(2)“… times + more +adj./adv.+ than …”

我们的房子要比你们的房子贵五倍

(2)“… times +adj./adv. 比较级.+ than …”

(1)A+基数词+time as +形容词/副词原级+as +B(A是B的几倍)

在这种结构中,比较成分的前面常用表示倍数的词如···times(···倍),twice(两倍)等来表示相比较的两个成分相差的倍数,通常译作“像···几倍那样多”,“是···的几倍”。

“… times +as + 形容词 / 副词的原级+ as …

This room is three times as large as that one

这间屋子是那间的三倍大。

This red box is half as large as the blue one

(2)A+基数词+times +比较级+than+B(A比B《大,小,长》几倍)

This hole is five times deeper than that one

=This hole is six times as deep as that one

=This hole is six times the depth of that one

这个洞是那个洞的6倍深。

Their room is twice bigger than ours.

Their room is twice as big as ours.

Their room is twice the size of ours.

(3)“… times + more +名词+ than …”
