They seek no more than to be respected for their contributions to society.
这里的seek no more than涉及到了比较结构吗,no more这里是代词做seek的宾语than之后的to be…与no more做比较?
译文:他们对社会的贡献只要求得到尊重。
这里的no more than(或 not any more than)的意思为“仅仅;只是;不过”,相当于副词 only或just。no more than多用于书面语;not any more than常用于口语。又如:
Though Schiller's aesthetics is universally appreciated today, this paper argues that what he did was no more than to provide a Utopia in aesthetic sense. 席勒美学虽在今天仍赢得人们普遍的赞誉,然而其思想只不过提出了一个审美乌托邦而已。
