语法分析

“另外，据调查，对自己工作不满意的日本员工比另外10个国家的员工人数要多得多。”

In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than

did their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed.

问：用“than their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed.”不行吗？为什么要用did ?而且还能放在比较状语从句主语their counterparts的前面，did这里代表什么意思和那个动作？

In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than did their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed.

这个句子，surveyed 是过去分词作定语，修饰 counterparts（相应的人）。

1. did 是替代词，替代主句谓语的 expressed dissatisfaction。

2. 该句非常有意思，把 did 提到句首形成倒装、以及把 surveyed 放在被修饰词之后，都是为了强调作用，也是句子表达多样化的体现。

3. 网友的意思是去掉 did，也没问题。即：

In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed.

4. 此外，还可把 surveyed 直接放在从句的主语之前：

In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than their surveyed counterparts in the 10 other countries did.

In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than their surveyed counterparts in the 10 other countries.

5. 但最好是两个动词别挨着：

In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed did.
