I have as fancy a car as that one.

您好。

看到赖世雄老师的语法书里有一个例句：I have as fancy a car as that one. (我有一辆车和那辆一样炫）。

这个例句中的as 从句显然省略了主语和谓语。

可是另外一个例句却不能这样简化: I love you more than I love Mary，否则会引起歧义。

只能简化为I love you more than I do Mary.

请问是否只要不会引起歧义，就可以像第一个例句那样去简化呢？

I have as fancy a car as that one.

——此句改为 I have a car as fancy as that one (is). 让fancy 作表语，而不是定语，就好懂了。因为 that one 不是 I have 的宾语。跟这句不一样：I have as much gold as silver. 这句 silver 也是 I have 的宾语。

I love you more than I love Mary.

——此句，than 比较从句不能省略成分。主从句的主语和谓语动词完全相同，但宾语不同，此时，无法省略成分。如果省略了 I love，会造成歧义：

I love you more than Mary. =

1. I love you more than I love Mary.

2. I love you more than Mary loves you.
