高中英语新教材的人教版必修1(p13)有这样两句:
Do you like dancing better than acting?
这是个省略句吧!如何把省略的成分补出来呢?
than 后面省略了与主句重复的 you like,即:
Do you like dancing better than acting?
=Do you like dancing better than (you like) acting?
这种省略有时可能会导致歧义,尤其是当than后面接的是人称代词,有时用主格或宾格会导致意思的变化。比较:
I like you better than he (likes you). 我比他更喜欢你。
I like you better than (he likes) him. 我喜欢你胜过喜欢他。
