请问专家:形容工资或收入的高低与多少用 much 还是 high?
His wages are as ______ as mine.(much / high)
His income is ______ than mine.(more / higher)
请问该如何填?
第一句填high,第二句填more(much的比较级)。又如:
When wages are high, prices are high.工资高,物价也会相对的高。《简明英汉词典》
His income is not much, but he manages to live quite well on it. 他收入不多,但很会过日子。《现代汉英综合大词典》
▲高收入,低收入可用high/low。如:
high/low income groups 高[低]收入阶层《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》
Many families on low incomes will be unable to afford to buy their own home. 许多低收入家庭将会买不起自己的房子。《柯林斯高阶英汉双解词典》

His wages are as ______ as mine.(much / high)
His income is ______ than mine.(more / higher)
【答】用很简单的办法,即可判断选哪个答案。
第1句中的wages 是复数,意味着它是可数名词。可数名词不可以跟much 连用,但可以跟形容词high 连用。故选择high。
第2句中的income 是单数,它是一个“可变名词”—— 也是可数名词(不同的阶层有不同的收入,这时,它就是可数的),也是不可数名词(指一个人在某一阶段的“收入”)。所以,不可数名词可以跟much 连用(much 的比较级是more),也可以跟形容词high 连用。所以,第2句两个答案都对。
