 than比较分句常采用省略结构。虽然省略的部分可以补全,但常常补全后的结构显得臃肿、繁琐。网友在知道了这一点之后,就无须每次遇到省略的比较分句都要想方设法补全,否则你就是钻牛角尖,语法非但不是你学英语的工具,反而成了你学英语的绊脚石了。所以,平时遇到比较结构,留心省略后的比较分句是什么样子,熟悉这些结构,模仿使用这些结构即可。不要让比较分句的补全成为无穷无尽的任务。几个例子就足以让你融会贯通的。以后就无须再补全。关键是要辨认出主句中的比较短语,我用下划线标出。

1:It is well established that multinationals pay higher wages than what is standard in developing nations. 

这个句子中,what从句只相当于一个名词词组,what=the wage that, 即这是一个以wage为中心词的名词词组。只需给这个词组补上省略了的is即可。虽然在实际应用中,than+what从句后都没有动词了,但既然than被认为是连词,连词就要引导从句,从句就必须有谓语动词。除非此时than被用作介词,介词+what从句构成介词短语,那就不存在所谓补全但问题了。所以:

(1)无须补全,than是介词。

(2)than是连词(即我说的比较代词),补全如下:

...than what is standard in developing nations is ( ) . 括号代表than所做的成分,或than为连词时从句必须具备的空位(gap).


2:A lawsuit accused Haward of setting a quota on admissions for Asian applicants and holding them to a heigher standard than other races. 

= ...than he held other races.


 3.He is more enthusiastic about putting sanctions on other countries than trying to end the chaos.

= ...than he is about trying to end the chaos.
