The larger the main sequence stars, the hotter and brighter they are.
请问老师,前半句stars后面是否缺少are?还是说可以省略?
这种 the more...the mmore 条件 + 递进结构,经常省略成分,旨在简练顺口,两个 are 读起来有重复的感觉。
The larger the main sequence stars (are), the hotter and brighter they are.
两个分句都系表结构,表语前置,第一分句省略了系动词。

the more...the more...句型中的省略

【答】在the more...the more...句型中,系动词 be 可以省略。如:
The more earth-worms (are), the better the soil (is). 蚯蚓越多,土壤越好。(摘自《新编英语句型句法全解》p.416)
The fewer the words (are), the more effective the idea (is). 词越少,意境越生动。(同上)
