例1 Americans eat vegetables per person today as they did in 1910.
A.more than twice B.as twice as many
C.twice as many asD.more than twice as many
思路分析:该题考查倍数表达法。其中一种方法是“倍数+as+形容词+as...”,如果形容词后带有修饰的名词,要将名词放在as...as结构的中间,形容词之后。
答案:D
深化升华 注意此处空半格英语中常用的倍数句型:
1)倍数增加
A is n times as great(long,much,...)as B.
A is n times greater(longer,more,...)than B.
A is n times the size(length,amount,...)of B.
以上三句都应译为:A的大小(长度,数量,……)是B的n倍[或A比B大(长,多,……)n-1倍]
2)倍数减少
a is n times as small(light,slow,...)as b.
