【考点】more than的用法。

【归纳】more than 的用法比较复杂，它除了用于比较结构外，还可以与名词、形容词、动词或从句等连用，表达不同的含义。下面是more than 结构的一些常见用法：

1）more than后直接接名词.表示“不只是”；“不仅仅”等。例如：

Peace is more than the absence of war. 和平不只是意味着没有战争。

2）more than 用来修饰形容词、分词和动词，表示所修饰的词份量不重或含义不够, 而加以说明，译成汉语可为“非常”，相当于“very”或“much”。例如：

He is more than selfish. 他非常自私。

3） more than 后接单数名词，谓语动词用单数。例如：

More than one person has been concerned in this. 这里涉及的不止是一个人。

4） more A than B 结构。用来比较两种说法的正确程度，即前一种说法（A项）比后一种说法（B项）要正确一些，表示“与其……不如……”。在这个句型里，more 后不能用形容词或副词的比较级形式，而要用原级形式，此外还可用名词、代词、动词、介词短语等。例如：

① He is more good than bad.与其说他坏不如说他好。

② It is more a poem than a picture. 与其说这是一幅画，不如说这是一首诗。
