19、格后面是个专有名词，肯定是比较从句的主语，空格处明显缺从句的谓语动词，只有（A）符合条件，故选（A）。注意than eastern Nebraska does 是正确的语序，但是原文中使用了倒装；在比较结构的后面部分中，如果比较从句的主语长，谓语动词短，动词可放到主语前面进行到装。 Hot objects emit _do cold objects. （A） rays more than infrared （B） rays are more infrared than （C） more than infrared rays （D） more infrared rays than emit为及物
20、动词，空格处缺宾语和引导比较从句的than, 只有（D）符合条件。注意空格后为倒装形式，do代替emit以避免重复。此题为常考的句子结构。2、对称性比较结构中还需要注意相互比较的必须属于同一种事物,例例3：The activities of the international marketing researcher are frequently much broader than_. （A） the domestic marketer has （B） the domestic marketer does （C） those of the domestic marketer （D） that
21、which has the domestic marketer 本题还是考查比较句，由于谓语动词是系动词are, 故先排除与其不对应的以has和does结尾的（A）和（B）。选项D则语义不清，也可排除。C中those代替前面提到的activities以避免重复，those一定要具备，因为只有这样才能满足比较的都是activities，谓语动词are因与主句谓语动词相同而被省略，因此C为正确答案。例4：The annual worth of Utahs manufacturing is greater than -. （A） that of its mining and farming comb
22、ined （B） mining and farming combination （C） that mining and farming combined （D） of its combination mining and farming 本题为比较句，一般来说，比较的双方应属于同一类事物。（B）、（C）、（D）均无法与the annual worth相对应，故可以排除。（A）中代词that代替 the annual worth, 是英语中常见的避免重复的用法，故选（A）。3. 省略性than和as引导的比较状语从句，如果意义明确，than和as后面的任何部分都可省略。A 当不同的主语进行比较时
23、，一般省略从句中的谓语；（1） He is taller than his brother （is） . （2） You hate him as much as I （hate him） . （3）We were as fortunate as them （they were）B 当从句中的主语与谓语（ be 动词除外）和主句中的主语与谓语相同时，通常省略从句中的主语和谓语，只保留比较的部分。（ 1） My mother is much better now than （ she was ） when I wrote to you last week. （ 2） I have as much
24、confidence in you as （ I have confidence ） in him. （3 ） We are less credulous than we used to be than 后面省略了表语 - than we used to be （credulous）C. 从句中的主语和谓语与主句的都不相同，有时可以省略主语（或将than看作代词作为从句的主语。）（1）He eats more than （it） is good for him.（2）She has finished the work earlier than （it has been ） expected. （3）There were not so many tickets available as （they） were asked for.
