英语中几种表示几倍大于关系的说法:
在表达一方是另一方的若干倍时,常用如下表达方式：（1）“……倍数＋as＋adj．／adv．（原级）＋ as……”,在两个as之间可用many（修饰可数名词）,much（修饰不可数名词）和其它相应的词.（2）“……倍数＋adj．／adv．（比较级）＋than……”（3）“……倍数＋the size ／height／length ／weight／ width /depth……＋of＋the＋名词”.
1.There are more than twice ______ five years ago.
a.as many books as

在下句中twice as many...as前后要一致,more than 修饰twice.
2.We are eating _______ vegetables per person today as they did in 1910．
A．more than twice

〔点拨〕“倍数”句型翻译有三种方式.（1）“倍数（百分数）＋形容词比较级＋than＋比较对象”,译作“增加……倍”或“是……的‘倍数＋1’倍”；（2）“倍数（百分数）＋as＋形容词原级＋as＋被比较对象”,译作“是……的多少倍”；（3）“倍数＋the＋名词＋of＋被比较对象”,其中常用的名词有size,length,width,depth等,也译作“是……的多少倍”.如“你们的操场比我们的操场大四倍（是我们操场的五倍大）”可分别译作：（1）Your playground is four times larger than ours．（2）Your playground is five times as large as ours．（3）Your playground is five times the size of ours．
