6. The 比較級+S+V, the 比較級+S+V
說明:此句型表「越…,就會越…」,可以是形容詞或副詞比較級,判斷方式需依後方動詞做依據:
如果動詞為 Be-V 或連綴動詞,用形容詞比較級 (理由: Be-V 或連綴動詞原本後接形容詞);
若動詞為一般動詞則用副詞比較級 (理由: 副詞修飾一般動詞);另外,如果動詞為及物動詞,
亦有 the+比較級+N 的可能,請見例句。而在上下文語意夠清楚時,S + V 可省略。
例句:
(1) The more, the better.
多多益善。
(2) The older we grow, the weaker we are.
我們越老,越虛弱。 (以 grow older;are weaker 聯想)
(3) The more junk food people eat, the more likely they will become fat.
人們吃越多的垃圾食物,就越可能變胖。 (以 eat more junk food; likely become fat 聯想)
