Mary’s house in Shanghai cost much more than ours in our hometown, though not half______.
A.much biggerB.as biggerC.very bigD.so big
D

试题分析:考察倍数表达法。本句是一个省略句,后面省略了as our house。倍数表达有四种:1. “A+倍数+形容词或副词的比较级+than+B”, 2.“A+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B”, 3. “A+倍数+the size/height/length/width, etc+of+B”, 4. “……times+what+从句”。本题考察了第二种,half 也是倍数。因为本句是一个否定句,所以使用so…as…;句意:Mary在上海的房子比我们家乡的房子更值钱,尽管还没有我们家里的房子的一半大。故D正确。
点评:倍数表达要牢记,倍数表达法是高中英语教学的重点,也是历届高考的热点。当我们要表达甲是乙的几倍时,通常用句型来表示:
1. “A+倍数+形容词或副词比较级+than+B”,表示“A比B大(长、高、宽等)多少倍”
This rope is twice longer than that one. 这根绳子是那根绳子的两倍长(比那根绳子长一倍)。
2.“A+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B”,表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。如:
Asia is four times as large as Europe. 亚洲的面积是欧洲的四倍。
3. “A+倍数+the size/height/length/width, etc+of+B”,表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。如:
This street is four times the length of that one. 这条街是那条街的四倍长。
4. “……times+what+从句”。如:
The production is now three times what it was ten years ago. 现在的产量比十年前增加了两倍。
