more/another

核心问题

If you want to change for a double room you'll have to pay ____ S 15.

A. another B other C. more D. each (全国高考,00-27)

moreanother 都作“另外的”解,而且都可译作“再”“又”,那为什么上题只能选 another,而不能选 more 呢?

词典解答

在这种用法中,虽然 moreanother 的词义相同,但它们的用法不同。more 用于数词 + more + 复数名词结构,而 another 用于 another + 数词 + 复数名词结构。请对比:

two more days = another two days

15 more dollars = another $ 15

例句分别见 more 1,2^{1,2} , another 1,2^{1,2}

练习题

请做下面的英语试题:

Have you finished your report yet?

No, I'll finish it in ____ ten minutes.

A. another B. other C. more D. less(全国高考,95-27)
