“数词+more”与“another+数词”

2007年的安徽高考英语有这样一道题:

The school’s music group will be giving a big show tomorrow night and two _________ on the weekend.

A. more                 B. other                  C. else                   D. another

此题答案选A。two more的意思是“另外两场”。more用于数词后,表示数量的增加,即表示在原有基础上又增加了若干数量。注意不要选D,因为another与数词搭配时,总是要放在数词之前。下面我们来看看这两个结构的用法:

一、“数词+more”的用法

Three more of the missing climbers have been found. 失踪的登山者又找到了3个。

How many more stamps do you want?—Four more please. 你还要多少张邮票?——请再给4张。

If he had received six more votes, he would be our chairman now. 如果他多得六票,现在就是我们的主席了。

二、“another+数词”的用法

I shall stay another five months. 我将再待五个月。

They drove for another three hours. 他们又行驶了3个小时。

The strike may last another six weeks. 罢工可能还要持续六个礼拜。

China picked up another ten gold medals. 中国又获得了10枚金牌。

The last time we talked he said he needed another two days. 上次我们谈话时他说他还需要两天。

三、两点用法说明

1. 当其中的数词为one时,我们可以说one more,但一般不用another one。如:

He decided to have one more try. 他决定再试一次 (自www.hxen.com)。

Surely you can put it off one more week. 肯定你可以把它再推迟一个礼拜。

I was wondering if I must ask you one more question. 我不知道我是不是还需要再向你提一个问题。

在意义上该用another one的地方,英语通常只用another。如:

She’s going to have another baby. 她又快有孩子了。

It’s cold I need another blanket. 太冷了——我再要一条毯子。

不过,如果其中的one不是数词,而是代词,则可以用another one。如:

This pen doesn’t work. I must buy another one. 这支钢笔坏了。我该另买一支了。

Your car, which I noticed outside, has been hit by another one. 我在外面看见你的汽车了,它给另一辆车撞了。

If you children closed up a bit there’d be room for another one on this seat.  你们几个孩子要是挤一挤,这座位上还能加一个人。

即使其中的one不是数词而是代词,英语也通常省略another one中的one。如:

I didn’t like the red skirt, so I asked to see another (one). 我不喜欢那条红裙子,所以我要求看另外一条。

2. 当其中的数词为few时,英语可以说another few。如:

I’m staying for another few weeks. 我还要再呆几个星期。

I need another few days before l can make up my mind. 我还需几天才能决定。

对于more而言,英语通常的搭配是a few more。如:

I advise waiting a few more days. 我建议再等几天。

Wet weather may continue for a few more days. 多雨的天气可能还要持续好几天。
