[A]to start [B]to have started

than作为专四语法的重点,考试中出现很多次了.常见的考法有如下两种:
• 连词 than 引导比较状语从句,有时省去部分谓语,保留了主语和助动词,此时助动词可以移到主语前。如:John drives much more carefully than does his father. (=than his father drives)
• 连词 than 引导比较状语从句,常省去主语,保留谓语部分,这种结构多见于正式文体中。如:Don’t eat more than is good for you.

[A]no more [B]not more [C]even more [D]much more
正确答案为B). 本题是该年专四考试中语法较难的一题. not more…than的意思是与其说…倒不如说…这里意思是: 人口过多对人类的威胁还不如对环境的破坏更为严重。A选项的意思是: 人口过多跟环境破坏一样对人类构不成什么威胁。通过这道题,试比较如下两句句子:John is not better than Tom约翰不如汤姆好。 (但是两人都不错) John is no better than Tom约翰比汤姆好不了多少。 (两个人都不怎么样)
not more than有两种用法:
1)[后接名词](=at most)作"不超过、至多"解。
There are not more than five books in the case. 箱子里至多有五本书。
He has learned not more than 100 words. 他学会的词不超过100个。
2)[后接从句]往往为"not more...than"形式,作"还比不上"解。本句型侧重点往往在后一个分句,译成汉语时,仍按原来的语序。
I am not more mad than you. 我哪里像你那么疯。
This book is not more interesting than that one. 这本书不如那本书有趣。
no more than用法:
1)[后接名词](=only)作"不过,仅仅"解。
He is no more than a puppet. 他不过是个傀儡。
2)[后接从句]这种结构在不同的语言环境里有三种不同的用法及含义。
作"没有比……更……"解,其形式往往为"no...more...than"。
There is no social problem it is more incumbent 义不容辞的upon us to understand than this of the role of custom.(L44, New Concept English, IV)
3) 作"同……一样不"解,相当于"not...just as...not"。本句型侧重点往往在前一个分句,译成汉语时通常要把分句的次序颠倒,才能表达出重点来。
The whale is no more a fish than the dog is.
=The whale is not a fish just as the dog is not a fish. 如同狗一样,鲸也不是鱼。
You can no more swim than I can fly.=You can not swim just as I can not fly. 你不能游泳正如我不能飞行一样
学习中尤其要注意no more...than和not more...than的区别:
no more...than含有消极,否定的意味,译为"A与B都不……,不……也不"等。
not more...than含有积极,肯定的意味,表示程度上的差异。比较:
He is no more diligent than you. 你不勤奋,他也不勤奋。(两人都不勤奋)
He is not more diligent than you. 他没有你那么勤奋。(意指两个人都勤奋,但你更勤奋)
