Question

What a wonder! They’ve finished ________ 30% of the task within a week.

A. no more than　　 B. no less than　　　　　　  C. not more than    D. much less than

 

Answer 1

答案：B
提示：

根据句意“真是个奇迹！在一个星期里他们至少完成了百分之三十的任务”，其中的“至少”应该用no less than，表不“不比……少；至少”。现将易混词组作简要小结：     at least=at the least=no fewer than=no less than至少；无论如何     at most=at the most=no more than最多     ①no more than“仅仅：只有；只不过”，含有强烈的感情色彩，表示说话者主观上认为“少”。反义：no less than“有……之多，＝as many／much as     ②not more than=less than“不到；少于”，是客观陈述，无感情色彩，如：     There are no more than 20 students in their class。他们班只有二十个学生。     There are not more than 20 students in their class.他们班有不到二十个的学生。     The book is no more interesting than that one. 这本书和那本书一样没意思。
