※ 引述《weei (weei)》之铭言：
: This was a matter less of morals than of expediency.
: 我自己的翻法:
: 这是比较少道德问题的权宜之计
: 对吗??
: 这个句子应该要怎麽看才对??这句子是不是省略了某些字??
其实C大在推文里已经说得很清楚了
这里原谅我再多罗嗦几句
希望如此一来以後遇到类似的句子都能迎刃而解
教科书上一般教法是
less A than B 1.不是A而是B
2.是B甚於是A
3.与其说是A不如说是B
例句
eg. The key to his success lies less in luck than in diligence.
他成功的关键与其说是在於运气，不如说是在於勤勉。
我从参考书上得到的整理如下
less A than B
= more B than A
= not so much A as B
也就是上述的例句可以改成
The key to his success lies less in luck than in diligence.
= The key to his success lies more in diligence than in luck.
= The key to his success lies not so much in luck as in diligence.
有误或补充请不吝指教^^
感谢
