高招!用「否定+比較級」表達出「最高級」的含意

    

 

句型:there is nothing …
 
想表達某事物是「最👍」棒、「最👍」好的,英文通常會使用最高級文法。但今天要分享的是可以達到相同語意的句型:「there is nothing …沒有什麼能比得上…」,是以「否定語氣」表達出最高級含意,以下用法例句:
 

① there is nothing like +N/ V-ing 「沒有什麼能比得上……」

On a hot summer day, there's nothing like mango ice. It's so delicious!
在炎炎夏日裡,沒有什麼能比得上芒果冰,那真是太好吃了!
 
There is nothing like a cup of hot tea on a cold winter day.
沒有什麼能比得上寒冬裡的熱茶。
 
There is nothing like taking a hot bath after a weekend camping trip.
週末露營旅行後,洗個熱水澡是最棒的了。

② there is nothing + 形容詞比較級 + than +N/ V-ing  「沒有什麼比…更…的了」

There is nothing more exciting than seeing my favorite singer in person.
沒有什麼比親眼看到我最喜歡的歌手還更令人興奮了。
可解讀為 Seeing my favorite singer in person is the most exciting thing I can think of.(親眼看到我 最喜歡的歌手是我能想到最令人興奮的事。)
 
There is nothing more relaxing than taking a long bath after exercising.
沒有什麼比運動完好好泡個澡來個更放鬆了。

上述兩句型若要改為yes/no問句時,需把 nothing 改為 anything
