A is three(four, etc.)times as big(high, long, etc.)as B.

用times 表倍数通常用于三倍以上，两倍可以用twice或double.

The new building is four times the size (the height)of the old one.
这座新楼比那座旧楼大三倍（高三倍）。
Asia is four times as large as Europe.亚洲比欧洲大三倍。
Your school is three times bigger than ours.你们的学校比我们的学校大三倍。
7) more…than…结构，其意往往是…rather than…，可译为“是……而不是……”或颠倒词序译作“与其说是……，不如说是……”。

not more than=at most &nbsp;“不多于”，“至少”，指事实。
&nbsp; &nbsp;no more …than… 和…一样不… &nbsp; &nbsp; 如单音节使用比较级形式
&nbsp; &nbsp;not more…than… &nbsp;不比…更…
　　no less than= as much as &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “多达”
&nbsp;　no fewer than= as many as

例：I have no more than five yuan in my pocket. &nbsp;我口袋里的钱只不过5元。
I have not more than five yuan in my pocket. &nbsp;我口袋里的钱不多于5元。
&nbsp; &nbsp;He is no richer than I.他和我一样穷。
He is no less determined than you. &nbsp;他的决心不亚于你。
(no less determined than等于“其决心不亚于你”，言其大)
He is not less determined than you. &nbsp;他的决心不比你小。
(not less determined than等于“其决心不小于”，无言其大或小的含义)
10) 最高级＋of/ in/ among….
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; He is the tallest of the three/ among them/ in is class.

四．相关词语辨析
1.very 和much
A）very修饰形容词、副词的原级；much修饰比较级；修饰动词用much或very much ,
eg. I very like English.(×),因改为：I like English very much.
B) 表示状态的过去分词前用very。a very frightened boy, a very tired child .一般的情况下，以-ed结尾的分词多用much、very much / greatly等修饰。
如：We were greatly /much shocked by the news about Tom.. &nbsp;
C) 已转化为形容词的现在分词前用very。
如：very interesting / worrying / exciting
D）too前用much/ far ,不用very。
You are much / far / a lot too nice.
另外，在too many &nbsp; &nbsp;/ much, too few / little前用far。
We’ve got far too many eggs and far too few egg cups.　
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;E)还有修饰词既不用very,也不用much.
eg. be well worth doing, be well above the tree
2. so和such
A)so … that … 与such … that … 的区别。
so + &nbsp;形容词 / 副词 + &nbsp;that …
so + 形容词 + a（n）+ 单数可数名词 + that …
so + many / much / little / few + 名词 + that …
such + a(n)+ 形容词+单数可数名词 + that …
such + 形容词 + 不可数名词 + that …
such + 形容词 + 复数名词 + that …
注意： 但当little表示“小”时用such。
如：These are such little boys that they can’t dress t hemselves.
下列so的用法是错误的：
so a difficult problem, so difficult problems, so hot weather。
B) some/ any/ every/ no/ each/ all/ another/ several/ few/ many/ one/ two +such+n. eg. no such word
3. &nbsp;be too much + n.
&nbsp; &nbsp;be much too+ adj.
&nbsp; &nbsp;be too much for sb. 对…太过分了
4. &nbsp;can’t be too +adj.= can’t be +adj.+ enough “无论…都不为过”
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;You can never be careful enough.= You can never be too careful.你越小心越好。
