古詩詞大全網 - 成語解釋 - A mouse breathes ____ times more than an elephant every minute. A. 105 B. 120 C. 112 D. 15

A mouse breathes ____ times more than an elephant every minute. A. 105 B. 120 C. 112 D. 15

最後第二段:

An elephant breathes only eight times.

大象每分鐘呼吸八次。

It was told that a mouse(老鼠)breathes a hundred and twenty times each minute.

據說老鼠每分鐘呼吸壹百二十次。

閱讀理解題:

A mouse breathes __112__ times more than an elephant every minute.

老鼠每分鐘比大象多呼吸__112__次。(120-8=112)

A. 105 B. 120 C. 112 D. 15

答案是錯的!

times 表示的是次數,如果表示的是“倍”,那麽句子就缺少成分了,真正比較的“次數”在哪裏呢?

The times a mouse breathes are __15__ times more than an elephant does every minute.

每分鐘老鼠呼吸次數是大象呼吸次數的__15__倍。

※~times more than 是“幾倍”還是“多幾倍”在學術上有爭議,不建議使用,呵呵。
