114. The more students who enroll in a course but don't come to campus, the more the school saves on keeping the lights on in the classrooms, paying doorkeepers, and maintaining parking lots.
譯文
注冊了課程但不來校園上課的學(xué)生越多,學(xué)校在教室照明、支付門衛(wèi)費用以及管理停車場等方面的開銷就越少。
點睛
本句的主要結(jié)構(gòu)是“the more..., the more...”句式。句中的who enroll in a course but don't come to campus是定語從句,修飾students。
enroll的意思是“注冊,登記”。save on的意思是“節(jié)約,節(jié)省”,后接名詞或動名詞短語。如:
If every student remembers to turn off the lights before leaving the classrooms, the school will save on electricity. 如果每一個學(xué)生在離開教室之前都記得關(guān)燈的話,學(xué)校就會省很多電。
maintain的意思是“保持,維持”,在本句中特指“財務(wù)上的支持”。parking lot的意思是“停車場”。
考點歸納
“The+比較級...,the+比較級...”句型。
該句型表示“越……,就越……”。前半句相當(dāng)于一個條件句,要用一般現(xiàn)在時代替將來時。如:
The less the cost is, the lower the price is. 成本越低,價格就越低。
The harder you work, the better you will get. 你越努力,成績就越好。
