那个贪睡的家伙似乎有很多话要说.

三、重点句型

1.And if poverty is less of a problem and people are better educated, there is a good chance that we will see less violence and fewer wars. 如果贫穷的问题有所改善, 如果人民能受到更好的教育, 我们身边的暴力和战争就会减少.

there is a chance that...是一固定句式, 意为 "有可能会......", 此时chance是可数名词, 作 "可能;可能性"解.

  如:

There is a good chance that our team will win the game.

与此句式意义相同的还有:Chances are that....

  如:

Chances are that he has already arrived.

  less violence and fewer wars更少的暴力和更少的战争, 其中的less修饰不可数名词, fewer修饰复数名词.

  如:

I'd like to do the work with less money and fewer people.

2.Without international cooperation, developing countries cannot proper, nor will sustainable development be possible. 没有国际合作, 发展中国家就不能繁荣起来, 可持续发展也就会成为不可能.

nor引出一个分句, 分句的谓语动词要用部分倒装, 该分句常放在一个否定句后, 意为 "也不; 也没有".

  如:

I don't know about it, nor do I care.

注 在现代英语中,nor引出的分句也可放在一个肯定句后。

3.He looked more asleep than dead. 他看上去像是睡着了, 而不像是死了.

more...than...此处作连词使用, 可以连接两个形容词, 意为 "是......, 而不是......; 与其说是......, 不如说是......", 用以比较两种说法的正确程度, 表示前一种说法比后一种说法更正确一些.
