句型 the more……the more……表示双方的程度同样增加或同样减少,或一方增加的程度相当于另一方减少的程度,类同于汉语的“越(愈)……越(愈)……”。前一个the 是关系副词(Relative Adverb),意思是in whatever degree,to what extent 或 byhow much(到什么程度),引导一个比较从句(有的语法家称之为程度状语从句)。另一个the 是指示副词(Demonstrative Adverb)(有的语法家称之为程度副词),意思是 inthat degree,to that extent 或 by so much The more ...... The more ...... that both the same degree of increase or decrease the same, or a degree of increase equivalent to the other side of the degree of reduction, similar to the Chinese “more ... ... (more) ... (more) ... ... ”. The first is the relative adverb, which means in whatever degree, to what extent, or by how much, to guide a comparative clause (some grammators call it a degree adverb clause). The other is the Demonstrative Adverb (some grammarians call degree adverbs), meaning inthat degree, to that extent or by so much
