The pile of tried wands was mounting higher and higher on the spindly chair, but the more wands Mr. Ollivander pulled from the shelves, the happier he seemed to become. 

“the+比较级,the+比较级”意为“越……越……”,表示一方的程度随着另一方的变化而变化,其中的两个the都是副词,而不是冠词。本文拟从以下几个方面对此句式作一浅析,希望能帮助同学们加深理解。
  
一、对主、从句的理解
  
1. 在通常情况下,前一个“the +比较级”相当于比较状语从句,后一个“the + 比较级”为主句。例如:

The more I read the book,the more I liked it.这本书我越看越喜欢。
The more difficult the questions are, the less likely he is able to answer them. 问题越难,他回答出来的可能性就越小。

2.有时前一个“the +比较级”相当于条件状语从句,后一个“the + 比较级”为主句,从句不可用将来时。例如:

The earlier you start,the sooner you’ll be back. 你出发得越早,回来得就越早。
The more you practise, the better you can understand. 你练习得越多,理解得就越透。

3.除上述情况外,还存在着主句在前,从句在后的特殊情况。此时,主句中的“the+比较级”多放在主句之末。此时要按汉语习惯先译从句,再译主句。例如:

He is the busier, the happier he feels. 他越忙越高兴。
You climb the higher, the farther you will see. 你爬得越高,就看得越远。
  
二、语序
  
一般说来,从句中的主语与谓语必须是正常语序,不能是倒装语序。主句可根据需要调整,既可采用正常语序,也可采用倒装语序。例如:
The noisier they were, the happier was their mother. 孩子越吵闹,他们的母亲就越高兴。
The harder you work, the more progress you will get. 你越努力,进步就越快。
  
三、省略
  
1. 在通常情况下,如果主、从句中的谓语动词是联系动词be,而且主语非代词时,此时be常常省略。例如:

The better the food (is), the more popular a restaurant gets. 食物越可口,饭店的生意就越红火。
The higher the tree (is), the stronger the wind (is). 树大招风。
The more exercise you take, the stronger you are. 锻炼得越多,身体越强壮。(注意:此句中的联系动词are不能省略。)

2. 对于主句在前,从句在后的特殊情况,主句中形容词或副词前的the常常省略。例如:

You practise (the) more, the better you can understand. 你练习得越多,你理解得就越透。
I knew him (the) more, the more I liked him. 我越了解他就越喜欢他。

3.主、从句的主语和谓语动词在叙述的场合有默契,可酌情省略。例如:

The sooner (you finish it), the better (it will be). 你完成得越快越好。
The more (you know), the more dangerous (it will be). 你知道得越多,处境就越危险。
