nothing about the matter. 对这件事我几乎一无所知。Next to dancing, I like playing the guitar. 除了跳舞，我最喜欢弹吉它。New York is the largest city next to London. 纽约是仅次于伦敦的城市。

no more...than等于not...any more than,意为“同...一样不”，意味着两者都否定。no more后可接名词，形容词，副词或动词；than是从属连词，常引出省略的比较状语从句。两个分句的重点往往在前一个分句，翻译时要把分句的次序颠倒，才能表达出重点来。例如：A fool can no more see his own folly than he can see his ears. 愚人之不能自知其蠢，如同其不能自见其耳。I am no more fond of playing the guitar than he is. 我和他都不喜欢弹吉他。
no more than连用，等于not any more than, 其后多接数词，表示“只不过是，仅仅”的意思，相当于only。例如：There are no more than ten tickets left. 仅剩下十张票。
not more... than等于less...than或not so...as，表示“不及，不如；不比...更”的意思，意味着两者都肯定，但着重点往往在从句，翻译时按原来顺序译出即可。例如：It goes without saying that this subject is not more important than that one. 毋庸质疑，这个问题不比那个问题更重要。
not more than连用，其后也一般接数词，表示“不超过……，至多（=at most）"的意思。例如：I read not more than twenty pages every day. 我
