高二英语单选题,求讲解
The result is not very important to us,but if we do win ,then so much the better.为什么要用the better而不是better

答案

so much the matter 是固定表达,译为“那就更好了”.so much better用于比较级,此时better 是 good或well的比较级,so much 作为程度副词修饰比较级,译为“…比…好多了”,通常还有另一个与之比较的事物,如 Lily did so much better than Tom in the exam 如果还有其他疑问,可以去“状元365”提问.
