求教英语六级语法
“The rise of the unattractive over successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than was that of attractive overnight successes.”这句话中,than后面为什么把谓语was倒装了?
不好意思,我打错一个词.原句应该是：
The rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than was that of attractive overnight successes.
我查了一下,than 前后主语一致时确实可以省略,此句中than前后主语是不一致的.
than后面的主语应该是 that of attractive overnight successes
that指代的是the rise.
现在已经查到,这是一个临时倒装句.

答案

没倒装
than （that/which）was that of attractive overnight successes.
