英语的数词可分为基数词和序数词两大类，基数词表达的是个数，序数词表达的是顺序，那么在比较中一般既会用到数词，又会用到数词，所以了解一下很有必要，接下来小编就为大家详细介绍一下GMAT语法数词的比较，希望对大家备考GMAT语法考试有帮助。
如果想表达一个数字比另一个大多少，有很多种表达方式，如果表示倍数的话可以使用times 和as...
The man is THREE TIMES AS OLD AS his grandson.
我们可以说3 Times As Old As, 但不能写 3 Times Older Than. 同样可以写3 Years Older Than, 但是不能写3 Years As Old As.当然使用times 的时候不一定要用as 或than ：
Right: The cost of a ticket is $12, SIX TIMES the cost ten years ago.
Right: The concert was attended by 300 people, TWICE the previous attendance.
而如果想表示两个数字的加或减则要用more than 或less than ：
Right: I am TEN years OLDER THAN you.
Wrong: I am TEN years AS OLD AS you.
More 和less 可以当作名词代词，也可以用作形容词副词等：
Right: I own MORE THAN I should. (more = noun or pronoun)
Right: I own MORE SHIRTS THAN I should. (more = adjective)
Right: I sleep MORE THAN I should. (more = adverb)
而其他表示数比较的词如high 和low 只能做形容词：
Right: My bills are LOWER than they were last year.
Wrong: I spend LOWER than I did last year.
Right: I spend LESS than I did last year.
以上就是小编给大家整理的GMAT语法数词比较的介绍，考生可以根据自己的实际情况做适当参考，从中借鉴一些好的经验，并积极调整备考策略，从而在GMAT考试中发挥出更好的水平。更多关于GMAT语法的比较题的方法小编会不断为大家介绍，祝大家早日梦圆名校。
