急求世界第一流的英語(yǔ)高手幫我解答下這幾句英語(yǔ)

解答問(wèn)題一： less的確有比較級的意思，但是less本身還是adv，也就是其可以修飾一個(gè)adj。這里的less就是修飾pretentious,作用就是減弱的pretentious所表示的含義：pretentious adj 自以為是的，那么有less 的減弱，即less pretentious 就是‘不那么自以為是’----其實(shí)，從此處也可以看出英語(yǔ)的一詞多義的現象，以及中國學(xué)生學(xué)英語(yǔ)為何有困難的原因；

解答問(wèn)題二： 至于he found a great deal to interest him，你還是沒(méi)有弄懂這句話(huà)所想表達的含義。在弄懂含義之前，先要弄懂一個(gè)句型：find sb/sth doing sth----就是這個(gè)句型干擾你了，如果此處是interesting，想必你也就明白了。但是有沒(méi)有注意到：find sb/sth doing sth ，doing 是sb/sth 發(fā)出的，對于interest 來(lái)說(shuō)，完全可以這樣去用，但是interesting adj，此形式就有點(diǎn)與V（動(dòng)詞）形式有點(diǎn)不像，給人以視覺(jué)上的混淆---試想，to interest 與interesting，哪個(gè)更像是動(dòng)詞？哪個(gè)又更容易的讓你去區分interesting 所表示的是adj ，還是V？更何況，interesting 作為adj 的次數要遠遠多余其doing 的形式。所以，可以說(shuō)就是為了避嫌，才選用不定式的形式，因為不定式可以作定語(yǔ)的。
