名人教英文:i could not care less何解?

有些英文语句的表达方式比较迂回,或令学习英文的人感到疑惑,以下有几个例子:

no more than
no more than 有时指“不多于(某数量)”,和not more than差不多,例如:there is a hotel no more than/ not more than five minutes' walk away.

另外,no more than可解作“只不过是”,近义语为nothing more than和little more than,不能用not more than代替。例如:in britain, the monarch (君主) is no more than a figurehead (象征式领袖). the real executive power lies in the hands of the prime minister.
no less than

no less than有时指“不少于”,例如:whole milk contains no less than/ not less than 3.25% milk fat.

no less than也可解作“多达”(as much as/as many as),强调数目多于预期,虽然less一般用于不可数名词,但在这个情况可用于可数名词,例如:no less than half the students failed the examination.
