答案+思路，3Q

Answer 1

She is _____a musician than her brother.
A.much of B.more of C.much as D.more as

答案：B
分析：句意“她比她的兄弟更具有音乐家气质。”
首先，句中有“than”，明显是比较级，那么前面就应该用more(much的比较级形式)，排除A，C；

其次，of +n.=该名词的形容词形式，通常用来作表语。如：
It is of use.=It is useful.
It is of great help to me.=It is greatly heapful to me.
be...of +n.(表身份的名词)，通常表示“具有…样的性质；像…”。
短语much of a + n.(表身份的名词)：“颇具...气质的；高明的…；出色的…”。
“more of a +n.(表身份的名词)”是其比较级。因此排除C，D；

附：
more of 表示“更大程度上；更多地是… ”，后面通常跟than…，构成比较， “than…”也可以省略。例如：
①What he told us was more of an illusion than a reality.
他所告诉我们的(情况)比起事实，更大程度上像一个假象（更具有假象的性质）。
②What he told us was more of an illusion.
他说告诉我们的(情况) 更大程度上像一个假象（更具有假象的性质）。
另外，more of也可以表示一个群体里的更多的一部分，如：
More of my students want to do their homeworks by themselves.
我的学生中更多的一部分想自己做自己的家庭作业。

much as 非常像，和...几乎一样；尽管，虽然。
①Much as she likes him, she would never consider marrying him.
尽管她喜欢他, 但她并不打算嫁给他。
②Much as I should like to go，I can\'t go right now.
虽然我很想去，但我现在还不能去。
③Much as I admire David as a poet, I do not like him as a man.
正如我非常钦佩作为诗人的大卫一样，我很不喜欢他的为人。
(Much as和...几乎一样，在此强调程度一样多。后面的as是“作为”的意思)

more and more of ad. 越来越…
There is no denying that piracy is becoming more and more of a problem in China．
毫无疑问的是，盗版行为在中国正在成为一个越来越严重的问题。
