题满简单，就是想问问well below和much below的区别。多谢了！
虽然无法给出一个令人满意的答复，但是我希望下面的例子能有所帮助。
OG补充38题，在much less和far less之间，ETS给出了偏好：Moreover, far is a better modifier of less expert than much is in A and C。虽然在OG250中我们也看到了much less这种用法（未划线部分），但是，我个人认为，ETS还是倾向于在表示‘增加的’意思时用much来修饰，比如：much more difficult ...；而在表示‘减少的’或负特征的词时避免用much来修饰。
