正确例子，
New techniques in thermal-scanning photography, a process that recordsradiation from surface areas, have made it possible to study in greaterdetail than ever before the effects of calefaction, or warming, of a river.

With a total population of less than two hundred and fewerbreeding females than ever before, the American crocodile seemed a decade agoto be in danger of disappearing

显然than ever before是可以接受的.

但是从下边的例子可以看出than now, than five years ago是不行的，那位NN可以解释一下？

正确的

感觉还是比较对象的问题

若是主语/谓语（或是修饰谓语的成分），可省

若是宾语/表语，则需补出


个人 看法，大家批

斑竹大人~~可是上面给出的正确句子than ever before,明显是过去时跟前面的时态也不一致啊，如果那样，也要补出主语动词的。我觉得是不是比较的对象的问题。下面比较经济健康和知识多少的比较成分是宾语或者宾语补足。而than ever before 的例子比较的是介词of ,in后面的内容。不知真正的语法规则是什么，还望
