OG D39题 感觉好奇怪啊

zcdzheng

39. According to scholars, the earliest writing was
probably not a direct rendering of speech, but was
more likely to begin as a separate and distinct
symbolic system of communication, and only later
merged with spoken language.
(A) was more likely to begin as
(B) more than likely began as
(C) more than likely beginning from
(D) it was more than likely begun from
(E) it was more likely that it began

我不是很明白more than likely这个结构是怎么一回事啊 感觉好奇怪啊

more than likely

额。。。什么意思？

enkyklios

呵呵，more than likely, 我见过
所以我不觉得奇怪，但是我有别的疑惑。所以帮你顶一下

我也顶...也是不太明白...OG说因为more用于形容词和副词的比较级，所以后面一定要跟着than...但还是模模糊糊的

但是这个than的位置太奇怪了

我的理解：
1）看be likely to的结构
2）more than+形容词表示非常，起到修饰形容词的作用
具体可以查一下more than的用法

--Consumers will more than likely not see any changes in labeling of these animal products.
--It is more than likely that not all services that participate in a business process are transactional.
more than likely 表示很有可能
句子结构是 ...was...,but began...,and merged
more than必须同时出现
排除ACDE

请问More than还可以修饰其他副词吗？对它的用法没不怎么掌握，求指教。。。。
