1. %或者fraction 用less 而不用lower和fewer
2. 时间，距离，金钱用less 比如 less than 3 weeks (尽管week可数但是也用less 不用fewer）less than 5 dollars
3.可数名词用fewer, 不可数用less。
4. 数量概念用less, 长度概念用low
5.less 可以修饰可数也可以修饰不可数所以才名词概念
6 less 可以做副词在这个基础上比形容词多了很多功能，比如介词后面可以加副词但不能用形容词如，sth. amount(s) to less than。。。。。所以在很多不确定的情况下选less确实正确率比较大

less than才對 did配合rose

vs,
Employment cost ROSE lower (adj.) than what WERE... ==>wrong
correct only if employment cost WERE lower (adj.) than...

lower were都不对

0人: castlelight 2018-11-12 23:33:23

lower只做形容词不做副词，they were

0人: OliviaLin 2018-10-08 17:21:31

lower不能修饰rose, rose平行用did或rose

0人: mrheadache 2018-02-07 14:22:49

less修饰的是rose这个动作，不是修饰cost，所以不用lower
