1. Flying demands a much greater supply of energy than ______ most other forms of transportation.

可以通过下三部去理

1)句子还原:

Flying demands a much great supply of energy than other forms of transportation demand it.

2) 由于主句和从句中都有重复的词语 demand it,从句中的就可以用助动词 do 取代以避免读起来声音重复的凝重,成为:than other forms of transportation do.

3)为了强调,可以把 do 提前成为 than do other forms of transportation

注意:助动词 do 常用来取代与上文重复的谓语部分,如:

He likes to play games and so do I. (do 代替 likes to play games)

Do you go shopping on weekends? Yes, I do. (do 代替 go shopping on weekends)

2.It is no possibility that Bob can win the first prize in the match.

1)要使其成为同位语从句,这个句子需要改为:

There will be no possibility that Bob can win the first prize in the match.

主句所以用将来时态是由于从句中的 can win 指的是将来的可能性,语法要求名词从句需要与主句保持时态一致.

2)这是一个主语从句,通过把句子还原可以看清:

That Bob can win the first prize in the match is no possibility

很明显这是一个用形式主句表示的主语从句.由于主部分很长,而表语部分却只有两个词,句子显得头重脚轻,所以把主语拖后改用形式主语表示.
