less than修饰不可数名词或形容词,副词

所以这里选c
这课文没有上下句,所以不能判断对错,有时一些看似与语法矛盾的用法可以用作修辞手法,以表达需要的效果,所以以语法为准。课文中的是特殊用法!
一般来讲,less than修饰不可数名词,fewer than修饰可数名词,均表示“少于”。但是,如果复数可数名词不强调其一一可数,而是表示一个整体单位,一段时间或一段距离,指的是度量,则要用less than,因为度量是一个不可数的抽象概念。例如:
She earns less than ten dollars a day.
They bought less than three tons of steel.
He had less then fifty miles to go.
如果名词的可数性较为明显,用fewer或less均可。e.g.
Fewer/Less than fifty students came to the party.

less fewer区别
