    2017考研英语长难句分析每日一句（35）
    Certainly people do not seem less interested insuccess and its signs now
than formerly. Summerhomes, European travel, BMWs-the locations, placenames and
name brands may change, but such itemsdo not seem less in demand today than a
decade ortwo years ago.
    译文：当然，当今人们对于成功及其各种标志的兴趣似乎并未减弱。避暑别墅、欧洲旅行、宝马车——地点、地名以及品牌或许会有变化，但这类事物如今被人渴求的程度似乎不贬于一二十年前。
    点睛：这两句话分别出现了比较级结构和双重否定，do not seem less interested in success and itssigns
now than formerly和do not seem less in demand today than a decade or two years
ago.adecade or two years“一二十年”还可以说成one or two
decades，需要注意的是：前一个表达使用不定冠词a是出于习惯，不可说成one decade or two。a decade or two比较口语化，而one
or two decades却比较书面化。类似的短语还有in one or two words“三言两语”。
