一種是: twice / ___ times + as + 形容詞 + as…
但是三倍以上也可用: ____ times + 比較級形容詞 + than…
比如: This house is twice as big as that one.
This diamond is three times as big as that one.
= This diamond is three times bigger than that one.
This question is ten times as hard as that one.
= This question is ten times harder than that one.
第二種是: twice / ____ times + the + 名詞 (+ of…)
比如: This road is twice the length of that road.
They bought the house at three times the normal price.
第三種是: twice / ____ times + as + much / many + 名詞 + as…
比如: He has twice as much money as me.
