Using Double Comparatives

Двойные степени сравнения

(a) The harder you study, the more you will learn. (b) The older he got, the quieter he became. (c) The more she studied, the more she learned. (d) The warmer the weather (is), the better I like it. A double comparative has two parts; both parts begin with the, as in the examples. The second part is the result of the first part. In (a), for example, the result will be that you will learn more.
(e) A: Should we ask Jenny and Jim to the party too? B: Why not? The more, the merrier. (f) A: When should we leave? B: The sooner, the better.   The more, the merrier and t he sooner, the better are common expressions. (e) means that it is good to have more people at the party. (f) means that it is good if we leave as soon as possible.
