不管是英语写作仍是对话，许多同学大大的脑袋里，只装了一个小小的more and more。
这个词本身没有任何疑问，native speakers 也在用，可是假定通篇都是more and more，就会露出你的词汇量很匮乏了。
下面的内容，会多教我们几个表达方法，完满替换more and more，请拿下笔记本，做好笔记。
一、
越来越多的...
01、a growing number of sb / sth, an increasing number of sb/ sth
这个词组可以完满替换more and more，标明「越来越多的...」，我们要点回想。咱们来看几个比方：
an increasing number of people are suffering from cancer these years in china.近几年来，我国越来越多的人死于癌症。
in addition, an increasing number of american states are making it easier for people to vote by mail during the coronavirus outbreak.
此外，在冠状病毒迸发时刻，越来越多的美国州让我们更简略经过邮件投票。
再比方「越来越多人选择日子在大城市」这句话，我们的第一反应可所以：
more and more people choose to live in big cities.
学会了新的表达，咱们可以将语句改写为：
an increasing number of people choose to live in big cities.
a growing number of people choose to live in big cities.
需要留心的是，increasing是元音发音最初，前面要用冠词an。
2. an ever-increasing / ever-growing number of sth
ever 是「不断，一向」的意思，这个词组的口气更激烈，标明「不断添加的...，越来越多的...」。比方：
the islanders are trying to protect their environment from the ever-increasing number of australian 
tourists. 岛上的居民正极力维护环境，使其免遭日渐增多的澳大利亚游客的损坏。
3.in growing / increasing numbers
这个词也标明「越来越多」，常置于句尾，作状语。咱们来看两个比方：
nurses are leaving the profession in increasing numbers.
越来越多的护士退出这一作业。
these coffee chains are beginning to appear in china in increasing numbers.
这些咖啡连锁店在我国的数量日积月累。
4.the number of sth / sb is increasing/surging.
「或人或物的数量在添加」，也就是「...越来越多」。
the number of sth / sb is booming. 这句话字面意义是「...的数量在激增」，咱们也可以用来表达「越来越多的...」，boom 一般用于指商业、生意方面的激增，咱们可替换为 increase, surge 等适用规模更广的词汇：the number of sth / sb is increasing / surging.
例如：
曩昔几年，患抑郁症的人越来越多。
咱们可以说：the number of people suffering from depression has surged over the past few years.
如今，越来越多的人喜爱在假期的时分出去旅行：
the number of people choosing to travel during holidays has surged these days.
二、
越来越...
假定不想说「越来越多」，而想表达「越来越高，越来越年青」等等其他意思，咱们可以用下面两种表达方法来替换more and more：
1.increasingly+描述词原
形
副词 increasingly 本身是「越来越多地，不断添加地」的意思，加描述词原形，可以标明「越来越...」。咱们来看一些例句。
while younger chinese are increasingly health-conscious, they seem to brush off regular hotpot-hygiene scandals.
我国的年青人尽管越来越注重安康，但如同对火锅清洁丑闻不认为意。
as the job market becomes increasingly competitive every year, a growing number offresh university graduates are opting for
跟着作业商场的竞赛一年比一年剧烈，越来越多的应届大学结业生选择‘慢作业’。
increasingly 也可以润饰动词，咱们来看个例句：
use of antidepressants is rising fast. young, educated urbanites are increasingly using the internet to seek help privately for their mental-health problems.
抗抑郁药物的运用也在灵敏上涨。此外，越来越多的受过杰出教育的都市年青人私下使用互联网寻求心思安康疑问的处置之道。
increasingly这个小词简略、地道，又好上手，我们要熟练掌控。
2. ever+adj.
ever+描述词比照级标明「越来越...的」，可以替换 more and more。
ever-higher 即「越来越高的，不断增高的」，ever more complicated 指「越来越凌乱的」，ever more vigilant 指「越来越警惕」。
这一用法在外刊中呈现的频率很高，咱们来看一些例句。
although richer countries are generally more contented, rising material prosperity does not necessarily lead to ever-higher levels of self-reported well-being.
尽管殷实国家一般都更为满足， 但物质愈加丰厚并不必定会让自我陈述的夸姣水平更高。
