问题 Isaac Newton, a British scientist, who lived over 300 years ago, said that he saw______than others because he stood on the shoulders of giants.

选项 A、further
B、more ahead
C、farther
D、more afar

答案A

解析 further"(看得)远"。further与farther都是far的比较级,其区别是:further可以用于指抽象的引申意义,如:further investigate"进一步调查";而farther只能用于表示"距离远"、"时间远"。不说more ahead而说further ahead,more afar是错误表达。全句意为:"生活在300多年前的英国科学家牛顿说,他看得比别人远,是因为他站在巨人的肩膀上。"
