选项
答案将lesser改为less。
解析 less是little的比较级形式，此处作副词使用，less than意为“比……少，小”，例如：Every man feels instinctively that all the beautiful sentiments in the world weigh less than a aingle lovely action．人们生来就认为人世间所有美好的情感都不如一个高尚的行动显得更有力量。lesser是形容词，只能作定语，意为“较少的，较小的，次要的”，如：They are discriminated against to a greater or lesser extent in various countries．他们在各个国家都或多或少地受到歧视。
