A．other than B．more than C．rather than D．less than 解析：考查短语辨析。句意：建造这些节能建筑不仅仅需要建筑材料，也需要“脑子”。other than表示“除了”；more than表示“不只是”；rather than表示“宁可”；less than则表示“少于”。根据语意，这里选B项。 答案： B They were not leaving for Montreal until later, so they went on a tour of the city. 她们要晚些时候才动身去蒙特利尔，因此就在多伦多市内游览了一番。 本句包含“not ... until ...”句式，该句中until为介词，其后一般接表示时间的名词或名词性词组。此外，until还可作连词，用于引导时间状语从句。现将until的用法归纳如下： (1) 引导时间状语从句时，如果主句的谓语动词是延续性 动词，那么这个主句需用肯定式，表示动作一直持续 到until所表示的时间为止。 (2) 引导时间状语从句时，如果主句的谓语动词是非延续 性动词，如go, come, leave, finish等，那么这个主句常 用否定式，表示某一动作到until所表示的时间才发 生，构成not ...until ...“直到……才……”。 (3) 从句表示的动作如果还没发生，其谓语动词常用一般现 在时；若强调从句中的动词先于主句的谓语动词发生， 则从句中的谓语动词使用完成时。 (4) 在not ...until ...句型结构中，可以把not until提到句首， 句子用倒装语序。 (5) not ... until ...句型的强调句式为it is/was not until... that...。 (6) 以上结构中的until可用作介词或连词。 But Henry Ford did not start to build his first car until 1896.(选自2011年高考辽宁卷·阅读C) 但是亨利·福特直到1896年才开始建造他的第一辆车。 You may stay here until the rain stops. 你可以呆在这里，一直到雨停为止。 She didnt go away until I came back， ＝ It wasnt until I came back that she went away. ＝ Not until I came back did she go away. 直到我回来她才离开。 has s
