一般來說，形容詞比較級做表語時前面不加任何冠詞，但在下列情況下應加冠詞：

形容詞比較級修飾可數名詞做定語時，通常前面加不定冠詞。如：This coat is a bit　　 longer. Could you show me a shorter one?

當形容詞比較級表示兩者之間較為突出者時，前面常加定冠詞．如：This is the better of the two books. Canada is the larger of the two countries.

the more... ,the more... 句式，表示“愈……就愈……”．如：The more carefully you study, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.
