试题分析：考查倍数表达法。倍数表达有四种：1. “A+倍数+形容词或副词的比较级+than+B”， 2.“A+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B”， 3. “A+倍数+the size/height/length/width， etc+of+B”， 4. “……times+what+从句”。所有四种方法中都把倍数放在了最前面，本题中的half就是倍数。考查了2种倍数的表达形式。经验：信不信由你，我们加还没有上个月他们买的新房子的一半大。故A正确。 点评：倍数表达要牢记，倍数表达法是高中英语教学的重点，也是历届高考的热点。当我们要表达甲是乙的几倍时，通常用句型来表示： 1. “A+倍数+形容词或副词比较级+than+B”，表示“A比B大（长、高、宽等）多少倍” This rope is twice longer than that one. 这根绳子是那根绳子的两倍长（比那根绳子长一倍）。 2.“A+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B”，表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。如： Asia is four times as large as Europe. 亚洲的面积是欧洲的四倍。 3. “A+倍数+the size/height/length/width， etc+of+B”，表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。如： This street is four times the length of that one. 这条街是那条街的四倍长。 4. “……times+what+从句”。如： The production is now three times what it was ten years ago. 现在的产量比十年前增加了两倍。
