另外,google搜索获知,美国新奥尔良的摇滚乐队CowboyMouth2003年出版的Uh-Oh (2003)专辑中,有一首名为So Much The Better的歌曲。
(http://lyrics.wikia.com/Cowboy_Mouth:So_Much_The_Better)
歌词如下:
She's leaving the man that she left me for
She's leaving him 'cause she don't(原文如此) love himanymore

So much the better - Betterforget her
Big blue eyes and a smile that could kill
So much the better - better forget her
But I'll bet he never will

She's always had troublefinding her way
She tries to hold onto memories that die day by day.

So much the better - Betterforget her
When she smiles all time could stand still
So much the better - Better forget her
But I'll bet he never will.

Say what you think you'reneeding to say
Do what you need to do
No matter what anyone has to say
You have to live with you.
With you.

I'm watching it all from adistant place
I know how she feels, but I've worn that look on hisface.

So much the better - Betterforget her
Big blue eyes and a smile that could kill
So much the better - better forget her
But I'll bet -

So much the better - Betterforget her
When she smiles all time could stand still
So much the better - Better forget her
But I'll bet I never will.

I never will.
I never will.

我也专门向英国专家进行了咨询,被告知,这是一个固定的搭配形式,结构不宜分解,使用频率比较高。我主编的《高中英语读本》中也多次出现这一短语。

从以上分析可知,so much thebetter是英语中的一个固定表达形式,大多是与if从句一起出现,可以在口语中使用,也可以在书面语中使用。

结论:这一短语在高考试题中出现,是可以的。不过,由于这一短语对高中学生不十分熟悉,而且此题是对结构语义的考查,不是对语境、语用的考查,所以,作为考点,有一定难度,也不是很合理,算不是一道好题,只能算一道偏题。
