The refuse left by tourists is more than can be disposed of. (正)

The refuse left by tourists is more than disposed of. (误)

错误的原因是:than 指代 refuse。它是 dispose of 的受事者,充当主语时要用完整的被动结构,不能省略 can be

如果改为下面的句子,则都是对的:

The refuse left by tourists is more than was expected. (正)

The refuse left by tourists is more than expected. (正)

原因是 than 指代整个主句。主动语态时,expect 的宾语是从句,不是refuse。为了简练可以省略助动词 was
