2 there is sth worse than是什么用法

There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.

这里there is sth worse than是什么用法?而且being talked about的逻辑主语是否被省略了?

worse than...可以看成一个形容词短语作sth的后置修饰语,在形容词短语中,中心词worse, than being talked about分句修饰worse. 这里being talked about的逻辑主语是一般人,是可以省略的,不需要用动名词复合结构。本句可以改成There is only one thing in the world (that is )worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.

worse than being talked about 为形容词短语,作后置定语修饰one thing in the world. 形容词短语作后置定语相当于一个定语从句,that is worse than being talked about. 在这个定语从句中,worse为比较项,其对应项在比较分句作表语必须省略,being talked about为动名词短语,为比较分句的主语。系词is被省略了。句子意思为:这个世界上只有一件事比被人谈论更糟,这件事就是不被人谈论。(被人谈论意味着还有人惦记着你) 这个世界上唯一比被人谈论更糟的事就是不被人谈论。
