比不上

Cast iron cannot compare with steel in strength.

铸铁在强度方面比不上钢。

Ships can't rival planes for speed.

船的速度比不上飞机。

Can not this Milan beautiful compare with that sombrely dry London?

难道个美丽的米兰城比不上那个阴冷干燥的伦敦吗？

Walking can't compare with flying.

走路比不上飞行。

A dialogue from the twenty-fourth chapter of “Dream of the Red Chamber” , which Lin daiyu bemock Shi Xiangyun, is a typically example.

⋯⋯史湘云笑道:“一辈子我然比不上你,我只保佑着明儿得一个咬舌的林姐夫,时时刻刻你可听‘爱’‘厄’去。阿弥陀佛,那才现在我眼里!”
