【分析】
一、 no longer与no more的意义区别
1. no longer着重表示时间或距离的“不再”延长,意为“如今不再”。等于 any longer。
2. no more着重表示数量或程度的减少,“不再”增加,意为“再也没有更多(大)的数量(程度)”。等于 any more。
用作副词表示时间上的“不再”,可用no longer, not…any longer, not…any more。
二、时态区别
1. no longer / any longer表示不再继续或再现过去某一时刻发生或存在而一直延续的动作/ 状态时,常用于过去时、现在时或将来时的句子中。如:
He was no longer a thief. 他不再是小偷了。
When there is no gravity, our feet no longer stay on the ground.
如果没有重力,我们的脚就不能再站稳在地面上。
2. no more / any more表示再也不重复过去反复发生的动作时,常用于过去时或将来时的句子中。如:
Now she wasn't afraid any more. 现在她再也不害怕了。
三、位置区别
当修饰动词时,no longer 通常位于句中的实意动词之前,动词be、助动词和情态动词之后,有时也可位于句末或句首(用于句首时,其后用倒装语序),可用于延续性动词和非延续性动词,此时也可用 not ... any more 或 not ... any longer。
no more (more 为形容词时,后接名词;more 为名词时,不接名词) 。no more 通常用于句末,且一般与非延续性动词连用。no more 也可表示时间上的“不再”(但要与非延续性动 词连用,且位于句末),但在现代英语中,no more 一般不这样用。
any longer与 any more常置于句末。如:
She could no longer find a way to get into the valley. 她再也不到进山谷的路了。
Time or opportunity lost will return no more. 机不可失,时不再来。
四、修饰动词区别
1. no longer / any longer 习惯用来修饰表示状态的持续动词(如wait, live, work等)。
Don't wait any longer. 别再等了。
She could not keep up with him any longer.她不能再赶上他了。
2. no more / any more通常用来修饰表示具体动作的瞬间动词(如go, stand, visit等)。如:
We couldn't stand it any more. 我们不能再忍受了。
五、作用区别
两者都可用来修饰动词,在句中作状语。当no more作“不再(有、存在)”解时,还可作定语和宾语。如:
Later when they are far away from the earth and there is no more gravity, they find they are unable to stay in one place. 过后,当他们远离地球,到了不再有地球引力的地方时,他们发现自己不可能停留在一个地方不动。(作定语)
I have no more to say. 我再没有什么要说的了。(作宾语)
例句:
A. The picnic basket was no longer under the tree. 装有野餐的篮子不再在树下了。

正:I will go there no more. 我再也不去那里了。
正:I will no longer go there.  正:I won't go there any longer/any more.
注:在正式的文体中,no longer 也可位于句首(句子用倒装)或句末。如:

=He loves her no longer.
= No longer does he love her.
