that 【指示代词】那，那个
常用在表示比较的句子中，指代上文已经提及的事物以避免重复。
e.g. The weather in Hainan is hotter than that of Beijing.
拓展 that通常代替可数名词单数或不可数名词，代替可数名词复数用those。
e.g. The machines made in this factory are cheaper than those made in that factory.
2. New York is more famous than any other city in the US.
比较级+than any other+可数名词单数+in ...
在(某范围内)……比其他任何一个……都……。
此结构形式上是比较级，实际上表达最高级的意义，故可与最高级进行同义句转换。
e.g. Tony is taller than any other boy in his class.==Tony is the tallest boy in his class.
