本句结构非常简单，但是原译文却做跳高活动，非常烦人来展示自己的翻译才华。 The city has its cunning wiles, no less than the infinitely smaller and more human temper. no less than → 决不比…更少。→不亚于…（相当于副词，翻译理解时先把它忽略）→ ，(no less than) the infinitely smaller and more human temper=语言效果上=The city is smaller and temper (该城市是较小的而且是（更具有人性的）脾气。 参考译文: 这个城市有其狡诈的诡计，丝毫不逊于那些无限渺小却更具人性色彩的脾性。 修改译文: 这个城市有其狡诈的诡计，虽然它非常非常的小，但它的人性色彩的脾性却非常庞大。

是的这是Quantifying Phrases（no less than, as much as, no fewer than, at least,...），后面应该是名词、名词组或数词的 取一个例子：There were no less than 10 people in the classroom
