　　此句than后面的比较对象是什么?（新三第60课)

　　Althoughbeingearlymaymeanwastingalittletime,thiswillbelessthanifyoumissthetrainandhavetowaitanhourormoreforthenextone;andyouavoidthefrustrationofarrivingattheverymomentwhenthetrainisdrawingoutofthestationandbeingunabletogetonit.(汗,找不到than后面的比较对象)

　　祖国的小花朵就这么过早的枯萎在你们手中，if引导的是状语从句呀，如何作比较对象，跟谁做比较？
