形容词与副词的比较级、最高级用法讲练(二)

17

 可修饰比较级的词
1)a bit,a little,rather,much,far,by far,many,a lot,lots,a great deal,any,still,even等

2)还可以用表示倍数的词或度量名词作修饰语。

3)以上词(除by far)外,必须置于比较级形容词或副词的前面。

many,old 和far

1)如果后接名词时,much more +不可数名词

many more +可数名词复数

2)old 有两种比较级和最高级形式:older/oldest 和elder/eldest. elder,eldest 只用于兄弟姐妹的长幼关系。

My elder brother is an engineer.

Mary is the eldest of the three sisters.

3)far 有两种比较级,farther,further. 在英语中两者都可指距离。

在美语中,father 表示距离,further表示进一步。

I have nothing further to say.

the + 最高级 + 比较范围

1)The Sahara is the biggest desert in the world.

形容词最高级前通常必须用定冠词 the,副词最高级前可不用。

形容词most前面没有the,不表示最高级的含义,只表示“非常”。

It is a most important problem.

=It is a very important problem.

注意:使用最高级要注意将主语包括在比较范围内。

(错)Tom is the tallest of his three brothers.

(对)Tom is the tallest of the three brothers.

2)下列词可修饰最高级,by far,far,much,mostly,almost

This hat is nearly / almost the biggest.

注意:

a. very可修饰最高级,但位置与much不同。

This is the very best.

This is much the best.

b. 序数词通常只修饰最高级。

Africa is the second largest continent.

3)句型转换:

Mike is the most intelligent in his class.

Mike is more intelligent than any other students in his class.

4)“否定词语+比较级”,“否定词语+ so… as”结构表示最高级含义。

Nothing is so easy as this.

=Nothing is easier than this.

=This is the easiest thing.
