形容词和副词的用法
一、形容词
1、形容词可分为两大类:描绘形容词和限定形容词。
描绘形容词是描写人或物的颜色、尺寸、形状、性质、状态等的形容词。
限定形容词用于限定被修饰词的数量、距离、所有关系等。
除了these和those外,形容词的单数与复数形式相同。
2、形容词的位置
修饰语一般应置于被修饰语之前,但当几个形容词修饰同一名词时,其排列顺序一般如下:
Example: that strong young Chinese swimmer
注意:形容词前有as, so, no, too, how等词时,不定冠词应置于形容词之后。
She is too kind a girl to refuse.
在下列情况下,修饰语应置于被修饰的名词后:
(1)名词之后的数量词+名词+old, long, wide等。
a boy six years old, a street two kilometers long
(2)为了加强语气或音调美,将描绘形容词置于名词之后。
He had a face thin and worn, but eager and resolute.
(3)something, anything,everyone, anybody…+形容词。
There′s nothing wrong with the electric cooker.
(4)作定语用的分词或形容词短语
The judge has talked to all the people involved.
3、“数词+名词”构成的形容词
(1)数词+名词,如 a two-week tour, a ten-page report等。
(2)数词+名词+形容词,如 a seven-year-old boy等。
(3)名词(无冠词)+基数词=the+序数词+名词,如
Unite 6=the Sixth Unite
(4)“数量词+复数名词”作主语,虽然是复数形式,但仍然用单数动词,作为一个单位来表示。
如果强调个别数,则须用复数动词。
Ten years is quite a long time to him.
Two months have passed since I last heard from my parents.
二、副词
1、副词的构成如下:
(1)本身就是副词,如very, now, there, quite等.
(2)有形容词后缀如-ly, 如happily, carefully等。
(3)有些副词与形容词同行,如early, high, long, fast, hard等。
注意:有些-ly结尾的词不是副词而是形容词,如manly, friendly, queenly等。
2、副词的位置
(1)修饰形容词和副词时,须放在被修饰词之前,如
The scenery around here is very beautiful.
(2)always, never, often, sometimes, ususlly等表示频率的副词在一般动词前,be 动词后,有助动词时,在助动词和动词之间。
He usually gets up early, but he got up late today.
I have never met him and I hope I will never meet him.
(3)有两个以上不同种类的副词作修饰语时,其顺序为地点(小地点+大地点)→状态→次数→时间(单位小的时间+单位大的时间)。
They arrived in Paris safely the other day.
(4)seldom, rarely, never等具有否定意义的频率副词置于句首时,助动词或be动词
须放在主语的前面(也叫倒装句),如
Never did I hear such a funny story=I never heard such a funny story.
3、几个特殊副词的用法
(1)enough须置于所修饰的形容词和副词之后;too须置于所修饰的形容词和副词之前.
She speaks English well enough to be an interpreter.
It,s too hot a day to work.
但enough修饰名词时须置于名词之前.
Have you got enough money for this microwave oven
(2)too…(for…)+不定式(to),作“太…而不能”解;enough+不定式,意思是“足够可以”,这一结构可转换成so…that结构。
The boy was still too young to go to school.
→He was so young that he could not go to school.
The man is rich enough to buy a Roll-Royce.
→He is so rich that he can buy a Roll-Royce.
(3)already用于肯定句,作“已经”解;yet用于否定句,作“还”解,用于疑问句作“已经”解,still作“仍然”解。
I have already seen film.
Have you seen the film yet
I still prefer tea to coffee.
(4)随着only和also在句中位置的改变,句意和语气也会改变。
Only Mr Li came to see me today.
Mr Li came to see only me today.
Mr Li came to see me only today. ?
三、形容词的比较等级

四、形容词比较等级部分不规则变化表
五、形容词、副词比较等级的基本用法
形容词与副词都有三个比较等级。
1)原级常用于“as+原级+as”结构
He likes her as much as he likes his sister.
否定的原级用not as…as或not so …as,二者一般无甚区别。
He does not smoke so heavily as his brother.
2)比较级常用于“比较级+than” 结构.
He is taller than me.
否定比较与否定原级一样,也用not as(so)…as…结构,也可用less…than结构. This word is less frequent in British English than in American English. 3)两个人或物比较时,定冠词the+比较级表示最高级。
He is the taller of the two.
4)最高级常用于“the+最高级+比较范围”结构,比较范围为短语或从句。
He is the best picture in the hall.
5)含有否定词的比较级,如
(1)no less than=as much(or many)as “不亚于”
not less than=at least “至少”
(2)no less… than =as…as “和……一样”
not less+原级+than “至少不亚于”
(3)no more…than=not…any more than “和……一样不……”
not more…than=not so…as “不像……那样……”
(4)no more than=only “只不过”,言其少
not more than=at most “不多于”,“至少”
6)表示“几倍于”用twice(两倍),three times(三倍)+as…as, This book costs twice as much as the other one.
7)the+比较级……,the+比较级, 意思是“越……就越”,如:
The harder you work , the more you will learn.
8)比较结构之前可用程度状语加以修饰,如as…as前可用
almost,nearly,just(about),quite等词语修饰,如,
John is almost as tall as his father.
9)在more than结构之前可用far,(so)very much, (quite)a lot, a great deal, (just)a bit, still, far等词语修饰,如:
He speaks English a lot more rapidly than he does French.
10)比较级+and+比较级,作“越来……越”解,如:
The days are getting longer and longer.。
