I cant hear you. 请大声一点儿，我听不见你说话。 Step 8 Grammar 形容词与副词 对于形容词与副词，我们主要掌握两点，一是形容词与副词的句法功能，二是形 容词与副词的比较级和最高级。 1. 形容词的句法功能 一般来说，形容词可以放在名词之前作定语，也可以放在系动词之后作表语， 还可以作宾语补足语等。例如： Did you see tha

19、t old photograph that I found? Its a lovely picture. 你看见我找到的那张老照片了吗？画面真美。(定语) They were very nice. 他们很友善。(表语) Peoples lives seem busy now. 现在人们的生活似乎很忙碌。(表语) We must keep our classroom clean and tidy. 我们必须保持教室干净整洁。(宾语补足语) 形容词作定语一般都是放在名词之前，但是如果修饰的是不定代词 something, anything, nothing, somebody, anybody,

20、nobody 等，就要放在后面。例如： Is there anything special in the paper today? 今天报纸上有什么特别的新闻吗？ I didnt find anything funny about it. 我觉得这事一点儿都不可笑。 There is nothing new in the store. 商店里没有什么新东西。 很多副词都以-ly 结尾，但是“名词+ly”的词则多为形容词，如：weekly, friendly 等，应注意区别。例如： A friendly voice answered the phone. 接电话的是一个友好的声音。 2. 副词的

21、句法功能 副词一般用作状语，修饰动词、形容词、副词以及全句，表示程度、方式等。 例如： They speak highly of you. 他们对你的评价很高。 We were very lucky to find you here. 我们很幸运在这里找到了你。 The spring passed too quickly. 春天过得太快了。 Hopefully, well meet again on Friday. 希望我们星期五再见面。 3. 形容词与副词的比较级和最高级 就形容词、副词的比较级和最高级而言，一是要掌握比较级和最高级的构成， 二是要掌握比较级句型。 1) 比较级的句型 (1)

22、 比较级+than，表示“比更” e.g. Health is more important than wealth. 健康比财富更重要。 He got up earlier than I did this morning. 今天早上他起得比我早。 (2) 比较级+ and+比较级，表示“越来越”。 e.g. The story gets more and more exciting. 故事变得越来越激动人心。 Our lives are getting better and better. 我们的生活越来越好。 (3) The+比较级，the+比较级，表示 “越，越” e.g. The mo

23、re time you spend on it, the greater progress you will make. 你在这上面花的时间越多，你的进步就会越大。 The more he talked, the more excited he grew. 他越说越激动。 同级比较一般采用 as.as句型，否定句可以用 not so / as表示。 e.g. He is as tall as his father. 他和父亲一样高。 I get up not so early as you. 我不如你起得早。 2) 最高级的表达方式 (1) the+ 最高级+ of/in e.g. Jim i

24、s the tallest of the three. 吉姆是三人中最高的。 He is the most diligent student in his class. 他是班上最勤奋的学生。 (2) 选择疑问句 e.g. Who is the tallest, Tom, Jack or Bill? 汤姆、 杰克和比尔， 谁个子最高？ (3) the+最高级+定语从句 e.g. It is the most interesting book I have ever read.21 世纪教育网版权所有 这是我所读过的最有趣的一本书。 3) 比较级和最高级的修饰语 比较级和最高级的修饰语应置于其所

25、修饰的形容词或副词之前。常见的比 较级修饰语有 much, still, a lot, even, far 等。 e.g. He worked much harder then. 那时他工作要努力得多。 常见的最高级修饰语有 almost, by far, far, much 等。 e.g. This is by far the most expensive bag in the shop.21世纪*教育网 这是目前这家商店里最贵的包。 Step 9 Exercises 1.
