形容词和副词
1.形容词与副词的语法功能。
形容词可用作定语修饰名词或代词,可与系动词连用作表语,还可用作宾语补足语等。副词通常可用作状语修饰形容词、副词或动词。
2.形容词与副词的位置。
(1)形容词作定语,通常位于所修饰词的前面,但当形容词修饰复合不定代词时,则应后置。形容词作表语时,位于系动词之后。
(2)副词在句中的位置相对比较灵活,通常情况下,表示时间、地点的副词位于句尾;频度副词位于实义动词之前,助动词、情态动词或be动词之后;程度副词位于所修饰的形容词或副词之前,助动词、情态动词或be动词之后;方式副词位于所修饰的动词之后。
3.形容词和副词的比较等级。
(1)形容词和副词的比较等级的变化规则:单音节和部分双音节的形容词和副词在词尾加-er,-est构成比较级和最高级;大部分双音节和多音节的形容词和副词在其前加more,most构成比较级和最高级;以不发音的字母e结尾的形容词和副词在词尾直接加-r,-st构成比较级和最高级;以辅音字母加y结尾的形容词和副词,把y变为i再加-er,-est构成比较级和最高级。
(2)一些需要特殊记忆的形容词和副词的比较等级:good/well→better→best;many/much→more→most等。
注意:much,even,still,a little等可用来修饰形容词和副词的比较等级;而very,quite,too等可用来修饰形容词和副词的原级。
4.含有形容词或副词比较等级的常用结构。
(1)“比较级+than...”表示“比……更……”。
(2)“最高级+of/in/among...”表示“……中最……”。
(3)“as+形容词或副词的原级+as...”表示“与……一样……”;“not as/so+形容词或副词的原级+as...”表示“不如……;不像……一样……”。
