英語形容詞和副詞的語法詳解

一、原級比較的基本用法

1. 原級比較由"as+形容詞或副詞(或再加名詞或短語)+as "構成"原級相同"比較句,表示兩者比較;其否定式,即"程度不及"比較句型為"not so(as) +形容詞或副詞+as",而且as…as結構前可用just, almost, nearly, quite等表示程度的詞修飾

2. "as (so)+名詞+as+名詞"進行名詞比較,這時一般情況下有一個表示原級的比較詞,但如果第一名詞前出現了形容詞修飾該詞或出現副詞修飾謂語,應當用so而不用as

二、比較級

1. 比較級由"形容詞(副詞)比較級+than+…,"構成表示在兩者中間一方比另一方"更加…",英語語法詳解 形容詞和副詞(二)。連詞than後可接句子,也可接名詞、代詞、名詞短語、介詞短語、動詞、動詞不定式、ING結構和睧D結構,有時也可省去than。

2. 注意than前後兩項相比較的人或事物要一致

三、最高階

1. 最高階用於三者以上比較,形容詞的結構形式是"定冠詞+形容詞最高階+名詞+表示範圍的短語或從句"(如all, of all, of the tree, in the world, that has ever taken place等)

2. 副詞的最高階與形容詞最高階的區別在於最高階前沒有定冠詞the

四、同步練習

1) Walking briskly for thirty minutes will burn as many calories as .

[A] to run for fifteen minutes

[B] running for fifteen minutes

[C] you run for fifteen minutes

[D] fifteen瞞inute walking

解析

:B為正確答案。

2) The gorilla(大猩猩), while [A] not quite as curious than [B] the chimpanzee(黑猩猩), shows more persistence [C] and memory retention(記憶力) in solving [D] a problem.

解析:B錯。改為 as ,和前面的as和形容詞原形curious 一起構成同程度比較。

3) Alaska is twice [A] as larger [B] as [C] the next largest [D] state, Texas.

解析:B錯。 改為as large。

4) Thomas Jefferson's achievements as an architect rival his contributions a politician.

[A] such [B] more [C] as [D] than

解析:C對。動詞rival(勝過、匹敵)前後是兩個相比較的成分achievements(成果)和 contributions(貢獻),由於前面的`名詞後出現了短語 as an architect,故空白處也應用as,使前後對比成分一致。

5) I should say Henry is not much a writer as a reporter.

[A] that [B] so [C] this [D] as

解析:B為正確答案,英語語法《英語語法詳解 形容詞和副詞(二)》。

6) Natural mica(雲母) of [A] a superior [B] quality is cheapest [C] to obtain than synthetic [D] mica.

解析:C錯。應改為比較級cheaper。比較級後並不一定跟接連詞than,有時在其間有名詞或名詞短語(被形容詞所修飾),介詞短語,不定式或其他成分隔開。

7) She is older than .

[A] any other girl in the group [B] any girl in the group

[C] all girls in the group [D] you and me as well as the group

解析:A為正確答案。"She"作為單個不能跟全組比(C和D不對),也不能跟全組所有相比,因為"她"也是其中一員,自然"她"不能跟自己相比。這裡"She"比較的是"這組中的任何一個",所以A對。

8) Josephine McCrackin joined [A] the "Santa Cruz Sentinel" in 1905 and, until her death fifteen years late [B] , remained [C] active in journalistic [D] work.

解析:B錯。應改為比較級later,因此處實為與1905年相比晚15年,故應使用比較級。

9) The purpose of the research had a more important meaning for them than .

[A] ours [B] with us [C] for ours it had [D] it did for us

解析:D為正確答案。

10) Sound travels air.

[A] faster through water than through [B] faster than through water and

[C] through water faster and[D] where it is faster through water than through

解析:A為正確答案。

11) Gerbrand von den Feckhout, one of Rembrand's pupils, followed [A] the style of his teacher so implicitly that [B] his paintings [C] are sometimes confused with his master [D] .

解析:D錯。 改為his master's。

12) The more [A] fearsome of all the [B] animals in [C] the Western [D] Hemisphere is the grizzly bear.

解析:A錯。 改為most。

13) Of all economic [A] problems, inflation continues to be [B] a [C] most significant in its daily impact on [D] people and business.

解析:C錯。改為the, significant是多音節形容詞,在此處應用最高階形式(在前面加 the most),注意句中的"of all… "。

14) ,the most familiar to general public is the criminal jurisdiction.

[A] All the activities [B] The activities

[C] Of all the activities [D] It is the activities

解析:C為正確答案。本句空白處缺狀語,A和B全為名詞短語,不符合條件;D為句子,和空白後面的句子沒有任何聯絡,故亦應排除。只有C正確,和後面的最高階the most familiar前後呼應。
