知識點：
1． 形容詞，副詞的比較等級考查熱點透視：
a.表示A與B在程度上相同時， “as+形容詞或副詞的原級+as”結構。表示A不如B時，可用“not as/so+形容詞或副詞的原級+as”結構。
b.表示A比B在程度上“更…..”時，可用“形容詞或副詞的比較級+than”結構
c.表示三者或三者以上的比較，其中一個在程度上“最…..”時，常用“the+形容詞或副詞的最高級”結構，后面可帶“of/in的短語”來說明比較的范圍。（注意：副詞的最高級在句中常省略“the”.）
d.在形容詞或副詞的比較級前，可以用“a little, even, far, much,still”的等詞語來修飾，以加強語氣。
e.表示“越來越….”時，常用“形容詞或副詞的比較級+and+形容詞或副詞的比較級”結構，但要注意，對于多音節和部分雙音節形容詞，副詞而言，若要表達此意時，要用“more and more+形容詞或副詞的原級“結構。
f.在表示“其中最….之一“的含義時，常使用 “one of+the+形容詞最高級形式+名詞復數”結構，其中的定冠詞the不可以省略。
g.如果強調“兩者中比較…的（一個）”的意思時，可使用“the+形容詞比較級+其它”結構。
h.表示“越….越….”, 可使用“the+形容詞或副詞的比較級，the+形容詞或副詞的比較級”結構。
2． 幾個相似的“It句型”
A.It’s +adj.+ that從句：在該句型中，it代替that從句，形容詞用來說明that從句內容的性質。如，It’s polite that you always give seats to the elderly on the bus.
B.It’s +adj.+to do sth.在該句型中，it代替to do sth的內容，形容詞用來說明to do sth的性質。如，It’s useful to remember lots of words before the exams.
C.It’s +adj.+for sb. to do sth.在該句型中，it代替to do sth的內容，形容詞用來強調to do sth就sb而言的性質（常見的形容詞有possible, important, necessary, difficult）
D.It’s +adj.+of sb. to do sth.在該句型中，it代替to do sth.的內容，形容詞用來強調of后所接賓語本身的性質（常見的形容詞有kind, rude, clever, foolish, polite）.
3.一般將來時
a)般將來時的構成：由助動詞shall或will加動詞原形構成，shall用于第一人稱。在口語中，will在名詞或代詞后常簡略為’ll， will not常簡略為won’t。這個時態的肯定，否定和疑問結構可表示如下：
肯定句 否定句 疑問句
I (We)shall(will) go.
You(He, She, They) will go. I(We)shall(will) not go.
You(He, She, They)will not go. Shall I(we) go?
Will you (he, she, they) go?
用”be going to +動詞原形”也可表示將來時，表示將要發生的事，打算或決定要做的事。
I think it is going to snow.我看要下雪。
b)一般將來時的用法：1）表示將要發生的動作或情況；2） 不以人的意志為轉移，肯定要發生的事情。
The day after tomorrow will be National Day.后天是國慶日。
4. in/after:in是指以現在時間為起點的“在一段時間以后”。也可以表示“在將來多少時間之內”，句子中的謂語動詞要用一般將來時態；after常指以過去時間為起點的“一段時間之后”，所以它與過去時態連用。當after指某個特定的未來時刻或日期之后，或指以將來某一時間為起點的若干時間之后時，它可以與將來時態連用。
5.more, less, fewer的用法區別：more為many, much的比較級，意為“更多”，可修飾可數與不可數名詞。Less是little的比較級，意為“更好，較少”，修飾不可數名詞。Fewer是few的比較級，意為“更少”，修飾可數名詞復數。
【注意】few, little表示否定“幾乎沒有”。a few, a little表示肯定“一點，幾個”。如，
Because he often stays at home, he has few friends. He is poor, so he has little money.
6.there be與have的區別：1）含義不同。there be表示的是“某地（時）有某人（物）”，強調“存在關系”。Have則表示“某人（物）所有”，強調“所屬關系”。如，
There is a bus in your factory.（公共汽車不一定屬于我們廠所有）
Our factory has a bus.（公共汽車屬于我們廠所有）
2）句型不同。there be句型為“There be +某人（物）+某時（地）”；have 句型為“某人（物）+have(has)+某物（人）。如There isn’t a cat under the chair. She doesn’t have two brothers.
3)當表示某物的構成和組成部分時，用there be和have 均可。如，
Our school has sixty classes.= There are sixty classes in our school.我們學校有60個班。
【注意】there be句型中有兩個或多個并列主語時，須根據就近原則，be與最靠近的主語在數上保持一致。如，There are two eggs and a cup of milk on the table.
There be句型的將來時表達方式:肯定：There will be…否定：There won’t be…一般疑問句：Will there be….? Yes, there will. No, there won’t.
7. be worth doing值得；be worthy of doing, be worthy to do值得
8．Seem的用法：1)seem to do似乎…He seems to think so.2)It seems that看來…It seems that he is lying. 3) seem +adj./n.好象是… He seems ill.
9.would like sth意思為“想要某物“； would like to do意思為”想要做某事“。回答would like句型的一般疑問句時，其肯定回答為 “Yes, please.”;否定回答“No, thanks”或 “I’d like /love to, but….”
10.make sb. do; make +n+adj.; make friends with sb.; make +n./ pron.+n.
11. Such作形容詞，意思是“如此的”“這樣的”，修飾各種名詞。
Such這樣的。如It is such bad weather.天氣如此惡劣。
Such常和as搭配，表示一種類別。如We enjoy such a voice as hers.我們喜歡象她那樣的嗓子。
Such常和表示結果的that從句搭配，表示“如此….以至于…”如
It was such a hot day that we all had to stay at home.
Such…that…和so…that…都可用來引出一個結果狀語從句。由于such是形容詞，所以that從句前有一個
such修飾的名詞；而so 是副詞，用以修飾形容詞或副詞，因此that從句前一般不出現名詞。如
They are such kind-hearted teachers that people in the village all respect them.
The exam was so difficult that many students failed to pass it.
a) 如果名詞是可數名詞的單數形式，such和so的位置不同：
such+a/an+形容詞+單數名詞
so+形容詞+a/an+單數名詞
b) 如果名詞是不可數名詞或名詞復數，只可用such,不能用so.:
such+形容詞+不可數名詞或復數名詞
c) 如果被修飾的不可數名詞被much, little, 或復數名詞被many, few等表示量的形容詞修飾時，用so，不用such.
d) 當little表示“年紀小的”時，可用such+little+名詞
There were such little children that they couldn’t clean the room.
12. people, person, folks, human: people“人們“全體；person “人”（不分年齡，性別它包括men, women, children.它可做people的單數形式可以說every person但不能說one people. Person指“人們”時著重個體；folks“人們”，指一般人或特殊年齡位置，境遇等特殊級的人；human主要用來區別于其他動物。
13．be able to 為“能，會”，表示能力，在這個意義上與can的意思相同，一般情況下兩者可以互換，但can只有現在式和過去式（could）而be able to則用于更多的時態，主要體現在be的變化。兩者在用法上有一些差異：can （could）表示主觀能力不表示意愿，它的將來時用will be able to而 be able to表示主觀意愿強調克服困難做某事。
14．feed-fed-fed. feed sth to sb把…食物給…;feed sb on sth以……為主食喂養某人
15可數名詞復數的構成有如下規則：
①一般加-s，如：desk→desks book-books, radio-radios, play-palys, girl-girls, boy-boys, house-houses
② s, x, ch, sh結尾加-es，如：bus→buses, watch→watches , box-boxes, brush-brushes, fox--foxes
③以 f, fe結尾，改f, fe為v，再加-es，如：leaf→leaves , knife-knives, wife-wives,
④以“輔音字母＋y”結尾，改y為i，再加-es，如city→cities , story-stories, family--families
⑤以“輔音字母＋o”結尾，加-es，如：tomato →tomatoes , potato-potatoes; hero--heroes
⑥一般復合名詞，只將主體名詞變復數，如： boy student→boy students
⑦以 man, woman開頭和結尾的復合名詞，規則不同： Frenchman→Frenchmen, woman teacher→women teachers
⑧不規則變化： foot→feet, child→children
單、復數同形的情況：sheep→sheep, Chinese→Chinese（中國人） , Japanese-Japanese, fish-fish, deer-deer
只有復數形式的情況： people, clothes, trousers , glasses, gloves, shoes需要背誦的是：第6頁的3a
