形容詞與副詞的比較級
大多數形容詞（性質形容詞）和副詞有比較級和最高級的變化，即原級、比較級和最高級，用來表示事物的等級差別。原級即形容詞的原形，比較級和最高級有規則變化和不規則變化兩種。
1） 規則變化
單音節詞和少數雙音節詞，在詞尾加-er，-est來構成比較級和最高級。
構成法 原級 比較級 最高級
一般單音節詞 tall（高的） taller tallest
末尾加-er,-est great（巨大的） greater greatest
以不發音的e結尾 nice（好的） nicer nicest
的單音節 large（大的） larger largest
以- le結尾的雙 able（有能力的） abler ablest
音節詞只加-r,-st
以一個輔音字母 big（大的） bigger biggest
結尾的閉音節單 hot（熱的） hotter hottest
音節詞，雙寫結
尾的輔音字母，
再加-er，-est
“以輔音字母+y” easy（容易的） easier easiest
結尾的雙音節詞，busy（忙的） busier busiest
改y為i，再加-er，-est
少數以-er，-ow clever（聰明的） cleverer cleverest
結尾的雙音節詞 narrow（窄的） narrower narrowest
末尾加-er，-est
其他雙音節詞和 important（重要的） more important
多音節詞，在前 most important
面加more，most
來構成比較級和 easily（容易地）
最高級 more easily most easily
2）不規則變化
原級 比較級 最高級
good（好的）/ better best
well（健康的）
bad （壞的）/ worse worst
ill（有病的）
old （老的） older/elder oldest/eldest
much/many（多的） more most
little（少的） less least
far （遠的） farther/further farthest/furthest
as + 形容詞或副詞原級 + as
1）在否定句或疑問句中可用so… as。
He cannot run so/as fast as you.
2）當as… as 中間有名詞時采用以下格式。
as +形容詞+ a/an +單數名詞+as
as + many/much +名詞+as
This is as good an example as the other is.
I can carry as much paper as you can.
3）用表示倍數的詞或其他程度副詞做修飾語時，放在as的前面。
This room is twice as big as that one.
Your room is the same size as mine.
4）倍數+ as + adj. + as <=> 倍數+ the + of
This bridge is three times as long as that one.
This bridge is three times the length of that one.
Your room is twice as large as mine.
Your room is twice the size of mine.
比較級形容詞或副詞 + than
You are taller than I.
The lights in your room are as bright as those in mine.
注意：
1）要避免重復使用比較級。
（錯） He is more cleverer than his brother.
（對） He is more clever than his brother.
（對） He is cleverer than his brother.
2）要避免將主語含在比較對象中。
（錯） China is larger that any country in Asia.
（對） China is larger than any other countries in Asia.
3）要注意對應句型，遵循前后一致的原則。
The population of Shanghai is larger than that of Beijing.
It is easier to make a plan than to carry it out.
4）要注意冠詞的使用，后有名詞的時候，前面才有可能有冠詞。
比較：Which is larger, Canada or Australia?
Which is the larger country, Canada or Australia?
She is taller than her two sisters.
She is the taller of the two sisters.
可修飾比較級的詞
1）a bit, a little, rather, much, far, by far, many, a lot, lots, a great deal, any, still, even等。
2）還可以用表示倍數的詞或度量名詞作修飾語。
3）以上詞（除by far）外，必須置于比較級形容詞或副詞的前面。
例題：
1） ---- Are you feeling ____?
---- Yes，I'm fine now.
A. any well B. any better C. quite good D. quite better
答案：B any 可修飾比較級，quite修飾原級，well的比較級為better。
2）The experiment was____ easier than we had expected.
A. more B. much more C. much D. more much
答案：C much可修飾比較級，因此B，C都說得通，但easier本身已是比較級，不需more，因此C為正確答案。
3）If there were no examinations, we should have ___ at school.
A. the happiest time B. a more happier time
C. much happiest time D. a much happier time
答案：D
物主代詞：
物主代詞可分為形容詞性物主代詞和名詞性物主代詞。
1. 形容詞性物主代詞起形容詞的作用，用在名詞前。
例：①This is my book.這是我的書。
②We love our motherland.我們熱愛我們的祖國。
2. 名詞性物主代詞起名詞的作用。
名詞性物主代詞=形容詞性物主代詞+名詞
為避免重復使用名詞，有時可用“名詞性物主代詞”來代替“形容詞性物主代詞+名詞”的形式
例：My bag is yellow, her bag is red, his bag is blue and your bag is pink.
可寫成My bag is yellow, hers is red, his is blue and yours is pink.
Look at the two pencils. The red one is yours and the blue one is mine.
看那兩支鉛筆，紅的是你的，藍的是我的。
一覽表
however可為復合關系副詞。
（1）（引領讓步從句）無論如何
However hard he may try, he cannot do it in a week.
（= No matter how hard he may try, …）
無論他怎樣努力工作，也不能在一星期內做好。
however有時可表達“然而”、“可是”之意，出現于句中或句尾。
They said that it was so；they were mistaken，however.
他們說事情就是如此，可是他們錯了。
系動詞：
系動詞亦稱連系動詞，作為系動詞，它本身有詞義，但不能單獨用作謂語，后邊必須跟表語（亦稱補語），構成系表結構說明主語的狀況、性質、特征等情況。
說明：有些系動詞又是實義動詞，該動詞表達實義時，有詞義，可單獨作謂語，例如：
He fell ill yesterday.
他昨天病了。（fell是系動詞，后跟補足語，說明主語情況。）
He fell off the ladder.
他從梯子上摔下來。fell是實義動詞，單獨作謂語。
1）狀態系動詞
用來表示主語狀態，只有be一詞，例如：He is a teacher. 他是一名教師。（is與補足語一起說明主語的身份。）
2）持續系動詞
用來表示主語繼續或保持一種狀況或態度，主要有keep, rest, remain, stay, lie, stand, 例如：
He always kept silent at meeting. 他開會時總保持沉默。
This matter rests a mystery. 此事仍是一個謎。
3）表像系動詞
用來表示“看起來像”這一概念，主要有seem, appear, look, 例如：
He looks tired. 他看起來很累。
He seems （to be） very sad. 他看起來很傷心。
4）感官系動詞
感官系動詞主要有feel, smell, sound, taste, 例如：
This kind of cloth feels very soft. 這種布手感很軟。
This flower smells very sweet. 這朵花聞起來很香。
5）變化系動詞
這些系動詞表示主語變成什么樣，變化系動詞主要有become, grow, turn, fall, get, go, come, run. 例如：
He became mad after that. 自那之后，他瘋了。
She grew rich within a short time. 她沒多長時間就富了。
6）終止系動詞
表示主語已終止動作，主要有prove, turn out, 表達“證實”，“變成”之意，例如：
The rumor proved false. 這謠言證實有假。
The search proved difficult. 搜查證實很難。
His plan turned out a success. 他的計劃終于成功了。（turn out表終止性結果）

Mr Perkin stood at the bus-stop and watched the cars go by. Many of the cars were new Beta 400s, and most of them were yellow. Mr Perkin always wore the same clothes as other men, ate the same food as other people, and did the same things after work, and at the end of the week, Mr Perkin did not like to be different.
The following week, Mr Perkin bought a new, bright yellow Beta 400s. He was satisfied with it, and drove to work in it the very next day. He was even more satisfied with his new car, when he saw all the other Beta 400s, in front, behind, and on both sides of him.
Mr Perkin parked（停車） his car in a big car-park（停車場） near his office, and walked the rest of the way. But when he came back at five o'clock, there were so many bright yellow Beta 400s in the car-park that he did not know which car was his. He tried his key in some of the cars, but people passing by gave him a look he didn't like. So he stopped.

【試題答案】
一、選擇
1. 答案：C 由“限定詞-數詞-描繪詞-（大小，長短，形狀，新舊，顏色）-性質-名詞”的公式可知數詞，描繪詞，性質依次順序，只有C符合答案。
2. 答案A 幾個形容詞修飾一個名詞，它們的排列順序是：年齡，形狀，大小+顏色+來源+質地+用途+國家+名詞。
3. 答案：B 本題考查多個形容詞的排序問題。一般與被修飾形容詞關系密切的形容詞靠近名詞；如果幾個形容詞的重要性差不多，音節少的形容詞在前，音節多的放在后。
4. 答案：D 本題意為“中國的天氣與美國的不同。”比較的是天氣而不是國家，C不能選。A沒有名詞，后句成分不全，排除。B和D中，B中的one常用來代替可數名詞，而that可以代替不可數或抽象名詞，所以選D。
5. 答案：C 此句意為“這個廠1988能生產的拖拉機是往年的兩倍”。表示倍數用“倍數+ as + 形容詞原形+ as +比較對象”的句型。所以此句答案為C。
例：This ruler is three times as long as that one.
6. 答案：B
