几个特殊的形容词和副词的比较级和最高级 比较级和最高级的常用句型 1.形容词在句中作定语时的位置: 形容词作定语,一般放在所修饰名词的前面。但在下列情况下,形容词要放在所修饰词的后面作后置定语: (1)形容词修饰由some, any, no, every, 与one, body, thing (where) 等构成的复合不定代词(副词)时。 eg. Is there anything_interesting? (2)少数以a开头的形容词,如:awake, alive, asleep作定语时。 eg. He was the only boy awake_at the time of earthquake.

(3)形容词短语作定语时。 eg. He carried a basket full_of_stones on his back.
(4)形容词比较级前可以用表示数量或程度的词修饰,常用的有: even, much, far, a little, a bit, no, twice, three times, etc.
eg. This car is far_cheaper_than that one.
This park is four_times bigger than that park.
形容词和副词的位置与功能 (5)by far 用于强调,意为“……得多”,“最……”,“显然”等,可修饰形容词或副词的比较级和最高级,通常置于其后;若比较级或最高级前有冠词,则可置于其前或其后。如: It's quicker by_far to go by train.

形容词和副词的位置与功能
1. 某些以ly 结尾的词是形容词而不是副词。如: friendly, lively, lovely, lonely, likely, deadly, orderly 等。
易错易混点
2. 有些副词有两种形式,一个与形容词同形,一个以ly 结尾,但它们的含义是不同的。以ly 结尾的词表较为抽象的含义,而与形容词同形的副词则表较为具体的概念。 wide / high / deep (具体的意义)宽/高/深 widely / highly / deeply(抽象意义)广泛地/高度地/深深地 close 靠近地 — closely 密切地、仔细地 late迟的 — lately最近、近来 dead死的 — deadly极其、非常 bad坏的 — badly非常地、恶劣地

most十分、非常,最多(大)的 — mostly主要地、绝大多数地、多半
eg. He is highly praised for what he has done. (高度地) He can see a bird flying high in the sky. (飞得高,具有可见性)
易错易混点
3. 注意多个形容词(含其他起形容词作用的词)前置定语的顺序。常用的顺序为: 限定词+外观描绘性词+形状+年龄(新旧)+颜色+国籍+材料+名词。 可用“县(限定词)官(外观)行(形状)令(年龄新旧)宴(颜色)国(国籍)材(材料)”谐音记忆。 eg. a beautiful white Japanese military jeep一辆漂亮的白色的日本军用吉普车
易错易混点
4. 形容词作表语。一定要注意系动词的出现情况。这是一个高考热点问题。 常见系动词有:be
变化系动词: become, get, turn, grow, go 保持系动词: keep, remain, stay 感官系动词: look, smell, taste, feel, sound, appear, seem, prove, etc.
5. 形容词作状语,表状况、原因、结果等。这也是应注意的一点。 He went to bed, _cold_and_hungry.
