A further,furthest
这两个词同farther/farthest一样,可作表示地点、距离的副词用:
It isnt safe to go any further/farther in this fog.
在这大雾里再往前走是不安全的。
但它们也可以用于表示抽象的概念:
Mr A said that these toy pistols should not be on sale.
甲先生说这些玩具手枪不应该出售。
Mr B went further and said that no toy pistols should be sold.
乙先生更进一步,说所有的玩具手枪都不该出售。
Mr C went furthest of all and said that no guns of any kind should besold.
丙先生最为激烈,说任何枪都应严禁出售。
B 关于far的用法限制
far的比较级和最高级用法都比较自由:
He travelled further than we expected.
他比我们预料的去得远。
far的原级形式主要用于表示否定和疑问的词句中:
How far can you see?
I cant see far.你能看多远?
我看不太远。
在表示肯定的词句中a long way要比far更常见。a long way away也要比far away常见:
They sailed a long way.
他们航行了很远。
He lives a long way away.
他住得离这里很远。
但very far away也是可以的,而so/quite/too+far和far+enough也是可以的:
They walked so far that
他们走了如此远,以致
They walked too far.
他们走得太远了。
Weve gone far enough.
我们已经走得够远了。
far也可用于表示抽象的概念:
The new law doesnt go far enough.
这条新的法律还不够严厉。
Youve gone too far!
你太过份了!(你太侮辱人了/架子太大了/太蛮横无礼了等。)
表示程度时的副词far,应与比较级或与too/so+原级形式连用:
She swims far better than I do.
她游泳要比我游得好多了。
He drinks far too much.
他酒喝得太多了。
