　　六、形容词、副词：

　　形容词：用来说明或修饰名词、代词的词称为形容词。

　　1.形容词的句法作用：作句子中名词的定语、句子的表语以及宾语补足语。

　　2.形容词在句子中的位置：

　　⑴作定语时放在名词的前面,且音节少的词放在音节多的词之前。如：a big yellow wooden wheel

　　⑵作表语时放在连系动词之后。如：The price sounds reasonable.

　　⑶作宾语补足语时放在宾语之后。如：We must try our best to keep our environment clean.

　　⑷后置的情况：

　　①修饰复合不定代词时放在代词之后。如：Something serious has happened to him.

　　②与表示长、宽、高、重、老、远离的词连用时形容词后置。如：Hes 1.8 metres tall.The moon is about 380,000 kilometres away from the earth.

　　3.有关形容词的用法辨析：

　　⑴ whole与all：记住两个词序：① the whole + 名词; ②all the + 名词。如：He was busy the whole morning. / He can remember all the words he learns.

　　⑵ tall与high, short与low：指人的个子时用tall与short;指其他事物时一般用high与low。如：Hes very tall/short. / Tall trees are standing on both sides of that avenue. / A few people live on high mountains.

　　⑶ real与true：real一般指东西的真假,译为真的而true则指事情或消息的可靠性,译为真实的。如：This is a real diamond and its very expensive. / --Is that true?Yes. I heard it with my own ears.

　　⑷ interested与interesting的区别：interesting指人或东西有趣的,作定语或表语,而interested则表示人对别的事物感兴趣的,只能作表语。如：The man is very interesting and all the children like him. / This book is interesting and you can really enjoy yourself. / I am interested in science.
