这是一个含义容易混淆的词,因为它有两个意思。
A quite与一些表示完整、完全的意思的词或词组如allright,certain,determined,empty,finished,hull,ready,right,sure,wrong等连用,或与一些具有强烈感情色彩的形容词、副词如amazing,extraordinary,horrible,perfect等连用时,它的意思是完全地、全然地:
The bottle was quite empty.
瓶子全空了。
Youre quite wrong.
你完全错了。
Its quite extraordinary;I cant understand it at all.
这件事太不寻常了,我根本没法理解。
B 在与其他形容词、副词连用时,quite略有减弱作用,因此quitegood赞誉的程度要比good轻。quite这样用时,其含义类似fairly,但它的强度根据它被重读的方式可以有很大的不同:
quitegood(quite弱读,good强读)只比good稍稍弱一点。
quitegood(重读强弱程度相同)意思是还算好。
quite good(quite强读,good弱读)远不如good。
quite的读音越轻,紧跟在它后面的形容词/副词的意思就越重。
quite的读音越轻,跟在后面的形容词/副词的意思就越重。
注意冠词a/an的位置:
quite a long walk一次较长的散步
quite an old castle一座较古老的城堡
