03 形容词与副词考查要点及应对策略
【考点精析】
考点1形容词和副词的句法功能
1.形容词主要用来修饰名词、代词, 表示事物或人的性质和特征,可作定语、表语、宾语补足语、主语补足
语或状语等。
I have to attend an important meeting this afternoon. (作定语)
I know he is too optimistic but I don’t want to depress him. (作表语)
The room was found very dirty. (作主语补足语)
Optimism makes a life happier and more meaningful. (作宾语补足语)
Worried about the journey, I was unsettled for the first few days. (作状语)
注意:
(1)通常只作表语的形容词:
①以“a-”开头的形容词:afraid害怕的, alone孤单的, alive活着的, alike相似的, ashamed羞愧的, awake醒着
的;
②content, worth, ill(有病的,不舒服的), sure, liable, well等。
(2)通常不用“人”作主语的形容词:
possible, impossible, probable, convenient, necessary等。
(3)形容词作状语时,其逻辑主语必须与句子主语保持一致。
2.副词主要用来修饰动词、形容词、副词甚至整个句子,可作状语、表语、宾语补足语等。
Whenever we have trouble with our studies, our teachers help us patiently. (作状语)
The tide was out and they walked among the rock pools. (作表语)
Unfortunately, I was still very clumsy behind the wheel of the jeep. (作状语)
注意:
(1)有些副词并不修饰动词, 而是修饰整个句子, 表示说话人的看法。常见的这类副词有:
表递进 besides, further, then, moreover等
表结果 therefore, consequently, accordingly, thus等
表转折 though, instead, otherwise, however等
表等同 similarly, equally等
表对比 rather, oppositely等
表概括 altogether, generally等
表列举 first(ly), second(ly), finally等
表同位 namely等
表时间 meanwhile, sometimes, occasionally等表特指 particularly, especially等
(2)兼有两种形式的副词
其中一种形式与形容词相同,另一种形式是在形容词后加后缀-ly。这两种形式的副词表示的意义不同。
{close靠近地(指距离)
closely仔细地,密切地
{ free免费
freely自由地,自如地
{ deep深深地
deeply深刻地,非常
{ hard努力地
hardly几乎不
考点2形容词和副词的相互转化
1.大多数副词是由形容词加后缀-ly构成。主要变化规律:
转化方法 例词
real—really;
一般情况下,在形容词词尾直接加-ly
helpful—helpfully
busy—busily;
以辅音字母加-y结尾的形容词要变-y为i,然后
angry—angrily;
再加-ly
easy—easily
terrible—terribly;
以-le结尾,去e直接加-y
gentle—gently
元音字母+e 结尾,先去掉e,然后再加-ly true—truly
以ll结尾的形容词只加-y full—fully
其他特殊情况 automatic—
以ic结尾的形容词加-ally automatically;energetic—
energetically
2.在英语中,有些词既可以作形容词,又可以作副词。需要在特定语境中判断它们各自的词性。如 early,
much, fast, little, wide, loud, well等。
It brought a wide smile to his face and laughter to his eyes. (形容词)
In a few seconds she was wide awake. (副词)
注意:下列单词以-ly结尾, 但却是形容词而非副词:lively, lonely, lovely, deadly, friendly, ugly, silly, timely等。
考点3形容词和副词的比较级、最高级
1.比较级和最高级的构成
(1)规则形式
①单音节以及少数双音节形容词和副词, 在原级后加-er, -est构成, 如hard—harder—hardest。其他特殊变化见下表:
特殊情况 构成方式 例词
brave—braver—
以不发音的e结尾 加-r和-st
bravest
happy—happier—
以“辅音字母+y”结尾 变y为i, 再加-er和-est
happiest
以重读闭音节结尾 双写词尾字母, 再加-er和-est hot—hotter—hottest
②多音节和部分双音节形容词和副词,在原级前加more, most构成。
active—more active—most active
happily—more happily—most happily
注意:①少数双音节词及以-er或-le结尾的词,可以有两种比较级和最高级形式
common—commoner/more common—commonest/most common
②表示“最高程度”的形容词,如excellent, extreme, perfect, favorite等,没有最高级,也不能用比较级。
(2)不规则形式
good/well—better—best
far—farther/further—farthest/furthest
bad/ill/badly—worse—worst
2.比较等级的用法
(1)基本用法
①两者相比, 表示“和……一样”, 用“as+原级+as”表示。
He worked as fast as a qualified technician.
注意:在同级比较中, 若出现形容词修饰单数可数名词, 其语序为: as+adj.+a(n)+n.+as。
John is as clever a boy as you wish to meet.
②两者相比, 表示“不如……”, 用“not as/so+原级+as”。
It is not so expensive as you might expect.
③两者相比, 表示“比……更”, 用“比较级+than”;表示“不比……更”, 用“not+比较级+than”。
The process of learning and developing is more important than the outcome.
Her pronunciation is as good as, if not better than, her teacher’s.
注意:有些形容词本身含有比较的意义,其后面用to而不用than。如:superior to(优于,高于); inferior to (次
于); senior to (年长于,地位高于); junior to(地位低于); prior to (早于,较重要于)。
④三个或三个以上的人或事物比较, 表示最高程度时, 用“the+最高级+比较范围”。
Her sons are the most important people in her life.
(2)特殊用法
①“比较级+and+比较级”表示“越来越……”。Learning becomes more and more difficult as we get older.
②“the+比较级, the+比较级”表示“越……,就越……”。
The harder we work, the more progress we will make.
③“more+原级+than”表示“与其说……,不如说……”。
She is more diligent than clever.
④“more than+主语+can+谓语”表示“非……所能; ……不能”。
The beauty of the place is more than I can describe.
⑤“否定词+比较级”表示肯定的最高级。
I couldn’t agree with you any more.
⑥表示倍数的三个常用句型
a....倍数+as+原级+as...
The new building is three times as high as the old one.
b....倍数+比较级+than...
The new building is three times higher than the old one.
c....倍数+the size/length/width/height, etc.+of...
The new building is three times the height of the old one.
Our classroom is three times as large as theirs.
=Our classroom is three times larger than theirs.
=Our classroom is three times the size of theirs.
3.比较级的修饰语
(1)修饰比较级的常用词和短语有rather, much, still, even, far, a lot, a little, a great deal, (by) far, a bit等。
The theme of the play stood out even more clearly after it was revised.
(2)常用的最高级的修饰语有by far, nearly, almost, by no means, not really以及序数词等。
I would say that intellect is by far the most important factor.
考点4常用的分词形容词
-ed形容词和-ing形容词的区别:-ed形容词通常修饰人,意为“(某人)感到……”;-ing形容词通常修饰事物,
意为“(某事物)令人……”或“令人……的(事物)”。这样成对的形容词有:interested/interesting;excited/
exciting;frightened/frightening;surprised/surprising;pleased/pleasing;moved/moving;disappointed/disappointing
等。
The wine was excellent, but the food was disappointing.
We will be pleased to answer any questions you may have.
注意:原则上,-ed 形容词通常直接用于修饰人,若修饰事物,则多为 look (表情), air(神态), appearance(外貌),
cry(哭声), face(面部表情), voice(声音), mood(情绪)等显示某人的情感状况的名词。Roger just looked up at him with a surprised look.
A hand helped me out of the tree, and a frightened voice asked me if I was badly hurt.
