形容词比较级、最高级
一、形容词比较级、最高级变化规则
1.单音节词的变化：
情况
加词尾法
例词
一般情况
直接加词尾
small, smaller, smallest
以e 结尾的词
加-r, -st
large, larger, largest
以辅音＋y 结尾的词
变y 为i，再加词尾
busy, busier, busiest
以重读闭音节结尾的词
将这字母双写再加词尾
big, bigger, biggest
2. 双音节、多音节词的变化：
(1) 少数以-er, ow, -ble 结尾的双音节词，末尾加-er（比较级），-est（最高级）。以-e 结尾的词
只加-r 和-st。eg: clever cleverer cleverest narrow narrower narrowest able abler ablest，其他双
音节都在前面加单词more 和most。

三个或三个以上音节的形容词只能加more 和most。例如：more/most beautiful

unhappier→unhappiest untidier→untidiest
(3) 由--ing 分词和--ed 分词演变过来的形容词(包括不规则动词如know→known)只能加more 或
2
most 来表示它们的比较级和最高级。
more(most) striking more(most) interesting more(most) wounded

many /much more most
little less least
far farther farthest /further furthest

not + as + adj/ adv 原级+ as 例如：Tom is not as tall as Mike. Tom 不如Mike 高。

The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold
drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be
good for your health. There are plenty of "energy(能量) drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful
9
colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!
But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them.
These drinks are especially(尤其) aimed at(针对) young people, students, busy people and sports players.
Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to
drink too much.
Caffeine makes your heart beat( 跳动) fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has
limited( 限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or
tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can
make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers
should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.
