1、.,1,形容詞、副詞及其比較級、最高級,.,2,1.形容詞的修飾與位置,一般來說，從構(gòu)詞法角度來看，后綴 “ ly”往往是副詞，但有的以“ ly ”結(jié)尾的詞是形容詞而不是副詞，這點(diǎn)要注意； 形容詞一般可以在句子中做定語，表語等成份，但有些形容詞在句子中只能做表語和只能做前置定語，這些形容詞在修飾時有一定的特殊性。,.,3,1.1 以-ly結(jié)尾的是形容詞而不是副詞 costly 昂貴的 lonely 孤獨(dú)的 deadly 死一般的 lively 活潑的 friendly 友好的 silly 傻氣的 kindly 熱心腸的 likely 可能的 leisurely 悠閑的 ugly 長得丑的 br

4、較級題目時，學(xué)生應(yīng)把握：1）形容詞和副詞比較級的形式是否和比較連詞對應(yīng)出現(xiàn)，即是否符合原級比較及比較級的結(jié)構(gòu)。,.,8,Do you enjoy listening to records? I find records are often _,or better than an actual performance. A as good as B as good C good D good as 在這里as good as 比較連詞與better than比較連詞同時出現(xiàn)時候，不能省略任何一個介詞。答案為A,.,9,2)比較的成分是否屬于同類事物或同類概念，既是說比較要具有可比性。,The n

5、umber of registered participants in this years marathon was half _ . A of last years B those of last years C of those of last year D that of last years,.,10,（前后相比的應(yīng)該是今年和去年注冊參加的人數(shù)“the number of”故代替它的應(yīng)該是單數(shù)指示代詞“that”，而不能選擇B，those是指代participants，不是同類對比，答案為D。,.,11,3)比較級與倍數(shù)詞關(guān)系及其位置,原級結(jié)構(gòu)中可插入表達(dá)倍數(shù)的詞，表示為“為.若干倍

6、”,當(dāng)與有表示倍數(shù)比較的詞在一起時候等，他們的位置是，倍數(shù)詞+asas,或倍數(shù)詞+morethan，但again一般放在原級詞之后，即 “as+原級again + as”.如,.,12,Smoking is so harmful to personal health that it kills people each year _ than automobile accidents. A seven more times B seven times more C over seven times D seven times,.,13,“Do you regret paying_ as five

7、 hundred dollars for the painting ?”“No, I would gladly have paid for it.” A twice so much B twice as much C as much twice D so much twice,.,14,4）下列詞和短語不用比較級形式卻表示比較概念：,inferior, minor, senior, prior, prefer to, superior, major, junior, preferable, differ from, compared with, in comparison with, diff

8、erent from, rather than.,.,15,如: Their watch is _ to all the other watches on the market. A superior B advantageous C super D beneficial,.,16,5）“比較級and +比較級”或“more and more/less and less +原級”以及“ever, steadily, daily等副詞比較級”結(jié)構(gòu)表示“越來越”的意思，與這類結(jié)構(gòu)搭配的常用動詞有g(shù)row, get ,become等。 前面兩種情況更多地出現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時態(tài)中，注意的是這三種情況引導(dǎo)的比較

9、級后面都不需要用than.如：,.,17,Things are getting worse and worse. As I spoke to him he became less and less angry. Her health was becoming daily worse . The road got ever worse until there was no road at all = the road got worse and worse.,.,18,6)比較級前面可以用even, still, yet ,all the (more)等修飾語用以加強(qiáng)語氣，表示“更加”的意思。如

10、： Today it is even colder than yesterday .I have yet more exciting news for you .,.,19,7) 有關(guān)比較級的特殊句型：,A): not so much as 需要注意的： 從結(jié)構(gòu)上來看，notso much as 可以有兩種結(jié)構(gòu)：not A so much as B 或not so much A as B; 從意思來看，該句型的基本含義為:“與其說A倒不如說B”,或者“是B，而不是A”。但在實(shí)際翻譯中十分靈活。 A和B兩個被比較的平行結(jié)構(gòu)，如：同為介詞短語、動詞不定式、名詞短語或其他平行結(jié)構(gòu)。,.,20,The

11、 conveniences that American desire reflect not so much a leisurely lifestyle as a busy lifestyle in which even minutes of time are too valuable to be wasted. 此處平行結(jié)構(gòu)是兩個名詞短語： a leisurely lifestyle 和a busy lifestyle，兩者都作reflect的賓語。 譯文：美國人所渴望的種種便利設(shè)施，與其說是反映了一種休閑的生活方式，倒不如說是反映了一種忙碌的生活方式，正因為忙碌，所以每分鐘都很寶貴而不容浪

12、費(fèi)。,.,21,The great use of a school education is not so much to teach you things as to teach you the art of learning. 評析：這里被比較的是兩個不定式： to teach you things 和to teach you the art of learning. 譯文：學(xué)校教育的偉大作用不在于教會你多少東西，而在于教會你學(xué)習(xí)的技巧。,.,22,The great thing in this world is not so much where we stand as in what

13、direction we are moving. 人生的意義不在于你目前身在何處，而在于你心向何方。 He does not respect learning and prefers “sport”. The problem set for society is not the virtue of the type so much as its adequacy for its function. 他不重視學(xué)習(xí)，只喜歡“消遣”。社會要回答的問題并不是這類人物有無美德，而是他是否勝任其職務(wù)。,.,23,B) no/not any morethan兩者一樣都不,如：The heart is _ i

14、ntelligent than the stomach, for they are both controlled by the brain. A not so B not much C much more D no more 心臟和胃兩者都不具有智力，他們都受大腦控制。 答案為D,.,24,no/not any lessthan兩者一樣,都,注意基本上與no/not any morethan意思相反 如： She is no less beautiful than her sister. 她和她姐姐一樣漂亮,.,25,（just） as， so 正如， 也（用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)）,Just as th

15、e soil is a part of the earth, _ the atmosphere. A as it is B the same is C so is D and so is,.,26,Just as dark clouds cannot long hide the sun, so no lies can cover up the fact. 烏云遮不住太陽，謊言掩蓋不了事實(shí)。 Just as food nourishes the body, so do books enrich the mind. 食物滋養(yǎng)身體，書本豐富心靈。,.,27,Just 也可以省去，比如， As you

16、 sow, so will you reap/so you will reap. 種瓜得瓜，種豆得豆。 As land is improved by sowing it with various seeds, so is the mind by exercising it with different studies. 土壤因播種不同的種子而改良，智力用各科的學(xué)習(xí)來提高。,.,28,E) more A than B 與其說是B不如說是A less A than B 與其說是A不如說是B 如: It is even more a picture than a poem . 這與其說是一首詩，倒不

17、如說是一幅畫。 It is less a picture than a poem. 這與其說是幅畫，倒不如說是首詩。,.,29,F) 用作前置修飾語的more than，less than, no more than /nothing more than 如： We will be more than happy(=very happy) to help you. 我們會很高興幫助你。 The children were less than happy about having a party. 孩子們對舉行聚會并不那么開心。,.,30,He is no more than a child.

18、他不過是個孩子。 He was regarded as nothing more than (=only) an amateur. 他僅僅被看作業(yè)余愛好者。,.,31,2.2 比較范圍,1）最高級比較范圍用介詞in, over, of, among。 in, (all) over用于在某一范圍內(nèi)的比較，如：in China, all over the world. of, among用于在同一群體內(nèi)同類事物的比較，如：among the teachers, of the four dresses.,.,32,如： _ all visible lights, red light has the

19、longest and violet the shortest wavelength. A Among B Of C For D To,.,33,2)比較級形式表示最高級意義時，比較對象的范圍應(yīng)用：,any other +單數(shù)名詞 other +復(fù)數(shù)名詞 the others anyone/anything else 上述詞是用于將比較級結(jié)構(gòu)轉(zhuǎn)變成最高級意義的關(guān)鍵詞語，切不可遺漏，尤其是other，否則會造成邏輯混亂的錯誤。如不能說：John runs faster than anyone.注意與漢語表達(dá)的不同。,.,34,3）most可以用來修飾形容詞或副詞，意思相當(dāng)于very，用法區(qū)分單復(fù)

20、數(shù)，但不能用定冠詞the 如： a most interesting book，most expensive restaurants 要注意與 “the +形容詞最高級of + 名詞”的結(jié)構(gòu)表示的最高級的區(qū)別,.,35,He spoke in the warmest of voices . They have been most kind to me . Basketball is the most popular of sports in this country. Chinese is the most difficult of language. Chinese is a most di

23、3.7含有絕對概念的有：absolute, entire, whole, total, perfect, excellent, thorough, complete.,.,39,4.平行結(jié)構(gòu)與比較級,平行結(jié)構(gòu)很多情況下是由形容詞或副詞的比較級或者暗含比較意味的連詞引導(dǎo)的。如： The ideal listener stays both inside and outside the music at the moment it is played and enjoys it almost as much as the composer does at the moment he composes

24、. 評析：此處does代替enjoys,表示對音樂的欣賞，as much as表示“同等程度上” 譯文：一個真正懂音樂的聽眾應(yīng)該是在聽音樂時，既置身于音樂其中，又可游離于音樂之外，他對音樂的欣賞程度，幾乎等同于作曲家本人在創(chuàng)作該曲子時的欣賞程度。,.,40,大多數(shù)情況下平行結(jié)構(gòu)都是具有一定的比較含義的 有的是遞進(jìn)對比: not onlybut (also) ;preferto;rather than 有的是同類對比： and ;but；or；both and；eitheror; neithernor.,.,41,平行結(jié)構(gòu)測試時候注意以下幾點(diǎn)：,4.1注意比較結(jié)構(gòu)中相比較的內(nèi)容在語法形式上是否相

25、同。如： It is better to die ones feet than _ . A living on ones knees B live on ones knees C on ones knees D to live on ones knees,.,42,4.2其他具有并列或比較意義的短語也可引導(dǎo)平行結(jié)構(gòu) 1）rather than, let alone 雖不是并列連詞，但在結(jié)構(gòu)上連接兩個語法形式相同的成分。 如：We are taught that a business letter should be written in a formal style_ in a persona

26、l style. A rather than B other than C better than D less than,.,43,For the new country to survive,_ for its people to enjoy prosperity, new economic policies will be required. A to name a few B let alone C not to speak D lets say,.,44,2）如果平行的兩個成分在形式上是介詞短語，而且介詞相同，一般說來第二個介詞不要省略。 如： At times, more care
