大家別擠，排排隊

郝麗華

一般情況下,多個形容詞修飾同一個名詞時,其順序為:限定詞→數詞→描繪詞(大小、長短、形狀、新舊、顏色)→出處→材料性質、類別→名詞。如:

a small round table

a tall gray building

a dirty old brown shirt

a famous German medical school

an expensive Japanese sports car

典型例題:

1.Tony is going camping with boys.

A.little two other

B.two little other

C.two other little

D.1ittle other two

答案:C。由“限定詞→數詞→描繪詞(大小、長短,形狀、新舊、顏色)→出處→性質→名詞”的公式可知應按數詞、描繪詞、性質的順序,只有C符合答案。

2.One day they crossed the bridge behind the palace.

A.old Chinese stone

B. Chinese old stone

C.old stone Chinese

D.Chinese stone old

答案:A。幾個形容詞修飾一個名詞,它們的排列順序是:年齡、新舊→來源→質地→名詞。

3. —How was your recent visit to Qingdao?

—It was great.We visited some friends, and spent the days at the seaside.

A.few last sunny

B.last few sunny

C.last sunny few

D.few sunny last

答案:B。本題考查多個形容詞的排序問題。一般與被修飾的名詞關系密切的形容詞靠近名詞。

如果幾個形容詞的重要性差不多,音節少的形容詞在前,音節多的放在后,在不能確定時,可參照以下順序:

限定詞+數量詞(序數詞在前,基數詞在后)+性狀形容詞+大小、長短、高低等形體+新舊+顏色+國籍+材料+名詞,如:

Those+three+beautiful+large+squar+old+brown+

wood+tables.
