一、考點歸納
考點一:形容詞和副詞在句中的作用
1. 形容詞在句中通常作定語、表語和補語。如:
English is a useful language.英語是一門有用的語言。(作定語)
English is useful.英語很有用。(作表語)
I find English useful.我覺得英語很有用。(作補語)
2. 副詞在句中作做狀語,修飾動詞、形容詞、另一副詞、介詞短語,或者整個句子。如:
He walked quickly in order to get there on time.他為了按時到達那里,走得很快。(修飾動詞walked)
He walked very quickly.他走得很快。(副詞very修飾另一副詞quickly,quickly修飾謂語動詞)
考點二:形容詞和副詞的比較等級
1. 形容詞副詞的規則變化。
(1)一般在詞尾直接加er或est。如:long—longer—longest。
(2)以不發音的字母e結尾的,在詞尾直接加r或st。如:nice—nicer—nicest。
(3)以輔音字母+y結尾的,把y變為i,再加er或est。如:heavy—heavier—heaviest。
(4)以“一個元音字母+一個輔音字母”結尾的重讀音節,雙寫末尾這個輔音字母,再加er或est。如:big—bigger—biggest。
(5)部分雙音節詞和多音節詞分別在原級前加more構成比較級,加most構成最高級。如:slowly—more slowly—most slowly;beautiful—more beautiful—most beautiful。
2. 形容詞和副詞的比較等級的常用句型。
(1)表示相等:as + 原級+as
(2)表示不如:not as/ so +原級+as
(3)表示超出:比較級+than
(4)表示“最”:the+最高級+ of/in短語(表示比較的范圍)
注:除了“the +最高級”外,最高級還有其他的表達方式。如:否定詞never等與比較級連用;比較級+than any other+名詞單數;比較級+than any of the other+名詞復數;比較級+than anyone else等。如:
How beautifully she sings!I have never heard a better voice.她唱得多好聽呀!我從沒聽過比這更好的聲音。
(5)表示“越……越……”:the+比較級,the+比較級
(6)表示“越來越”:比較級+and+比較級
(7)表示“與其……不如……”:more...than...
(8)the+比較級 特指兩個人或物中較為突出的一個。
If the manager had to choose one of the two, he would say Tim was the better choice.如果說經理一定得從這兩個人中選擇一個,他會說Tim是更好的選擇。
(9)倍數的表達法:
① A + be +倍數 as +計量形容詞原級+as B
This house is three times as wide as that one. 這個房子是那個房子的三倍寬。
② A +be+倍數+計量形容詞比較級+than B
The car is exactly five times more expensive than that one.這輛車比那本恰好貴5倍。
③ A +be+倍數+the+計量名詞+of B
The new library is four times the size of the previous one.新的圖書館是以前的四倍大。
④The+計量名詞+of A +be+倍數+that of B
The size of the new square is four times that of the previous one.新廣場為以前的四倍大。
二、解法指導
[例1](2007年廣東)We drank together and talked______ (merry)till far into the night.
解析:此題考查形容詞和副詞的用法,這里修飾謂語動詞talked,作狀語,要用副詞,故填merrily。
[例2](2008年廣東) He was very tired after doing this for a whole day,but he felt very happy since the crop did “grow”______ (high).
解析:指的是比他“pluck up a few inches之前”長得高了一點,故填higher。
[例3](2010年廣東)“You tasted the water. I tasted the gift. The water was simply the container for an act of kindness and love. Nothing could be _______ (sweet).”
解答:否定詞nothing與比較級連用表示最高級的概念,故填sweeter。句意是:“沒有什么東西比這個更甜了”,也就是說 “這是世界上最甜的水”。

(一)
Once,there lived two brothers in a lonely village. The
1 (old)brother was much 2 (wise)than the younger. One day,there was a big hill on the road, which was as 3 (heavy)as 10 tons, blocking their way. How could they move it to the side of the road since there were no modern machines at that time? The elder brother chose to give in because it was too 4 (easy) for him and found another way which were about 20 kilometers way. The other insisted that it would be 5 (possible) solved if he removed it. The older one laughed at him, saying that he was 6 (stupid) than persistent. 7 (final),his move moved others,who helped him solve the problem together. This story reminds us that as long as we are 8 (hope)and keep on doing it,hope will not give us up.
(二)
I don’t think it 1 (difficulty)to learn English well, because as long as you work hard,you can learn it well. I believe that the 2 (hard)you work at your study, 3 (well) you can learn it. For example, Li Ping,a friend of mine, is the 4 ( hardworking) student in our class,and he gets 5 (high) marks than any other student in our class in every English test. Led by him,all the students in our class are studying English 6 (越來越努力). As a result,in the last English test, our class was the 7 (good)of the two key classes in our school,and the number of students who got the excellent marks is 8 (兩倍大)that of the other. Therefore,all of us should study hard no matter what we learn.
