形容词和副词
一、形容词
定义:形容词是用来修饰名词或代词,表示人或事物的性质、状态,和特征的程度好坏,与否的词。
(一)、形容词可分为两大类:描绘形容词和限定形容词。描绘形容词是描写人或物的颜色、尺寸、形状、性质、状态等的形容词。限定形容词用于限定被修饰词的数量、距离、所有关系等。除了the和tho外,形容词的单数与复数形式相同。
描绘形容词 Beautiful, large, red, interesting, colourful important | 限 定 形 容 词 基数词 (one,two) 序数词 (first,cond) 物主代词 (my,your) 指示代词 (this,that,the) 数量词 (few,many) 冠 词 (a, an, the) |
| |
(二)、形容词的位置
1)形容词一般作定语,置于被修饰语之前,但当几个形容词修饰同一名词时,其排列顺序一般如下:
形容词型代/冠词→ | 数量词→ | 描 绘 形 容词 |
all both | the,a(n) this,that | first | one | 性 质 | 尺寸 形状 | 新旧 温度 | 颜 色 | 国 籍 | 材 料、用途 |
good | large | cold | red | Chine工银e | iron |
such | Your,some, many | cond | two | Fine | small | 看着你的背影hot | blue | English | stone |
| | | | | | | | | |
Example: that strong young Chine swimmer
2)形容词前有as, so, no, too, how等词时,不定冠词应置于形容词之后。
She is too kind a girl to refu.
3)在下列情况下,修饰语应置于被修饰的名词后:
(1)名词之后的数量词+名词+old, long, wide等。
a boy six years old, a street two kilometers long
(2)something, anything, everyone, anybody…+形容词。
There’s nothing wrong with the electric cooker.
(4)作定语用的分词或形容词短语
The judge has talked to all the people involved.
(5)两个形容词由and或or并列时
All people,rich or poor,are equal.
4)“数词+名词”构成的形容词中名词用单数,放于被修饰词之前:
(1)数词+名词,如 a two-week tour, a ten-page report等。
(2)数词+名词+形容词,如 a ven-year-old boy等。
注:名词(无冠词)+基数词=the+序数词+名词,如Unite 6=the Sixth Unite
(4)“数量词+复数名词”作主语,虽然是复数形式,但仍然用单数动词,作为一个单位来表示。如果强调个别数,则须用复数动词。
Ten years is quite a long time to him.
Two months have pasd since I last heard from my parents.
5)形容词也可作表语,放于系动词之后。
6)形容词可以放于复合结构中宾语之后,作宾语补足语。
7)the+形容词,可以表示一类人或一类物。
二、副词
定 义:副词是一种用来修饰动词,形容词,全句的词,说明时间,地点,程度,方式等概念。
(一)分 类:
1)时间和频度副词:
now,then,often,always,usually,early,today, lately, next,last,already,generally,frequently, ldom,ever,never,yet,soon,too, immediately, hardly,finally,shortly, before, ago,sometimes, yesterday.
2)地点副词:
here, there, everywhere, anywhere, in, out, inside, outside, above, below, down, back, forward, home, upstairs, downstairs, across, along, round , around, near, off, past, up, away, on.
3)方式副词:
carefully, properly, anxiously, suddenly, normally, fast, well, calmly, politely, proudly, softly, warmly
4)程度副词:
much,little, very,rather,so,too,still, quite, perfectly, enough, extremely, entirely,almost, slightly.
5)疑问副词:
how, when, where, why.
6)关系副词:
when, where, why.
7)连接副词:
how, when, where, why, whether
(二)、副词的构成如下:
1)本身就是副词,如very, now, there, quite等.
2)有形容词后缀如-ly, 如happily, carefully等。
3)有些副词与形容词同行,如early, high, long, fast, hard等。
注意:有些-ly结尾的词不是副词而是形容词,如manly, friendly, queenly等。
(三)、副词的位置
1)修饰形容词和副词时,须放在被修饰词之前,如
The scenery around here is very beautiful.
2)always, never, often, sometimes, ususlly等表示频率的副词在一般动词前,be动词后,有助动词时,在助动词和动词之间。
He usually gets up early, but he got up late today.
I have never met him and I hope I will never meet him.
3)有两个以上不同种类的副词作修饰语时,其顺序为地点(小地点+大地点)→状态→次数→时间(单位小的时间+单位大的时间)。
They arrived in Paris safely the other day.
4)ldom, rarely, never等具有否定意义的频率副词置于句首时,助动词或be动词须放在主语的前面(也叫倒装句),如
Never did I hear such a funny story=I never heard such a funny story.
(四)、几个特殊副词的用法
1)enough须置于所修饰的形容词和副词之后;too须置于所修饰的形容词和副词之前.
She speaks English well enough to be an interpreter.
It,s too hot a day to work.
会场布置 但enough修饰名词时须置于名词之前.
Have you got enough money for this microwave oven?
2)too…(for…)+不定式(to),作“太…而不能”解;enough+不定式,意思是“足够可
以”,这一结构可转换成so…that结构。
The boy was still too young to go to school.
→He was so young that he could not go to school.
The man is rich enough to buy a Roll-Royce.
→He is so rich that he can buy a Roll-Royce.
3)already用于肯定句,作“已经”解;yet用于否定句,作“还”解,用于疑问句作“已经”解,still作“仍然”解。
I have already en film.
Have you en the film yet?
I still prefer tea to coffee.
4)随着only和also在句中位置的改变,句意和语气也会改变。
Only Mr. Li came to e me today.
Mr. Li came to e only me today.
Mr. Li came to e me only today.
