形容词比较级知识详解
一.形容词比较级的变化
1. 规则变化
(1)在形容词后直接加-er。如:tall-----taller,short------shorter等。
(2)以不发音的字母e结尾的只需在末尾加-r。如:nice------nicer,large-------larger等。
(3)以“辅音字母+y”结尾的形容词,要先把y变成i,然后再加-er。
如:heavy------heavier,happy------happier等。
(4)若以重读闭音节结尾且只有一个辅音字母,先双写这个辅音字母,然后再加-er。
如:fat------fatter,big---bigger, thin---thinner,hot------hotter, wet---wetter, sad---sadder,red---redder等。
(5)多音节和部分双音节的形容词,可不是在u末尾变化,而是在前面加more。
如:careful-----more careful,rious-------more rious, fun---more fun等。
2. 不规则变化
good /well------better, bad /badly-------wor, many /much-------more,little------less
二.形容词比较级的用法
在描述单个的某人或某物所具有的特征时,需要用形容词原级形式,当把两者进行比较时,就用比较级,常见的表示这类用法的句型有:
1.“A+be+比较级+than+B”表示“A比B更…”。如:
This book is funnier than that one. 这本书比那本书更有趣。
2.“Which /Who()+be+比较级, A or B?”意思是“A和B,哪个更…….”。如:
Which is bigger, the sun or the earth? 太阳和地球,哪个更大?
Who bag is heavier, yours or mine? 谁的包重些,你的还是我的?
3.“A+be+the+比较级+of the two(……)”意思是“A是两者中较…….的一个。”这时前面一定要加the,表示特指。如:
Lily is the taller of the twins. 莉莉是双胞胎中个子较高的那个。
4. “A+be+less+原级+than+B”表示“A比B更不…”。如:
This book is not funny. But that book is less funny. 这本书不有趣,那本书更不有趣。
三.常与比较级连用的词
1. 前面可以加上a little,a lot,much,even,still等程度副词作修饰语。如:
She is much more careful than her brother. 她比她哥哥细心多了。
2. 前面还可以加表示数量、倍数的修饰语。如:
My brother is two years older than I. 我哥哥比我大两岁。
This room is twice bigger than that one. 这个房间比那个房间大两倍。
四.使用比较级应注意的问题
1. 避免比较对象的不相同。如:
[误]My schoolbag is newer than you.
[正]My schoolbag is newer than yours.
2. 避免与自身相比。如:
[误]Shanghai is bigger than all the cities in China.
[正]Shanghai is bigger than all the other cities in China.
3. 避免与原级混淆。如:
Tom is as hard-working as Jim.
Tom is very\really\quite\pretty talented.
