位置与功能
高考重点要求 1.掌握形容词、副词比较级、最高级的常用句型及用法 2.掌握形容词、副词的原级、比较级和最高级修饰语及倍数的比较表达。 3.注意多外形容词修饰同一名词的前后顺序。 4.分清常用同义与近义形容词在表达中的语义差别。 此项语法内容从1991年到达2001年间共出现45次(包括上海题),可见其重要。 形容词作用与位置 1.定语。 在名词前做定语,为最常见用法。请注意多个形容词(含其它起形容词作用的词)做前置定语的顺序。 "县官行令杀国才。"这一句就概述了形容词顺序问题。即: 限(冠词[物主代词、指示代词]数词等)观 (描绘) 形(大小、形状等) 龄 (年龄、新旧等)色(色彩)国(国籍、出处等)材(材料、功用等) an interesting English film a heavy black Chinese silk umbrella 做后置定语。修饰由不定代词no ,any, some ,every和one,thing等构成的复合词或形容词短语。 2.表语。一定要注意系动词的出现情况。这是一个高考热点问题。 常见系动词有:be 变化系词: become, get ,turn, grow, go 保持系词: keep ,remain, stay 感观系词: look, smell , taste, feel, sound,appear , seem ,prove etc. 3.形容词作状语,表状况、原因、结果等。这也是应注意的一点。 He went to bed , cold and hungry. 4.做宾补。 N:①某些以a 开始的形容词只做表语,不做定语。 afraid, alike, alone, asleep ,awake,alive ②某些表身体健康状况的形容词只能做表语,不做定语 well, ill faint ③某些以-ly 结尾的词是形容词而不是副词。 friendly, lively, lovely, lonely, likely, deadly, orderly 等。 ④复合形容词的形式问题。 an 800-meter-wide river an English-speaking country a middle-aged man 副词 位置 1)时间副词和地点副词一般放于句尾。如同时出现,则地点副词在前。 They went boating in Zhongshan Park yesterday. 2)表频率的时间副词是高考的热点 always, seldom, often, never, rarely, usually 等,通常放于行为动词之前,be词、情态动词和助动词之 后。 He is always telling lies,so I will never believe him. 3)程度副词一般放在被修饰词之前(但 enough除外) He is very young ,so he is not old enough to go to school. N:有些副词有两种形式,一个与形容词同形,一个以ly 结尾,但它们的含义是不同的。 closely-close nearly-near freely-free deeply-deep highly-high widely-wide 等。 以ly 结尾的词表较为抽象的含义,而与形容词同形的副词则表较为具体的概念。 He is highly praised for what he has done. (高度地) He can see a bird is flying high in the sky.(飞得高,具有可见性)
