1、第 4 讲 形容词 形容词的用法:形容词的用法: (一)概念:形容词修饰名词,说明事物或人的性质或特征,通常可将形容词分成性质形容 词和叙述形容词两类,其位置不一定都放在名词前面其位置不一定都放在名词前面。 1. 直接说明事物的性质或特征的形容词是性质形容词。 【难点】 (二)形容词的种类 1. 品质形容词:英语中大量形容词属于这一类,他们表示人或物的品质,如: The play was boring. 那出戏很枯燥乏味。 You have an honest face. 你有一张诚实的脸。 2. 颜色形容词有少数表示颜色的形容词,如: She had on a blue coat. 她穿了一
2、件蓝色的外套。 3. -ing 形容词:有大量现在分词正在或已经变为形容词,如: 4. ed 形容词:它们是由它们的过去分词变过来的,一般有被动意义,多数为品质形容 词,如: She looked tired. 5. 合成形容词: warm-hearted 热心的, heart-breaking 令人心碎的 (三)形容词的用法和在句中的位置 1、形容词在句中主要可用作: 1)定语: What a fine day! 2)表语: She looks happy. 3)宾语的补语(构成合成宾语) : Do you think it necessary? 你认为这有必要吗? 4)状语: He arr
3、ived home, hungry and tired. 他又饿又累的回到家里。 【重点】 2) 当形容词词组形容词词组相当于一个定语从句时, 或形容词用来修饰 somebody, something, anything, nothing 等的时候,便会出现后置形容词。如: The boy interested in music is my brother. 对音乐感兴趣的那个男孩是我弟弟。 Do you have anything interesting to tell us? 你有什么趣闻告诉我们吗? 三、形容词的比较等级:三、形容词的比较等级: (一)形容词的比较级和最高级的构成 1单音
4、节词和少数双音节词的比较级和最高级的构成 情况 构成方式 原级 比较级 最高级 一般情况 加-er 或-est new long newer longer newest longest 以 e 结尾的词 加-r 或-st fine late finer later finest latest 以“辅音+y” 结尾 的词 变y为i再加-er 或 -est early happy earlier happier earliest happiest 重读闭音节的词 末尾只有一个辅 音字母 先双写辅音字母, 再加-er 或-est hot thin fat hotter thinner fatter
5、hottest thinnest fattest 2 多音节词和部分双音节词在其前面加 more 或 most。如: 原级 比较级 最高级 useful more useful most useful difficult more difficult most difficult delicious more delicious most delicious 【重点】 3有几个形容词的比较级和最高级属于不规则变化。 原级 比较级 最高级 good/well better best bad/ill worse worst many/much more most little less least
6、 far farther farthest old older oldest (二) 形容词比较级的用法 1形容词的比较级可以单独使用: Be more careful next time. 下次小心点。 Which book is better? 哪本书更好? 2也可以和 than 连用,表示两者相比,than 后可以跟: a. 名词或代词: He is older than me / I . 他年龄比我大。 b. 动名词: Skiing is more exciting than skating. 滑雪比滑冰更刺激。 c. 从句: I was a better singer than he
7、 was. 我唱歌比他好。 (三) 形容词比较级的修饰语 1形容词比较级前可加 much, a lot, a bit, a little, slightly 之类表示程度的状语: Hes feeling much better today. 他感到今天好多了。 2也可在比较级前 any, no, some, even, still 这类词: Do you feel any better today? 你今天感觉好一点了吗? 3比较级前还可加其他表示数量的词: My sister is ten years younger than me. 我妹妹比我小十岁。 【难点】 (四)形容词比较级的特殊用
8、法 1和 more 有关的词组 : 1) the morethe more 越就越。例如: The harder you work,the greater progress youll make. 越努力,进步越大。 2) no more than 与一样。例如: The officials could see no more than the Emperor. 官员们看到的和皇帝一样多。 3) more than 超过,不只是。例如: There are more than two thousand people in the hall. 2和 less 有关的词组 1) less than

10、容词+ a +单数名词/; as + many much +名词。例如: This is as good an example as the other is. 这个例子和另外一个一样好。 I can carry as much paper as you can. 你能搬多少纸,我也能。 3) 表示倍数的词或其他程度副词做修饰语时,放在 as 的前面。例如: This room is twice as big as that one. 这房间的面积是那间的两倍。 Your room is the same size as mine. 你的房间和我的一样大。 (五) 形容词最高级用法 1the
11、+ 最高级 + 比较范围 1)形容词最高级前通常必须用定冠词 the,例如: The Sahara is the biggest desert in the world. 撒哈拉沙漠是世界上最大的沙漠。 说明说明 形容词 most 前面没有 the,不表示最高级的含义,只表示非常。例如: It is a most important problem. =It is a very important problem. 这是个很重要 的问题。 注意注意:使用最高级要注意将主语包括在比较范围内。 (错) Tom is the tallest of his three brothers. (对) To
12、m is the tallest of the three brothers. 2) 下列词可修饰最高级,by far, far, much, mostly, almost。例如: This hat is nearly / almost the biggest. 这帽子差不多是最大的了。 注意注意:序数词通常只修饰最高级。例如: Africa is the second largest continent.非洲是第二大洲。 3) 最高级的意义有时可以用比较级表示出来。例如: Mike is the most intelligent in his class. 或者: Mike is more
13、intelligent than any other students in his class. (六)形容词最高级的特殊用法 1. 形容词最高级可用作表语,这时定冠词 the 可以省略。 例句:I think her plan is best. 我认为她的计划最好。 2.形容词最高级还可和 at 构成许多短语作状语,如 at best, at least, at most 等。 例句:Ill be with you at latest by ten. 我最迟十点钟就来陪你。 1、 了解形容词,掌握形容词的作用 2、 形容词的同级。比较级和最高级的用法 1.
