形容词和副词的比较等级分为原级、比较级和最高级。比较级和最高级的构成一般是在形容词和副词后加-er和-est,多音节和一些双音节词前加more和most;形容词的最高级前面要加定冠词the。
1.同级比较时常常用as…as…以及not so (as)…as…和the same as。如:
I am not so good a player as you are.
2.可以修饰比较级的词有:much, a lot, even, far, a bit, a little, still, yet, by far, any, a great deal。
3.表示一方随另一方变化时用“the more…the more…”句型。如:
The harder you work, the more progress you will make.
4.用比较级来表达最高级的意思。如:
★直接使用比较级
How beautiful she sings! I’ve never heard a better voice.
= She has the best voice I’ve ever heard.
any other +n. (单)
★比较级+than + the other + n. (复)
any of the other +n. (复)
① He works harder than any other student.
② She goes to school earlier than the other girls.
③ China is larger than any of the other countries in Asia.
★比较级 + than + anything / anyone else
Tom cared more for money than for anything else.
★在比较句型中使用“no, never, nobody, nothing” + 比较级等词。
① I have never spent a more worrying day.
② Nobody can do the work better than he did.
5.表示“最高程度”的形容词没有最高级和比较级。如:favorite, excellent, extreme, perfect。
例如:
I’m 164cm tall. You are 183cm.You are _____ than me.
A. taller B. thinner C. stronger D. shorter
【答案】A。解析:考查形容词比较级。句意为“我身高164cm,你183cm,你比我高。”这里说的是身高的比较。B. thinner更瘦;C. stronger更强壮;D. shorter更矮。故选A。
