比較級和最高級的用法
1. 兩者相比(甲=乙),用“as+原級+as”表示
Tom is as tall as Mike.
2. 兩者相比(甲〈 乙),用“not as(so) +原級+as”或“less than”表示
I didn’t do my homework so(as) carefully as you.
The picture is less attractive than that one.
3. 兩者相比(甲〉乙),用“比較級+than”表示
Our city is more beautiful than any other city in our country.
注意:1) 為了避免重復(fù),在從句中常用one, that, those等詞來代替前面提過的名詞。
The weather here is warmer than that of Shanghai.
The radios made in our factory are better than those in your factory.
2) 比較等級應(yīng)注意避免和包括自己的對象比。
比較級+than+
any other + 單數(shù)名詞
all the other + 復(fù)數(shù)名詞
anyone else
any of the other + 復(fù)數(shù)名詞
3 )如果形容詞作定語修飾一個單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞,一般將不定冠詞a/an放在形容詞之后。
Our neighbour has _____ ours.
A. as a big house as
B. as big a house as
C. the same big house as
D. house the same big as
4 )比較級前一般不用冠詞,但若表示“兩者中較……時”。比較級前要加定冠詞。若比較級后有名詞,常在比較級前加不定冠詞,表示泛指。
E.g. 他是兩者中較高的一個
He is the taller of the two.
她唱得真動聽!我可從未聽過比這更好的嗓音了。
How beautifully she sings! I have never heard a better voice.
4. 三者或三者以上相比,表示最高級時,用“the +最高級”的結(jié)構(gòu)表示,這種句式一般常有表示比較范圍的介詞短語。
Zhang Hua is the tallest of the three.
He works (the) hardest in his class.
That was the least exciting football game I’ve ever watched.
This hotel is the most comfortable I’ve ever stayed.
注意:當最高級的前面無限定詞the或有不定冠詞a/an時,僅表示“很……,非常……”
Monday is my busiest day.
星期一是我很忙的一天。
Qingdao is a most (very) beautiful coastal city.
青島是一個非常美麗的海濱城市。
