4.下列动词既是实义动词又是系动词,注意用做系动词时,要求形容词做表语:
remain keep become, get, grow, go, come, turn, stay, stand, run, prove, seem, appear, look.
如:All those left undone may sound great in theory, but even the truest believer has great difficulty when it comes to specifics.
二。形容词与副词的比较级与最高级
1. 考比较级时,考生应把握:
1)形容词和副词比较级的形式是否和比较连词对应出现,即是否符合原级比较及比较级的结构。如:
Do you enjoy listening to records? I find records are often ________ , or better than an actual performance.
[A]as good as [B]as good [C]good [D]good as
在这里as good as 比较连词与better than比较连词同时出现时候,不能省略任何一个介词。答案为A
On the whole, ambitious students are more likely to succeed in their studies than are those with little ambition.
2)比较的成分是否属于同类事物或同类概念,既是说比较要具有可比性。如:
The number of registered participants in this year's marathon was half ________ .
[A] of last year's [B]those of last year's
[C]of those of last year [D] that of last year's
(前后相比的应该是今年和去年注册参加的人数“the number of”故代替它的应该是单数指示代词“that”,而不能选择B,those是指代participants,不是同类对比,答案为D.
Young readers, more often than not, find the novels of dickens far more exciting than Thackeray's.
3)比较级与倍数词关系及其位置
原级结构中可插入表达倍数的词,表示为“为…。若干倍”,当与有表示倍数比较的词在一起时候等,他们的位置是,倍数词+as…as…,或倍数词+more…than…,但again一般放在原级词之后,即 “as+原级+again+as”。如:
Smoking is so harmful to personal health that it kills ________ people each year than automobile accidents.
[A] seven more times [B] seven times more
[C] over seven times [D] seven times
(答案为B) |
