比拟级[英文]comparative degree一般来说,中文意思是“……的〞的词是形容词,而中文意思是“……地〞的词是副词。
一、形容词概念:形容是用来修饰物体的形状,大小,长度,属性,特点等,位于名词的前面。
如:1.He is a hard-working student.(努力的→特点)2.Our English teacher has long hair.〔长的→长度〕
3.The elephants are very big, and the mice are very small.〔大的、小的→大小〕
二、形容词、副词比拟级和最高级的意义:英语中的形容词和副词,在句子里表示“比拟……〞、“最……〞时,要用特别的形式,即:比拟级和最高级。原来的形式称原级。如: long longer longest
如:(原级) 1.The black pen is very long. 黑色的钢笔很长。
(比拟级) 2.The blue pen is longer than the black one. 蓝色的钢笔比黑色的长。
(最高级) 3.The red pen is the longest of the three. 红色的钢笔是三支中最长的。
三、注意:〔原级〕very, too+形副原级+to…; so(as)+形副原级+as….;
〔形容词、副词比拟级的用法 〕
1.形容词或副词比拟级表示两个或两局部比拟,一般 + than;前后的比拟对象必须是同一范畴,即同类事物之间的比拟。eg:You are taller than I am./ You are taller than me.
③ very, quite一般只能修饰原级,不能修饰比拟级。
2.没有than 但蕴含着比拟意义①Which is larger, Canada or Australia?②This shirt is big, could you give me a smaller one? ③She is the taller of the two sisters
3. 可修饰比拟级的词
1〕a bit, a little, rather, much, far, by far, many, a lot, lots, a great deal, any, still, even等
much,表示程度程度“强得多〞。 a little,表示强一点;two yesrs elder 年龄前一般加数字
如:A watermelon is much bigger than an apple.
2〕以上词(除by far)外,必须置于比拟级形容词或副词的前面。
4. “become+比拟级+ and +比拟级〞或“more and more +原级(多音节词)〞表示“越来越……〞.
eg: It is getting cooler and cooler.(天气越来越凉爽。)
The wind became more and more heavily.(风变得越来越大。)
5. B. “the +比拟级……, the+比拟级〞,表示“越……越……〞。
eg:The more money you make, the more you spend.(钱你赚得越多,花得越多。)
The sooner,the better. (越快越好。)
6. 表示倍数的比拟级用法:
a〕. A is …times the size /height/length/width of B.
eg:The new building is three times the height of the old one.这座新楼比那座旧楼高三倍。(新楼是旧楼的四倍高)
b〕. A is …times as big /high/long/wide/large as B.
eg:Asia is four times as large as Europe. 亚洲是欧洲的四倍大。(亚洲比欧洲大三倍)
c. A is…times larger /higher/longer/wider than B.
eg:Our school is twice bigger than yours.(我们学校比你们学校大两倍。)
7.某个地方的食物和另外一个地方的事物比拟,后者省略代词单数用that,复数用those.
eg: ①the people in China are more than those in England.
②The pen on the desk is much newer than that in the pencil-case.
8.两者之间的比拟,后者用the other +名词复数, any other+名词单数,
eg:①Shanghai is cleaner than any other city in China.
②Shanghai is cleaner than the other cities in China.
〔形容词、副词的最高级的用法〕
1.形、副词最高级主要表示三者或三者以上人或事物的比拟,表示“最……〞的意思。句子中有表示范围的词或短语。如:of the three, in our class等等。 如: He is the tallest in our class. 他在我们班里是最高的。
2.形容词最高级前一定要有定冠词the,而副词最高级前那么不需要。形容词most前面没有the,不表示最高级的含义,只表示"非常"。 eg:It is a most important problem.=It is a very important problem.
3. very可修饰最高级,但位置与much不同。 eg: This is the very best. This is much the best.
4.序数词通常只修饰最高级。 eg: Africa is the second largest continent. 5. one of 后一般+最高级

2〕The experiment was____ easier than we had expected.
A. more B. much more C. much D. more much

C. much happiest time D. a much happier time
