在KET語(yǔ)法點(diǎn)07期中
我們學(xué)習(xí)到形容詞的比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)
PET不僅考查與KET中的相同考點(diǎn)
還更會(huì)深挖形容詞的其他知識(shí)點(diǎn)
⑴Gradable and non-gradable adjectives
Most adjectives are gradable.This means we can make them stronger or weaker by using words like very.We cannot use words like completely or absolutely with these adjectives.
例如:
(×)I'm completely cold.
(√)I'm very cold.
(√)Our English exam was fairly difficult.
(√)Harry's new car is quite big,isn't it?
(√)Ben was pretty tired after a long day's work.
(等級(jí)形容詞可以接受very等詞語(yǔ)的修飾。但不能用completely或absolutely等詞語(yǔ)去修飾等級(jí)形容詞。)
Non-gradable or extreme adjectives are adjectives which we cannot make stronger or weaker by using words like very.We can use these words with non-gradable adjectives: completely,absolutely,totally, really.
例如:
(×)I'm very freezing.
(√)I'm absolutely freezing.
(√)It was absolutely impossible to pass our English exam.
(√)Harry's new car is really enormous,isn't it?
(√)Ben was totally exhausted after a long day's work.
⑵Adjectives with -ed and -ing endings
Many English adjectives which end in -ing or -ed are formed from verbs.
verbadjectives relaxrelaxed/relaxingsurprisesurprised/surprising
Adjectives which end in -ed tell us how a person feels.
例句:I’m going to bed because I'm tired.
Adjectives which end in -ing decribe the effect of something.
例句:I'm going to bed. I've had a tiring day at work.
⑶可修飾等級(jí)形容詞的詞語(yǔ)
a bit,a little, slightly,much,far,a lot
We can use these words with comparative adjectives.
We use a bit,a little, slightly, not much or not a lot to describe a small difference:
例句:My brother is a little younger than me.
I'm a bit older than him.
We use much,a lot or far to describe a large different:
例句:I'm much fitter than my brother,but he's a lot faster than me.
He's much more polite than his cousin.
(not) as···as
We use as+adjective/adverb +as to say that two things are the same.例句:Hannah is as tall as Jess. Today is as warm as yesterday.
We use not as+adjective/adverb +as to say that one thing is less than another.例句:My brother isn't as fit as me.=I am fitter than my brother. I'm not as fast as my brother.=My brother is faster than me.
