比较级的用法(三)最佳答案形容词比较级的形式 一、形容词比较级和最高级的构成 形容词的比较级和最高级变化形式规则如下 构 成 法 原 级 比 较 级 最 高 级 一般单音节词末尾加er 和 est strong stronger strongest 单音节词如果以e结尾，只加r 和st strange stranger strangest 闭音节单音节词如末尾只有 一个辅音字母， 须先双写这个辅音字母，再加er和est sad big hot sadder bigger hotter saddest biggest hottest 少数以y,er(或ure),ow,ble结尾的双音节词， 末尾加er和est(以y结尾的词，如y前是辅音字母， 把y变成i，再加er和est，以e结尾的词仍 只加r和st) angry clever narrow noble angrier cleverer narrower nobler angrest cleverest narrowest noblest 其他双音节和多音节词都在前面加单词more和most different more different most different 1) The most high A mountain in B the world is Mount Everest， which is situated C in Nepal and is twentynine thousand one hundred and fourty one feet high D . 2) This house is spaciouser A than that B white C one I bought in Rapid City， South Dakota D last year. 3) Research in the social A sciences often proves difficulter B than similar C work in the physical D sciences. 二、形容词比较级或最高级的特殊形式： 1. 三个或三个以上音节的形容词只能加more和most 只能说 more beautiful而不能说beautifuller; 只能说the most beautiful而不能说beautifullest。 但是，以形容前缀un结尾的三音节形容词不适合上述情况，如unhappy,untidy，我们可以说：unhappierunhappiest, untidieruntidiest 2. 由ING分词和ED分词演变过来的形容词(包括不规则动词如knowknown)只能加more或most来表示它们的比较级和最高级 more(most) striking, more(most) interesting, more(most) wounded, more(most)worn等。 4) The drawings A of the old masters B are among the treasuredest C works in museums D . 3. 英语里有些形容词由于其词义而不可能有比较级形式 absolute fatal main right universal chief final naked simulta- utter entire foremost perfect neous vital eternal inevitable possible sufficient whole excellent infinite primary supreme wooden 三、不规则形容词的比较级和最高级形式 good well better best bad ill worse worst many much more most little few less least far farther farthest further furthest 5) African elephants are larger， fiercer， and difficulter A to tame B than C Asian elephants D . 6) Sarah Hale became A one of the famousest B magazine C editors in the United States during D the 1800s. 7) Of all A the Native American tribes B ， the Shawnee Indians were C a most D transient. 四、例题解析 1) A错。应将“most high”改为highest。这是在考形容词比较级的构成形式。 2) A错。改为more spacious。 3) B错。 改为more difficult。 4) C错。 treasured 在本句中是ED分词(动词treasure ed)作形容词使用，是“宝贵的、珍贵的”意思，修饰名词 works(作品)，其最高级形式应用 the most treasured。 5) A错，改为more difficult。 6) B错。改为“the most famous”，因为famous(著名的)是双音节，其最高级变化应在前面加“the most”。 7) D错。应改为“the most”，因为此处表示的是最高级，“the most transient”意为“(延续时间)最短暂的”。 第二节 副词比较级和最高级的形式 副词比较级和最高级的变化形式与形容词基本上一样 一般 副词 hardharder hardest fastfaster fastest latelater latest earlyearlier earliest 特殊 副词 well better best much more most badly worse worst little less least 但是，开放类副词即以后缀ly结尾的副词不能像形容词那样加er或est，如 quickly more quickly most quickly quietly more quietly most quietly 注： early中的ly不是后缀，故可以把y变i再加er和est 形容词与副词比较级的基本用法 一、原级比较的基本用法 1. 原级比较由“as形容词或副词(或再加名词或短语)as ”构成“原级相同”比较句，表示两者比较；其否定式，即“程度不及”比较句型为“not so(as) 形容词或副词as”，而且asas结构前可用just, almost, nearly, quite等表示程度的词修饰 1) Walking briskly for thirty minutes will burn as many calories as .

A such B more C as D than 5) I should say Henry is not much a writer as a reporter.
