形容词比较级

1、 形容词比较级在这一课里, 我们要学习形容词比较级, 像是: 比较高, 比较好 等等. 现在我们先听一段对话, 内容是说亨利跟他表妹苏珊在电话里话家常. 我请两 位英文老师用正常速度念这段对话, 请你注意听英文老师的发音和语调. M: Hello, Susan. How is everything in New York? F: Never better, Henry. How are you? How is the family? M: Everyones fine. But actually, Im feeling a little tired these days. F: Youre g

2、etting older, Henry, and you are heavier than you used to be. M: Everyone gets older. But you look younger than ever. Whats your secret? F: There is no secret. I get more exercise than you. And I am careful about my diet. You should too. M: You are right. When the weather is warmer, Ill do it. F: No

3、, Henry. You should start now. M: Okey. I will start today. Thank you for the advice. 现在我们把整段对话再听一遍. 可是英文老师念得比较慢, 你注意听, 看看能懂 多少. M: Hello, Susan. How is everything in New York? F: Never better, Henry. How are you? How is the family? M: Everyones fine. But actually, Im feeling a little tired these da

4、ys. F: Youre getting older, Henry, and you are heavier than you used to be. M: Everyone gets older. But you look younger than ever. Whats your secret? F: There is no secret. I get more exercise than you. And I am careful about my diet. You should too. M: You are right. When the weather is warmer, Il

5、l do it. F: No, Henry. You should start now. M: Okey. I will start today. Thank you for the advice. 在刚才那段对话里有不少比较级用法, 现在我挑出几个例子, 请英文老师用慢 速度再念一遍给你听: F: Never better. F: Youre getting older. F: You are heavier than you used to be. M: Everyone gets older. M: You look younger than ever. M: When the weat

6、her is warmer, Ill do it.二.形容词比较级 听了刚才那段对话, 也许你已经注意到在英文里形容词比较级就是在一般短的 形容词后面加上 e-r, 比方 高 是 tall, t-a-l-l, tall, 比较高 就是 taller, t-a-l-l-e-r, taller. 下面我们给你举一些例子比较亨利和苏珊两个人谁老,谁年轻,谁胖,谁瘦, 谁高, 谁矮等等. 每个句子我们念两遍, 请你听一遍, 跟着老师重复一遍. M: Henry is older; Susan is younger. F: Henry is older; Susan is younger. M: Hen

7、ry is fatter; Susan is thinner. F: Henry is fatter; Susan is thinner. M: Henry is taller; Susan is shorter. F: Henry is taller; Susan is shorter. M: Henry is weaker; Susan is stronger. F: Henry is weaker; Susan is stronger. 如果把 亨利比较老; 苏珊比较年轻 这句话简化为 亨利比苏珊老, 在英文里 就必须用 than, t-h-a-n, than 这个字; 整句话就是 He

8、nry is older than Susan. 下面 我们来作换字练习, 多学学这个句型. 首先老师念一个句子, 然后老师给你一个 新的比较级形容词,请你把形容词代换到原来的句子里. 每作完一句, 老师会念 出正确作法, 你自己比较一下看作对了没有. 现在我们开始. M: Henry is older than Susan. M: fatter F: Henry is fatter than Susan. M: weaker F: Henry is weaker than Susan. M: heavier F: Henry is heavier than Susan. M: busier

9、F: Henry is busier than Susan. 刚才那些句子都是以亨利为主词, 下面这些句子是以苏珊为主词; 还是把她和 亨利作个比较, 比方 苏珊比亨利年轻 等等. 还是请你跟刚才一样作代换练习. M: Susan is younger than Henry. M: thinner F: Susan is thinner than Henry. M: shorter F: Susan is shorter than Henry. M: stronger F: Susan is stronger than Henry. M: healthier F: Susan is healt

10、hier than Henry. 现在我们再来学习形容词比较级. 首先由老师提出一个问句, 接着他又提出一 个词组作主词, 请学生用这个主词来回答问题, 然后老师又提出一个词组作受 词, 请学生用 than 这个字把受词用进句子里. 首先我给你举一个例子. M: Which table is longer? M: this table F: This table is longer. M: that one F: This table is longer than that one. 好, 现在我们开始作练习. 请你在学生作练习的时候也跟着作. M: Which table is longer

11、? M: this table F: This table is longer. M: that one F: This table is longer than that one. M: Which dress is shorter? M: the blue dress F: The blue dress is shorter.

M: the train F: The train is slower. M: the airplane F: The train is slower than the airplane.三.不规则形容词比较级 除了变化规则的形容词比较级之外, 在英文

15、里有很少数几个形容词比较级的变 化是不规则的. 比方 好 good, g-o-o-d, good 变成 better, b-e-t-t-e-r, better; 坏 bad, b-a-d bad 变成 worse, w-o-r-s-e, worse. 现在我们来作换字练习. 首先学学 better 的用法. 由老师念一个句子, 然后老师 给你一个新名词, 请你代换到原来的句子里. 比方老师说: This student is good, but that student is better. 接着老师给你一个名词 teacher 请你作代换练习, 正确 答案应该是 This teacher i

16、s good, but that teacher is better. 现在我们开始作练习. 每作完一句, 就请你听正确答案. M: This student is good, but that student is better. M: teacher F: This teacher is good, but that teacher is better.

21、nry is a little fatter than he wants to be. He wants to lose some weight. So he is on a diet. He tries not to eat too much and he eats very little sugar because it will make him fat.
