第六节 形容词和副词(二)
4 f* W$ c& Y; h% p/ V 一、原级比较的基本用法
: Z3 |* P/ M2 T) j4 g6 R 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as…as结构前可用just, almost, nearly, quite等表示程度的词修饰/ y ]# t1 j3 w) D, O6 Q$ h
2. “as (so)+名词+as+名词”进行名词比较,这时一般情况下有一个表示原级的比较词,但如果第一名词前出现了形容词修饰该词或出现副词修饰谓语,应当用so而不用as9 J) U: ~! u6 \3 j6 Y
二、比较级
. y0 r8 ?* C/ ?1 v& _$ ? 1. 比较级由“形容词(副词)比较级+than+…,”构成表示在两者中间一方比另一方“更加…”。连词than后可接句子,也可接名词、代词、名词短语、介词短语、动词、动词不定式、ING结构和ED结构,有时也可省去than.
; q* C& \9 W) g7 M k% E 2. 注意than前后两项相比较的人或事物要一致
% Q+ m; [! D& R8 p9 `7 {! F 三、最高级
0 G- e8 ?& u$ A& _& Y 1. 最高级用于三者以上比较,形容词的结构形式是“定冠词+形容词最高级+名词+表示范围的短语或从句”(如all, of all, of the tree, in the world, that has ever taken place等)
, Q" R0 H8 G* C5 n0 F$ i7 z 2. 副词的最高级与形容词最高级的区别在于最高级前没有定冠词the) Y1 K$ b9 x7 l: C6 N+ Z' P2 R
四、同步练习* g1 y" D0 l6 {" R

解析:B错。改为 as ,和前面的as和形容词原形curious 一起构成同程度比较。- s% S5 {2 F5 `2 l6 |4 V' x

4) Thomas Jefferson's achievements as an architect rival his contributions a politician.+ L* i8 O' I' r
[A] such [B] more [C] as [D] than
. k3 M. L8 h& }$ G 解析:C对。动词rival(胜过、匹敌)前后是两个相比较的成分achievements(成果)和 contributions(贡献),由于前面的名词后出现了短语 as an architect,故空白处也应用as,使前后对比成分一致。
! E" `- ?( Z9 i7 v# J8 y 5) I should say Henry is not much a writer as a reporter.# ~5 o6 ^; N& U/ P: n5 ]( _; ]; c

6) Natural mica(云母) of [A] a superior [B] quality is cheapest [C] to obtain than synthetic [D] mica." E8 \; ^4 \4 P6 K) [/ z
解析:C错。应改为比较级cheaper.比较级后并不一定跟接连词than,有时在其间有名词或名词短语(被形容词所修饰),介词短语,不定式或其他成分隔开。
' r& T2 A5 h% `" N! F- f1 a 7) She is older than .3 H+ b2 G; Q/ s R4 o

, q1 x G, R1 [% z1 ? [C] all girls in the group [D] you and me as well as the group' E, |3 S( ?8 n6 R' `- j
解析:A为正确答案。“She”作为单个不能跟全组比(C和D不对),也不能跟全组所有相比,因为“她”也是其中一员,自然“她”不能跟自己相比。这里“She”比较的是“这组中的任何一个”,所以A对。- ^! r! P6 V. z3 x( E
8) Josephine McCrackin joined [A] the “Santa Cruz Sentinel” in 1905 and, until her death fifteen years late [B] , remained [C] active in journalistic [D] work.
5 N+ V; o4 b* Y: t; U1 L 解析:B错。应改为比较级later,因此处实为与1905年相比晚15年,故应使用比较级。

13) Of all economic [A] problems, inflation continues to be [B] a [C] most significant in its daily impact on [D] people and business.' V1 v( C B8 ?# I2 X4 i/ {
解析:C错。改为the, significant是多音节形容词,在此处应用最高级形式(在前面加 the most),注意句中的“of all… ”。, n! S9 j1 m/ c9 I" M3 T( B
14) ,the most familiar to general public is the criminal jurisdiction.; W: z. ^6 i* P) l" `" ]/ O' F
[A] All the activities [B] The activities9 S+ e2 I, i+ M. E+ T' h
[C] Of all the activities [D] It is the activities0 L8 \' w j r4 D" [% q* ~/ t
解析:C为正确答案。本句空白处缺状语,A和B全为名词短语,不符合条件;D为句子,和空白后面的句子没有任何联系,故亦应排除。只有C正确,和后面的最高级the most familiar前后呼应。$ Y% p4 z% f% u& F( o+ t5 s9 v$ i
