副词在句中的位置
7 w0 t3 U! d2 A8 B 副词在句中的位置比较灵活,放在句首、句中、句尾都有可能,这是副词的优点,但同时给英语学习者带来了麻烦,往往难以抉择副词的位置,TOEFL出题者也借此大做文章,给考生制造障碍,在填空题、改错题中都涉及语序问题
1 T) X/ V) q( C' _$ m' A 几点参考规则:
3 i# H/ n, l( K6 x6 E, `! P 1. 多数副词放在修饰的动词之后,若动词有宾语则放在宾语之后,如: * ]8 F3 M2 I7 Y* d& A
She sings very well. R" l( e! ^7 x
I met your uncle(动词的宾语) just now.
$ G* ?1 z) ]. i: r+ |0 p) H I met just now your uncle (错)
' o/ j' x( U& ` 2. 副词修饰形容词、介词短语、副词时常放在被修饰成分之前,如:
$ f' L5 g9 H: O- I These two are only slightly different.
: W$ ^6 t3 [" o right after this, very smoothly 9 @9 K5 s E$ o! `) M7 z) o
当然,副词enough是一个例外,要放在修饰成分的后面,如:
, h7 H0 D2 E6 G8 {' S) g% u I am not good enough to do this job. (对) * h, Y! u! d) ]( K; d' J1 w
I am not enough good to do this job. (错)
$ H: }1 A' m/ s0 y 3. 表示频率的副词常放在实意动词之前,be动词之后,如: 0 L* Y" k, k* J, n
He often/ always/ rarely/seldom/never play(实意动词) tennis.
1 r0 S; j0 W5 U( N0 @& Q He is always here at 8’clock. (be动词之后) 5 N5 u* E$ X) N" E5 S4 N5 U
4. 部分副词的位置没有一定的规定,原则上接近被修饰词即可,如:
# j u: \4 i5 A1 p- s5 w# v" N only, even, still, perhaps, etc. - q* q6 i1 Z. @* M1 m
例题: : p& c; U" E- u; Q! l- v! t
(1)
6 ~. m+ z8 ?( ~) j, X0 n, q When rainbows appear, they are always in the part of the sky opposite directly the Sun. O. M5 G* e7 ~% `" A
应改为:directly opposite.
3 T- }; p% V, D3 k+ ]* w 解释:opposite 与the Sun 构成介宾短语, 修饰副词directly必须置于opposite之前
$ w9 P1 ~8 u6 k) {: u9 A9 ^ (2) # A$ V' L& t! a3 I' h
Amoebas are ---- small to be seen without a microscope. T& E+ _ B) x( m
(A) far too
2 U6 s7 l: a" \3 m+ k (B) far and 7 k+ U9 X$ O* p; G) s- Y
(C) so far / S' f2 C' H* G' v4 _
(D) as far as 2 @9 n% r3 N* ?$ r; d* D
答案:A
! O( h6 a& o. W z 解释:空格前是句子的主谓语,空格处需要small的修饰语,B, C, D都不能修饰形容词, 故选A, 由副词too修饰small,副词far用来加深程度 |
