一、原级比较的基本用法/ Z; @: B% A5 P* P: \$ e
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
& ~6 \8 n ]& d- _9 l, @ k, K, y 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as
# F! N4 d: l& C 二、比较级
2 N0 m2 M1 G, q+ } 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.- ~2 a; _5 [, z! I/ T
2. 注意than前后两项相比较的人或事物要一致2 D4 @ n( j: I3 f; G
三、最高级
# O5 N) a% i- L( { @- H. j 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)* s) h5 |9 S9 l9 m
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

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。- J) M9 d; P9 |% {

[A] such [B] more [C] as [D] than9 N) ` z$ N% Z7 Z1 K9 F9 s3 J
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。

2 g0 s& b- Q+ `" _ 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。* U6 ~: P6 U. z7 W9 g0 {# c

[C] all girls in the group [D] you and me as well as the group
; ~+ G c9 @9 I8 d+ y 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。
( o. L& R* T _, t 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.
! x* j- M, d- s+ i& B+ y 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。. ^- k$ Y: |& X! }0 S0 D! A8 G

13) Of all economic [A] problems, inflation continues to be [B] a [C] most significant in its daily impact on [D] people and business.
% k" {/ ^% ~8 z, s! ?+ S% V 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… ”。3 s- P, v3 n5 u7 ]9 N7 ` d% Z
14) ,the most familiar to general public is the criminal jurisdiction.3 S+ R, f5 y9 y& V
[A] All the activities [B] The activities, v( _& V8 o$ a
[C] Of all the activities [D] It is the activities5 z2 v/ n* g2 T- U! P9 l0 M0 J2 [2 d
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。
