几组易混的形容词与副词的比较一、how long, how soon, how often的比较how long是问某个动作或状态延续了多久，用“(for+)时间段”来回答； how soon是问某个动词要过多久之后才发生或结束，用“in+时间段”来回答；how often是问某个动作每隔多久发生一次，或者一个单位时间里发生次数的多少，用“次数(如once, twice)＋单位时间(如a day, a month)”或usually, sometimes等来回答。如：How ________ can you finish the drawing? (全国卷)A. often B. soon C. long D. rapid【分析】答案选B。句意是：过多久以后你才能画完？二、no longer / more, not any…longer / more的比较表示时间上的“不再”，no more通常放在句末，且一般只与非延续性动词go, come, see, return等连用，一般不用于系表结构中；no longer(一般位于行为动词之前或者be动词、情态动词、助动词之后)和更口语化的not…any longer / more既可与延续性动词连用也可与非延续性动词连用。如：1. —Will you give this message to Mr White, please? —Sorry, I can’t. He ________. (全国卷)A. doesn’t any more work hereB. doesn’t any longer her workC. doesn’t work any more hereD. doesn’t work here any longer【分析】答案选D。any longer / more要位于句末。2. —Excuse me, is this Mr Brown’s office?—I’m sorry, but Mr Brown ________ works here. He left about three months ago. (全国卷)A. not now B. no more C. not stillD. no longer【分析】答案选D。在行为动词前要用no longer。注：①涉及到数量时用no more。如：There is no more bread on the plate. (盘子里没有面包了。)　②no more还可表示“也不”，相当于neither或nor。如：He couldn’t lift the table and no more could I. 他拿不动那张桌子，我也拿不动。三、fairly, quite, rather, pretty的比较rather一般表示不合意，有时也可表示合意的；fairly表示令人满意的；pretty与very意思接近，可表示合意或不合意。值得注意的是：1. 与too或比较级连用只能用rather，如rather colder(有点冷), rather too large(稍大一点)，但quite better(好多了)是个例外；2. quite和rather可位于冠词前，其它两个则不能；3. 表示“完全，十分(=completely)”时要用quite。如quite agree(完全同意)，但不说quite disagree。[1][2]下一页 说明:引用此文请注明出处,并请保留该文章链接地址,谢谢~~四、much too, too much的比较much too就是too的强势语，用来修饰形容词或副词，意为“太…”；too much就是much的强势语，用来修饰不可数名词或动词(后面不接任何词)，意为“太多(…)”。如：1. Allen had to call a taxi because the box was ________ to carry all the way home. (全国卷)A. much too heavy B. too much heavy C. heavy too much D. too heavy much【分析】答案选A。heavy是形容词，应用副词too来修饰，而much too就是too的强势语。2. It was ________ late to catch a bus after the party, therefore we called a taxi. (上海卷)A. too very B. much too C. too much D. far 【分析】答案选B。late是形容词，用much too修饰。五、nearly, almost的比较在肯定句中或者don’t, doesn’t, didn’t之前，两者可互换，只是almost = very nearly。但是：1. 在not, very, pretty之后用nearly，不用almost。2. 在no, no one, none, nobody, nothing, nowhere, never, any, too, impossible, think, believe, wish等前面用almost，而不用nearly。若是做选择题，只要记住在not, very, pretty之后用nearly外，一般选almost。如：There isn’t nearly enough time to learn all these words. 把这些词都学会，是间远远不够。Almost no one believes her. 几乎没有人相信她。六、so, that, such的比较so是副词，后面一定是接形容词或副词；在口语中，常用that来代替so；such是形容词，后接“(形容词+)名词”，但在名词有表示“多”“少”的many, much, little, few时，要用so。如：1. Can you believe that in ________ a rich country there should be ________ many poor people? (全国卷)A. such; such B. such, so C. so; so D. so; such 【分析】答案选B。名词前用形容词such，such a rich country =so rich a country；在many前要用so。2. Sometimes it was a bit boring to work there because there wasn’t always ________ much to do. (广东卷)A. such B. that C. more D. very【分析】答案选B。much前用so, 不用such。口语中，常用that来代替so。 说明:引用此文请注明出处,并请保留该文章链接地址,谢谢~~
