形容词和副词,形容词和副词的比较级及最高级，是对动词和名词进行两者或是三者以上比较时而进行的一种语法对比形式。在专业四级考试中，经常会出现一些需要考生特别注意的形容词和副词的特殊结构。,一、形容词1形容词常用来修饰，描述名词或代词，多用作定语、表语或补语。e.g.the former(late)husband an intimate friend He made his father angry.2-ly后缀和形容词后缀-ly常在形容词之后构成副词，但有些以-ly后缀结尾的词却是形容词，看似副词，容易混用。,这类派生词有两类：1)名词+ly=形容词e.g.brotherly,earthly,friendly,lovely等。2）形容词+ly=形容词e.g.lively,lonely,deadly，likely等。【注】有些形容词本身就带ly,如：silly,ugly,daily,chilly等，容易误用为副词。,所以不是凡是以-ly结尾的词就是副词，少部分形容词也以-ly结尾lively 活泼的 friendly 友好的 manly 男子气的 fatherly 慈父般的lovely 可爱的 ugly 丑陋的 lonely 孤独的 deadly 致命的deathly 死一般的 monthly 每月一次的 earthly 世俗的 costly 昂贵的lowly 卑贱的 likely 很可能的kindly 和蔼的 timely 及时的silly 愚蠢的,3只作表语的形容词英语中有些形容词不能放在名词前面作定语，只能用作表语（或后置定语）一般称作表语形容词。这类形容词有两类：第一类是表示健康状况的词，如well，ill。第二类是由前缀a-构成的形容词，如：afraid,alert,alike,alive,alone,aloof,ashamed,asleep,awake,aware,等。,例如：He is well/a healthy man.()He is a well man.()She is ill/sick.()She is a sick person.()She is an ill person.()He is the only alive man in the village after the earthquake.()He is the only man alive in the village after the earthquake.(),【注】1)上述只作表语用的的形容词中，除well,ill外，大多不能同very 连用，而必须用very much.e.g.I am very much afraid of that-too high a reputation would be a burden for me.2）第二类形容词词都不能作前置定语，但当它们本身带有副词修饰时，又可作前置定语。e.g.a really alive student a somewhat afraid boy,4只能作后置定语的形容词1)形容词修饰由some-，any-，every-，no-等和-body/one/thing等组合的复合不定代词时，须后置。e.g.something newanybody present 2)某些以-able和-ible结尾的形容词作定语时常常后置。e.g.imaginable/possible/available等。,这些词作后置定语修饰名词时，名词前常可以有形容词最高级或only等限定词作为前置定语。e.g.We had the greatest difficulty imaginable.Children need the best education possible.Ill send you all the periodicals available.,3)由前缀a-构成的形容词，即上文提到的表语形容词(afloat/alike/alive/alone等)，须后置修饰名词。e.g.The house ablaze was next door to him.The boat afloat was not seen by the enemy.4）在一些头衔或固定词组里，形容词需跟在名词之后。这类词组有：Attorney General 首席检察官,司法部长body politic 全体公民Poet Laureate桂冠诗人time immemorial 史前时期the president elect 当选而尚未就任的总统,5只能作前置定语的形容词1）词尾为-most的形容词，如 topmost，foremost,endmoste.g.Every profession produces its own topmost master.He is considered the foremost British artist of this century.2）词尾为-en 的过去分词形容词，如drunken，spoken,writtene.g.Drunken days have all their tomorrows.They built a robot capable of understanding spoken commands.,3）以物质名词+en构成的形容词，如earthen，golden，wooden,woolene.g.earthen banks a wooden spoona golden crown 4）一些以er结尾的形容词，如 former,latter,inner,outer,minor,upper,utter,elder等e.g.Heart disease dogged his latter years.,【注】形容词enough修饰名词时既可放在名词前，也可位于名词后。e.g.There was just enough room for two cars.There will be time enough to tell you when we meet.但enough作副词修饰形容词或副词时，应当后置。e.g.We should wait patiently before he was old enough to shave.,6 分词转化来的形容词一些形容词是由现在分词和过去分词转化而来的。它们既可充当名词修饰语，又可充当主语补语（表语）和宾语补语；可以被very或too所修饰，也可以有比较级和最高级。这类形容词化了的现在分词和过去分词用作名词修饰语时，仍保留一定的动词含义。一般说来，由及物动词的现在分词转化来的形容词往往带有主动含义；而由及物动词的过去分词转化来的形容词往往带有被动含义。,e.g.He found him to be a very promising young man.During the wedding,the emcee told us an absorbing account of their marriage.Im rather alarmed that youre planning to leave the company.Elephants are distinguished from other animals by their long noses.,7 形容词的顺序单个形容词一般位于所修饰的名词之前，形容词词组一般位于所修饰语之后。特定种类的形容词或特定情况下的形容词作定语时要后置。,1)前置修饰语的排列顺序英语中当不同种类的形容词用来修饰同一名词时，其排列顺序大致如下：a.可以置于冠词前的形容词（all/both/such）b.冠词、指示形容词、所有格形容词、不定形容词(a/an/the/this/those/your/his/our/any/some)c.基数词(one/two/three);序数词(first/second/third)d.表示性质、状态、质量的形容词(good/ugly/sweet/useful)e.表示大小、长短、形状的形容词(big/long/small/square/round),f.表示年龄、新旧、温度的形容词(young/new/old/cold/hot)g.表示颜色的形容词(red/white/black)h.表示国籍、产地、区域的形容词(Chinese/American/British)i.表示材料、用作形容词的名词(iron/silk/stone/fuel)j.动名词、分词(floating/hand-made)OPSHACOM限冠形龄色国材（县官下令杀国材）,这些高大年轻的美国警察these
