高考英语二轮专题语法总复习

2012届高考英语二轮专题总复习语法精练形容词和副词

一、概念

形容词是用来修饰名词，说明事物或人的性质状态或特征的词。

副词主要用来修饰动词、形容词、副词或其他结构的词。

二、用法

形容词在句中可以充当定语修饰名词、代词，也可作表语表示主语的状态和特征，也可作补语和状语。副词在句中作状语，修饰动词、形容词、副词、介词短语、从句等，也可修饰整个句子。

虽然形容词、副词的用法繁多，但是高考单选中对他们的考查也是有章可循的，主要体现在以下几个方面。

1．形容词和副词在具体语境中的运用

试题中提供的四个选项均属于形式相同、意义相异的形容词或副词，做题时必须根据语境，即根据上下文的意思或逻辑等来确定选项。

Water can absorb and give off a lot of heat without big changes in temperature, thus creating a stable environment.

2．形容词和副词与其他词的搭配

英语中有些形容词和副词与名词、动词，或另一形容词等的搭配与汉语不完全一样，在平时学习中通过运用把它们掌握好。如―大‖雨、―浓‖雾中的―大、浓‖，英语中用heavy；汉语中说人数―多‖，英语中却用large；汉语中说睡得―香‖，英语中却说soundly等。

The number of people present at the concert was much smaller than expected.

This kind of music is well worth listening to.

3.形容词、副词比较等的用法

同级比较用―as＋原级＋as‖，两者比较用―比较级＋than‖，三者或以上比较用―最高级＋in (of)‖。

Speaking of all the songs he has written, I think this is probably his best－known one.

Alan is a careful driver, but he drives the least carefully of my friends.

注意：与比较等级有关的还有几个特殊用法需要引起我们的注意。

(1)―the＋比较级……，the ＋ 比较级……‖表示―越……，越……‖之意，前面的句子相当于条件状语从句，一般不用将来时。

The more you use a dictionary, the more useful you will find it to you.

(2)―the＋比较级＋of the(两者)‖表示―两者中比较……的‖之意。
