2016初升高英语语法衔接

2.

He is my eldest daughter.

Who is the eldest of the three (sisters或brothers)? 下面一句最能说明两者之间的区别: My elder brother is one year older than I.

far的比较级和最高级也分别有两种形式，即farther和further; farthest和furthest。对距离进行比较，即表示“更远”、“较远”时，美国英语常用farther, farthest, 英国英语中further较farther更常用。如：

He is too tired to go any further (farther).

The school is on the further (farther) side of the mountain.

further的主要意思是“进一步”(此时不能用farther代替)。如: Don’t make any change till further notice. Please wait for further information. furthest现在已很少使用了，对距离或者是程度比较都常用farthest。如: Who ran (the ) farthest? She is the farthest advanced of all my students. 九、形容词、副词比较级前的程度状语

形容词、副词的比较级前可有一个状语，表示比较的程度，常见的有： 1. many, much, a lot, a good (great) dea1, far (by far) 等表示“?得多”,如: We are making far greater progress now than we did last year. She looks much younger than she actually is. Joan made a lot more paper flowers than Mary.

2. some, any表示“一些”。some用于肯定句，any用于否定句或疑问句。如:

I have got some more books, but not enough. Have you got any more money from him?

3. a little, a bit表示“稍许”,“一点儿”。如:

May I stay here a little longer? This lesson is a bit more difficult than that one. 4. still, even等表示“甚至更”、“还要”。如:

Tom studies harder than Jack. Peter studies even (still) harder.

5. 当副词all修饰比较级时，前面应加定冠词the，意思是“越发地?”

When I learned that he was a boy of not more than ten, my wonder was all the greater. 6. 在比较句型more than的结构中应注意以下几点

1) 表示“弱化比较”意义的形容词无论是多音节还是单音节，一概用less。例如：

My father is less angry than yesterday. (我爸爸的气较昨天消了一些。) 2) no + 比较级 + than表示“只有”“仅”“就那么??”或“一样”。如:

My whole school education added up to no more than one year. I could see no more than you.

3) not + 比较级 + than表示“不比”,“不足”。如:

That boy is not more than fifteen, I think.. 请注意下面的句子 They designed a device (装置) no bigger / not bigger than a match box.

用no bigger than表示这一装置“仅一个火柴盒那么大”;用not bigger 表示这一装置“还没有一个火柴盒大”。

4) no more…than或not…any more than“和?一样地不?”，意味着两者都否定，

但往往着重说明前面的一个分句，其作用相当于“neither…nor”。例如： Mary is no more diligent than Tom. = Neither Mary nor Tom is diligent.

49

“玛丽和汤姆俩人都不勤奋。”

5) not more… than“不如?；不及于?”，语气常着重于后面的一个分句，常可

与“not so / as … as”互换使用。例如：

This story is not more interesting than that one. = This story is not so/as interesting than that one.

7. 用数字表示确切的量或倍数关系。如: There are 10 more students in our class than in Class 2.

Mr. Johnson is three years older than his wife.

十、倍数表示法

英语中表示倍数的方法大致有三种,即:

1. A + be (或谓语动词) + 数词 + times + as + 形容词原级 + as B. This playground is three times as large as that one.

2. A + be (或谓语动词) + 数词 + times + the + (size, weight, length, width, depth, height,

number…) + of + B.

This playground is three times the size of that one.

3. A + be (或谓语动词) + 数词 + times + 形容词比较级 + than B. This playground is twice larger than that one. 以下句子的意思是相同的。

This street is four times the length of that one.

= This street is four times as long as that one. = This street is four times longer than that one. = This street is four-fold longer than that one.

注意：但若表示“比?大 （长、宽、重、高、深?等）多少”，须用“数字％＋比较级＋than”来表达。上句还可转换为： This street is 300% longer than that one.

(这条街比那条街长三倍/百分之三百。或：这条街是那条街四倍长)
