新概念英语第二册笔记
③ 以一个辅音字母结尾的单音节词要双写最后一个字母，再加-er，-est ④ 三个或者是三个音节以上（多音节）
比较级的构成 : more+原级
最高级的构成 : the most+原级
有一些双音节词既可在单词结尾加-er，-est，也可与more/less和most/least连用，如narrow，clever，common，pleasant等。
clever— cleverer— more clever fun adj. 快乐 more fun （美国人用） ⑤ 有些构成是不规则的：
good/well(better best)；bad/ill(worse worst)；many/much(more most)；little(less least)； far(farther further , farthest furthest)
（farther:距离上的远和更远，further:程度上的更进一步） further more(更有甚者) old(older elder, oldest eldest) older 比……大 She is older than somebody
elder 做定语修饰其他名词 elder sister (年长的)姐姐 2、比较级和最高级的用法
在使用比较级时，如果需要把所比较的两项都提到，那么就必须比较级后用than： My room is cleaner than the one next door. 如果比较级之所指很清楚，它可独立存在： Which house do you prefer? I prefer the older one.
最高级的限定范围一般用of，among，in等介词短语；限定范围也可以是从句；如果范围很清楚，则可以省略。
John is the tallest of the three brother. This is the coldest day in ten years.
Mary is the most intelligent person I’ve ever met. 【Special Difficulties】
every构成的合成词
every和one，body，thing可以构成复合不定代词everyone，everybody，everything。Everyone和everybody一般可以替换使用，后面的代词既可以用单数，也可以用复数，但它们本身均被视为单数。
Everyone/Everybody knows what he has to do. =Everyone/Everybody knows what they have to do. 每个人都知道自己必须做什么。 Everything is going well. 一切都很顺利。 each和every均可译为“每一个”，两者常可互换。every只能是形容词性，强调整体，常用来指一个大的、不确定的数目，不能直接做主语；each既可作形容词，又可作代词，强调个体，常用以一个确定的并通常是有限的数目，在作代词时，直接作主语或宾语，使用第三人称单数
Every/Each time I wash the car it rains.

Fifteen minutes passed and then, at five to twelve, the clock stopped. The big minute hand did not move. We waited and waited, but nothing happened. Suddenly someone shouted. 'It's two minutes past twelve! The clock has stopped!' I looked at my watch. It was true. The big clock refused to welcome the New Year. At that moment, everybody began to laugh and sing.
