不规则变化

特别提醒:
◇further不仅可以指“距离更远”,还可指“程度更深”。记住以下三个词组:further study(进修)
further education(继续教育) further information (进一步的信息)
◇elder仅用于同辈之间的排行,如: elder sister(姐姐) elder brother (哥哥) ◇less作为“更少”仅用来修饰不可数名词,修饰可数名词表示“更少”要用fewer。
第二章 形容词副词比较级较难考点
◇少数单音节词前面加 more, most 构成比较级和最高级, 这类形容词一般为表语形容词和由过去分词变成的形容词
afraid -more afraid, most afraid tired - more tired , most tired fond - more fond , most fond glad -more glad , most glad
bored - more bored , most bored pleased---- more pleased , most pleased ◇下列形容词和副词的比较级和最高级有两种形式,即:既可加-er/-est也可加more/most
strict, often, friendly, clever ◇下列形容词和副词没有比较级和最高(即表示“最高程度”或“绝对状态”的形容词和副词没有比较级和最高级)如:empty, wrong, perfect, unique, extreme, excellent, favourite, true, right, correct, extremely ... ◇比较应在同类事物之间进行。
误:Your English is better than me. 正:Your English is better than mine.
◇比较级前可以有一个表示程度的状语,最常见的三大修饰词是:a little, much, even。 以下单词也可用来修饰:any, far, still, a lot, yet, rather。 My sister is a little taller than me. Their house is much larger than ours. 另外,名词短语也可修饰比较级,说明程度。 I’m three years older than he.
特别提醒:very, quite, too不可修饰比较级。
