1. Maybe I should go to school by taxi. 或许我应该坐出租车去上学。
by和表示交通工具的名词（名词前没有
任何冠词）连用，意思是“乘、坐”。
例如：travel by train/car/ship/
underground/boat/bus/taxi
乘火车/汽车/轮船/地铁/小船/
公交车/出租车出行
询问某人的交通方式, 常用 “How do you go / get to ... ”, 意为“你怎么去…… ” 。如:
—How do you go to the zoo 你怎么去动物园呢？
—By bike. 骑自行车。
注意: 用“by +交通工具名词”表示交通方式时,交通工具名词只能用单数, 不能用复数, 也不能被冠词或物主代词等限定, 如by bike (骑自行车), by bus (乘公共汽车), by plane (乘飞机)等。
[拓展] 常见的交通方式表达法还有:
1. in / on + one’s / 冠词+ 交通工具名词。如:
I come here in a taxi. 我乘出租车来这儿的。
2. take a (the) +交通工具名词, 但“骑自行车”
要用ride a bike来表示。如:
Will you take a bus to go there 你乘公共汽车去那儿吗？
试比较以下例句:
I usually take a bus to school.
= I usually go to school on a bus.
= I usually go to school by bus.
我经常乘公共汽车去上学。
3. 要表达“步行”, 可用短语on foot来代替walk。如:
He goes to school on foot every day. 他每天步行去上学。
同义句转换。
1. I walk home every evening. I go home _____ ______ every evening.
2. Can I ride a bicycle to the park Can I go to the park ____ ______________
by bicycle / bike
on foot
两者比较用形容词或副词的比较级，当我
们要将三个或以上的事物进行比较时，要用它
们的最高级。例如：
1. Lingling’s home is the closest to school. 玲玲家离学校最近。（形容词的最高级前要用the）
2. It is the most comfortable way but it’s the most expensive. 这是最舒适的方式，同时也是最贵的方式。
形容词、副词的最高级
3. Tony lives farthest from school. 托尼住得离学校最远。（副词的最高级前可以不用the）
4. Of all the students in my class, Macy writes most carefully. 班上所有的学生中，梅西写得最仔细。
二、不规则的：每个单词有其不同的最高级形式，需个别记忆。如： good→best （形容词）
well → best （副词）
[详见下面的表格]
形容词和副词的最高级的不规则变化
注意：在表示“A比B……”时，我们用A is
… than B，但最高级表达的是三个及三个
以上的事物的比较状况，所以后面通常用
in/of/among… 来表示比较的范围。
例如：Tom is the tallest in our class.
Tony lives the closest to school of all my
classmates.
