形容词、副词的最高级
形容词、副词最高级的构成
形容词和副词的最高级变化有两种形式,一种是直接在词尾加上 -est,另外一种就是在单词前面加上 most,词形的变化是由单词的音节数决定的。
构成方法 原级 最高级
单音节和少数双音节单词 一般在词尾加 -est tall, long, young, old, hard, fast, quick tallest, longest,
youngest,
oldest, hardest,
fastest, quickest
一般以 -e结尾的直接加 -st nice, fine, large, close, late nicest, finest,
largest,
closest, latest
构成方法 原级 最高级
单音节和少数双音节单词 以重读闭音节结尾的词如果末尾只有一个辅音字母,应该先双写该字母,再加 -est big, hot, red, thin biggest,
hottest,
reddest,
thinnest
以“辅音字母+ -y”结尾的词,先将 -y 变成 -i,再加 -est busy, easy, early busiest,
easiest,
earliest
构成方法 原级 最高级
大部分双音节和多音节单词 在单词前面加 most careful, carefully, dangerous, slowly, beautiful, beautifully most careful,
most carefully,
most dangerous, most slowly,
most beautiful,
most beautifully
形容词、副词最高级的用法
用于三者或三者以上事物进行比较,后面通常用of/in/among表示比较的范围
e.g. Jim is the tallest in our class.
吉姆是我们班个子最高的。
用法:
(1)当表示在某个范围内第几长、宽、高时,应用最高级。
e.g. Which river is the first longest in the world
世界第一长的河流是哪条河
(2)“one of + the+形容词最高级+名词复数”表示“最……之一”。
e.g. one of the longest rivers 最长的河流之一
形容词最高级前面一般加定冠词the;副词最高级前面可以加the,也可以不加the
e.g. Lily is the best singer in our school.
莉莉是我们学校最好的歌手。
Tom lives farthest from here among us.
汤姆是我们中住得离这儿最远的。
[重点] 下列词可修饰最高级:by far, far, much, almost, nearly。
e.g. This hat is nearly / almost the biggest.
这顶帽子几乎是最大的了。
注意:序数词可修饰最高级。
e.g. Africa is the second largest continent.
非洲是第二大洲。
[易错点] 有时形容词最高级前面没有the,不表示最高级的含义,只表示“非常……”。
e.g. It is a most important problem. =
It is a very important problem.
它是个很重要的问题。
