（2）【辨析】get to、arrive与reach
get to 后面跟地点名词，大小地点都可以；后面跟地点副词时须省略to。
arrive 用作不及物动词，后面直接跟地点副词；arrive at后常接表示车站、学校、邮局、机场等较小的地点名词；arrive in 后常接表示国家、城市等较大的地点名词。
reach 用作及物动词，后面直接跟地点名词或副词。
2 We can also take a train.
also作副词，意为“也，而且”。
【辨析】also、too与as well
①also比too和as well正式，用于肯定句中，通常置于行为动词之前或be动词、助动词、情态动词之后。
②too多用于非正式的口语中，通常置于肯定句句末，可用逗号与句子其他成分隔开。
③as well也用在肯定句句末，但其前不用逗号与句子其他成分隔开。
活动小结
通过以上的活动，我们可以知道：
“How can I get to...？”是一个问路的句型，表示“我怎样去……(某地)？”
also作副词，意为“也，而且”。
单词辨析get to、arrive与reach
探究二
概念：英语中三者或三者以上相比较，表示“最……”
这样的最高程度概念时，要用 “the+最高级” 的结构表示。形容词的最高级前必须加定冠词the, 副词最高级前的the可以省略。这种句式一般带有表示比较的介词短语of/in/among等。
例：Wang Lin is the tallest in our class.
This theater is the cheapest of the three.
形容词、副词的最高级
1.构成
（1）规则变化。单音节词和少数双音节词加后缀-est,多音节和大部分双音节词前加most。具体见下表：
构成方法 原级 最高级
单音节和少数双音节词 一般在词尾加-est old、quick、new、fast 、 hard oldest、quickest、 newest、fastest 、hardest
以不发音的字母e 结尾的词直接加-st nice、fine、wide、 close、large nicest、finest、 widest、closest、 largest
以“辅音字母+y” 结尾的词，变y为i, 再加-est early、friendly、 happy、busy、easy earliest、friendliest、 happiest、busiest、easiest
以重读闭音节结尾且末尾只有一个辅音字母的词，先双写这个辅音字母，然后再加-est fit、big、hot、thin、 fat fittest、biggest、 hottest、thinnest、 fattest
多音节和大部分双音节词 在单词前加most popular、difficult、 expensive most popular、 most difficult、 most expensive
（2）不规则变化。这些词需要特殊记忆。
部分词见下表：
原级 最高级
good、well best
bad\ill、 badly worst
many\much most
little least
far farthest\furthest
写出下列单词的最高级形式：
1. short → _________________
2. nice → _________________
3. big → _________________
4. thin → _________________
5. early → _________________
6. slowly → _________________
shortest
nicest
biggest
thinnest
earliest
most slowly
7. beautiful → _________________
8. carefully → _________________
9. badly → _________________
10. much → _________________
11. little → _________________
12. far → __________________
the most beautiful
the most carefully
worst
most
least
farthest / furthest
2.用法
三者或三者以上的人或事物相比，要用形容词或副词的最高级。这种句式中常有表示比较范围的介词短语，如in或of短语，或通过上下文提示比较范围。
例：Taking a plane is the fastest and it's also the most expensive.坐飞机是最快的，也是最昂贵的。
　　形容词和副词最高级的构成口诀
结尾直加 est属一般，详细构成方法逐一来侃谈。一辅音结尾重读闭音节看，辅音双写加 est是习惯。辅音加ly除外有型感，按照去y， iest方法办。上述皆属单音部分双音段，下面把多音节规律来看看。词前加most此规律唤。
规则变化到此已全部谈完。有些不规则变化请你记全。
“双好”best，best记得宽。“坏病”worst，worst莫记乱。“双多”most，most不用管。“老、远”两种形式别记错，“有点”least，least记清盼。
3．使用最高级时应注意的几个问题
形容词的最高级前通常要加定冠词the；副词的最高级前可加，也可不加。 The Nile is the longest river in the world.尼罗河是世界上最长的河流。
Who runs fastest in your class？
在你们班谁跑得最快？
表示“最……的……之一”用“one of＋the＋形容词最高级＋复数名词”。 Han Mei is one of the best students in our class.
韩梅是我们班最好的学生之一。
当最高级前有物主代词或名词所有格修饰时，不加定冠词the。 Monday is my busiest day.
星期一是我最忙的一天。
Jack is Jim's best friend.
杰克是吉姆最好的朋友。
形容词的最高级还可以用序数词修饰。 Yangtze River is the third longest river in the world.
长江是世界第三长河。
