分析广东近几年的中考真题可知,形容词和副词为每年的必考点,主要出现在语法选择、完形填空和短文填空中。
形容词、副词的用法
一、形容词的用法
1.形容词的基本用法
形容词在句中主要作定语和表语,也可以作状语、补语等成分。作定语时修饰名词或代词(一般为不定代词),修饰名词时常位于名词前,修饰不定代词时常位于不定代词后;作表语时和系动词连用,构成系表结构。如:
(1)The old man died on a cold morning.(作定语) 这个老人死于一个寒冷的早晨。
(2)I have something important to discuss with you.(作定语) 我有一些重要的事与你讨论。
(3)He arrived home,hungry and cold.(作状语,可放句首或句末) 他回到家,又饿又冷。
(4)The good news made everyone happy.(作宾补) 这个好消息使每个人高兴。
(5)People had to burn coal to keep warm in winter in the past.(作表语)过去人们在冬天得靠烧煤保暖。
2.形容词的特殊用法
(1)-ed形容词,指人对事物的感受,主语一般是人;-ing形容词,指事物对人的影响,主语一般是物。如:
The boy is interested in the interesting film.这个男孩对这部有趣的电影很感兴趣。
(2)基数词+度量词+形容词。如:2 meters wide 2米宽;8 years old 8岁
(3)系动词+动词的过去分词。如:be lost 迷路;be/get married 结婚;get dressed (自己)穿衣服
(4)形容词+连字符“-”+名词+“-ed”。如:a kind-hearted man 一个心地善良的人
二、副词的用法
1.副词的分类

方式副词 badly;carefully;happily;loudly;quickly;quietly;safely;slowly
疑问副词 when;where;why;how(how long;how soon;how far;how often)
2.副词的用法
副词通常作状语,修饰动词、形容词、副词或整个句子;也可以作定语、表语或宾补等成分。如:
(1)She parked the car very easily.(作状语)她停车非常容易。

(3)Is the radio on or off? (作表语)收音机是开着的还是关着的?

3.形容词变副词
序号 规则 示例

4 其他变化 true→truly;full→fully
Tips: (1)有些形容词和副词是同形的,如:fast,early,hard,straight等。如:
This is hard work.We have to work hard.这是困难的工作。我们必须努力工作。
(2)有些形容词加上-ly之后变成副词,但意义和原来差别很大。如:hard,hardly;most,mostly;late,lately等。如:

(3)某些以-ly结尾的词是形容词而不是副词。如: friendly,lively,lovely,lonely,silly,orderly,daily,likely等。如:

(4)enough作形容词时,意为“足够的”,放在名词前;作副词时,意为“足够地”,放在形容词、副词的后面(简单记忆法:enough位于名前,形副后)。如:

形容词、副词词义辨析
分析广东近五年的中考真题可知,形容词、副词的词义辨析为每年的必考点,主要出现在完形填空中。广东中考常考的形容词、副词归纳详见右侧二维码。
一、形容词、副词在语法选择中的运用
  分析广东近四年的中考语法选择可知,形容词、副词考查了6次{形容词的比较级考查了2次:2023(31.greater),2020(34.better);形容词的最高级考查了1次:2021(31.the longest);副词的原级考查了3次:2022(35.successfully),2022(36.hard),2021(40.excitedly)}。该考点主要考查形容词、副词原级、比较级、最高级的用法及同根词的词义辨析。考生需要根据句式结构和上下文语境或固定搭配来确定答案。
1.句式结构判断法
(2023广东)For him,a space camp is  31  than any other camp in the world.
(  )31.A.great B.greater C.the greatest
解析:由下文中的“than”可知,空处应用形容词的比较级。故选B。
2.上下文语境判断法
(2022广东)She worked  36  .… But she got up at 6:00 in the morning. And she was always the last one to go bed…
(  )36.A.hard B.harder C.the hardest
解析:根据下文“But she got up at 6:00 in the morning.”可知,她学习努力,结合上下文语境可知,这里举了一些例子说明“她”学习努力,没有和其他人比较的含义。故选A。
  There was once a farmer who had a large field of corn.He worked on it with the  18  care,but the corn was dying because there had been no rain for a long time.He felt very  19  .
( C )18.A.great B.greater C.greatest
( A )19.A.sad B.sadness C.sadly
C
A
二、形容词、副词在完形填空中的运用
分析广东近五年的中考完形填空可知,形容词、副词考查了18次{形容词考查了12次:2023(41.cheerful,50.luckiest),2022(45.moved,49.popular,50.difficult),2021(43.right,50.future),2020(41.was bored of,43.popular,44.short),2019(51.worried,54.honest);副词考查了6次:2023(47.Finally),2022(48.slowly),2021(42.seriously),2020(45.suddenly,pletely),2019(52.still)}。该考点主要考查形容词、副词原级的词义辨析。考生需要根据句式结构和上下文语境、固定搭配或关联词汇等来确定答案。
1.上下文判断法
(2023广东)Little Dora always wanted a sister. So when Mum told her she would have one in six months,she felt very  41  .
(  )41.A.rich B.afraid C.nervous D.cheerful
解析:根据上文提到的“always wanted a sister”和“she would have one”可知,Dora应该是感到很开心。故选D。
2.固定搭配
(2021广东)… Last month,a space agency(机构) told the public that they were 41.  looking for  “a planet protection officer”.Some people laughed at the funny job title,but a 9-year-old boy look the information  42  . He wrote a letter to the agency,saying that he wanted the job.
(  )42.A.simply B.lightly C.seriously D.clearly
解析:take … seriously意为“认真对待……”,是固定搭配,故选C。
3.关联词汇判断法

(  )44.A.long B.short C.thick D.thin
解析:由下文“他想换长发”可推测出,他的“短发”与他的新面貌不匹配。long的反义词是short,故选B。
My sister’s white blouse had a large opening on the back.My wife took it over and checked  20  ,and then said,“Let me take it home and repair it.”
Three days went past,and I was  21  to see it again: all the openings were sewed up by thin and  22  thread(线) and they looked like ice crystals(晶体) on winter’s branches(树枝) in the north.She  23  made a lovely snowman and a wooden house on the blouse.I said with praise,“It’s just as  24  as a piece of art.”

三、形容词、副词在短文填空中的运用
分析广东近六年的中考短文填空可知,形容词、副词考查了10次{形容词考查了7次:2023(73.popular),2022(68.good),2021(72.proud),2020(73.little),2019(76.favorite),2018(74.wide/long),2018(75.such);副词考查了5次:2023(70.by),2022(70.ago),2019(73.ago),2018(76.However);比较级考查了1次:2022(74.more)}。该考点主要考查形容词、副词的词形转换。考生需要根据固定搭配、句式结构和上下文语境来确定答案。
1.固定搭配法
it either be because what else by invent clean popular habit hundred
(2023广东)About 800 years ago,people made a kind of brushes with pig hair and bamboo … As time went 70.      ,the forms of toothbrushes changed.
解析:由上文中的“About 800 years ago”并结合生活常理可知,事物会随着时间流逝发生变化。结合空前的“time went”可知,这里表示“(时间)流逝”,用固定搭配go by,故填by。
2.句式结构和上下文判断法
(1)形容词在系动词后作表语
it either be because what else by invent clean popular habit hundred
(2023广东)Around the 15th century,the Chinese toothbrush found its way into Europe.It become 73.      among local people soon.
解析:空处位于系动词became之后,可知此处应用形容词;根据语境和备选词可知,此句表示“它很快在当地人中流行起来”。故填popular。
(2)根据句子时态,判断时间副词
He bought a house there over 30 yaers 73.      ,but in 2010 the village was to be pulled down.
解析:由“bought”可知,本句的时态是一般过去时,“一段时间+ago”表示“……前”,用在一般过去时中,故填ago。
(3)形容词在名词前,作定语
One of them was a picture of Andy.He was my 76.
     singer.I liked him so much that …
解析:空处修饰名词“singer”。由下文“我如此喜欢他,以至于……”可以推测出,他是我“最喜欢的”歌手。favorite意为“特别喜爱的”,是形容词,可以修饰名词,故填favorite。
(4)形容词在名词后,作后置定语,常用在“基数词+度量词+形容词”结构中,说明年龄、长度、宽度、高度等
… to rebuild a broken brick(砖) wall in the yard.The wall was fifty feet 74.      and around sixteen feet high.
解析:下文的“sixteen feet”与上文的“fifty feet”相对应,由下文的形容词“high”可推测出空处应该填表示“宽/长”的形容词。由于该墙是在院子里,所以50英尺“宽”或50英尺“长”都是可以的。wide意为“宽的”,是形容词,long意为“长的”,是形容词,故空处填wide/long。
(5)副词修饰整个句子
They didn’t know why their father gave them 75.  such  a huge job.76.      , with the attitude(态度) of “one brick more”,both Will and Harry rebuilt the wall in 77.  a  period of six months.
解析:根据句意可知,空前和空后表示转折。由空后的逗号(,)和空处修饰整个句子可判断空处应用however。however意为“然而”,是副词,单独使用,表示转折,后面常用逗号(,)和句子隔开。句首首字母大写,故填However。
My father works every day 25.  late  into the night,sometimes even forgetting to eat dinner,and gets up early as well.Even when he’s at home,he always thinks about his work and 26.  hardly  ever spends any time with my mother and me.
late 
hardly

2.—Among the subjects,Mary’s favorite subject is English.
—You mean that Mary likes English  best  (well/best).
3.He is  much  (much/more) cleverer than his brother.

I had too many things to do and always felt busy.Whenever my daughter caused me to change my plans,I  1  thought to myself,“We don’t have time for this.” So the two words I always said to her were: Hurry up.
The other day,the two of us rode to a  2  near our home.After shopping I bought her an ice-cream,and she sat down at a table happily.
Suddenly a(n)  3  look appeared on her face.“Do I have to eat it up in a hurry,Mum?” I nearly cried when hearing this—the pains of a hurried life influenced my poor girl so  4  ! I thought of the times when I rushed my child through life.I began  5  what really matters in life …
As she looked at me waiting to know if she could take her time,I knew I had to make a  6  .“You don’t have to hurry.Just  7  it,” I said gently.Her whole face brightened and her shoulders relaxed.We sat side by side and talked about things that both of us  8  .
When she got to the last bite(一口),she held it out to me.“I saved the last bite for you,Mum,” she said  9  .At that time,I realized I shouldn’t have  10  the beautiful moments with my child.I gave my child a little time … and in return,she gave me her last bite.It reminded me that things taste sweeter and love is easier to get when you stop rushing through life.
