单 元 知 识 讲 解
1. hardly ever 几乎从不
【重点讲解】
hardly ever 意为“几乎从不”,其中ever 为副词,意为“在任何时间;从来;曾经”,此处起强调作用。
hardly 用作副词,意为“几乎不;几乎没有”,它本身具有否定意义,不能再与其他否定词连用。通常置于连系动词 be、情态动词 can等之后,实义动词之前,也可用来回答 how often 引起的特殊疑问句。如:
She hardly ever does housework.她几乎从不做家务活。
(2) 辨析: hard与 hardly
hard adj.坚硬的 This is a hard bed. 这是 一张硬床。
adj.困难的 = difficult It's hard to speak English well.说好英语很难。
adv.努力地 Mary works hard.玛丽工作努力。
hardly adv.几乎不 She hardly does sports.她几乎不运动。
【重点演练】选用 hard 与 hardly 填空。
(1) Lin Tao ____ goes to the movies.
(2) He always studies ____.
(3) This question is ____ for me to answer.
