一、考查形容詞、副詞的區別
考點說明:形容詞主要修飾連系動詞、名詞;副詞主要修飾行為動詞、形容詞、過去分詞。
典型考例:
1. She told us a story. Her voice sounded ____. (06河北)
A. sweet B. small C. clearly D. sadly
析:A sound為連系動詞,后面應接形容詞作表語。
2. I think Jack does his homework ____ than his sister. (06連云港)
A. careful B. more carefully
C. carefully D. more careful
析:B than和語境邏輯暗示該空表示“更小心”,且修飾行為動詞does,因此應填副詞比較級more carefully。
二、考查對形容詞、副詞級的判別
考點說明:比較級用于兩者之間進行比較,最高級用于三者或三者以上之間進行比較。
典型考例:
1. Look at that red car! I think its ____ in the world. (06長沙)
A. more beautifulB. so beautiful C. the most beautiful
析:C 世界上的紅色小汽車很多,那輛紅色小汽車是世界上最漂亮的,因此該空應填the most beautiful。
2. ——Whose picture is better, Jacks or Toms?
——Both of them are good. But I think Jack draws ____ Tom does. (06常德)
A. as good as B. as well asC. better than
析:C由語境邏輯可知,該空表示“比……更好”,因此應填better than。
3. Well try our best to do the work with ____ money and ____ people. (06 南京)
A. few; little B. a few; a little
C. less; fewer D. fewer; less
析:C 該空把經過努力后的工作效率與現在的工作效率作比較,因此應使用比較級。進一步分析可知,第一空表示“較少的”,修飾不可數名詞money,應填less;第二空表示“較少的”,修飾可數名詞people,應填fewer。
4. Of all the ball games, I like baseball ____. Its really my favorite. (06遼寧)
A. well B. good C. better D. best
析:D Of all the ball games暗示該空應為最高級,因此應填best。
三、考查比較級的程度修飾語
考點說明:比較級的程度修飾語主要有even, still, far, much, very much, a lot, a great deal, a bit, a little, rather, any(用于否定句和疑問句),這些詞后面也必須接形容詞、副詞的比較級。
典型考例:
1. This year our school is ____ than it was last year. (06陜西)
A. much more beautiful B. much beautiful
C. the most beautiful D. beautiful
析:A than暗示該空應填形容詞比較級more beautiful,并可用程度副詞much修飾。
2.“Please dont be angry with me,” said Amy laughingly. This made me even ____. (06佛山)
A. angry B. angrier C. angriest
析:B even應修飾比較級,因此該空應填angrier。
3. Were proud of the great changes in Xining; were sure it will be even ____ tomorrow. (06青海)
A. good B. better C. best
析:Beven后面應填形容詞比較級,因此該空應填better。
四、考查含比較級的重要句型
考點說明:含比較級的重要句型有:the+比較級, the+比較級,意為:越……越……,前半句表示條件,后半句表示結果。more and more,越來越多的,修飾可數名詞或不可數名詞;越來越……,修飾多音節或部分雙音節原級形容詞、副詞。whats more,更重要的是。whats worse/worse than all/worse than ever/to make the matter worse,更糟糕的是。
典型考例:
1. ____ exercise you take, ____ you will feel. (06佳木斯)
A. Much, healthy
B. The more, the healthier
C. More, healthier
析:B 該句表示“你從事的鍛煉越多,你就感到越健康”,應用“the+比較級,the+比較級”句型。
2. ——How do you like our city?
——I think its becoming ____. (05山西)
A. more beautiful and more beautiful
B. more and more cleaner
C. more and more beautiful
D. clean and clean
析:C 分析語境邏輯可知,該空表示“越來越漂亮”,因此應填more and more beautiful。
五、考查同級比較的重要句型
考點說明:as…as(否定式為not as/so…as)為同級比較句型,表示“和……一樣……”,as…as中間應為原級形容詞、副詞,它可以演變為下列句型:as…as+數詞+名詞(復數),……達……;X times as…as…,……是……X倍……;as…as you can, as…as possible,盡可能……。
典型考例:
1. Mount Qomolangma, “the roof (屋脊) of the world”, is as ____ as 8844.43 metres. (06哈爾濱)
A. high B. higher C. highest
析:A as…as+數詞+名詞(復數)句型中間應為原級形容詞,因此該空應填high。
2. ——The classroom is ____ clean ____ it was yesterday.
——Sorry. I forgot to clean it. (06福州)
A. as; as B. so; as C. not so; as D. more; than
析:C 由Sorry. I forgot to clean it.可以推出空檔表示“……沒有……干凈”,因此應使用not so…as句型。
3. ——Tom is six and he is ____ his sister Jane. How old is Jane?
——Three. (05山東)
A. twice as old as B. two years older than
C. three years younger than D. as old as

4. Write ____ and try not to make any mistakes. (05河北)
A. as careful as possible B. as carefully as you can
C. most careful D. more careful
析:B 分析語境邏輯不難發現,該空表示“盡可能小心地”,可使用as carefully as you can或as carefully as possible句型。
六、考查形容詞修飾不定代詞時的位置
考點說明:形容詞修飾不定代詞應放在其后。
典型考例:
——What are you going to give your mother for her birthday?
——Im not sure. But Ill buy her ____. (06哈爾濱)
A. something specialB. anything special C. special something
析:A 該空表示“一些特別的東西”,應填something special。形容詞修飾不定代詞應放在其后,因此C項錯誤。
七、考查比較級與冠詞的搭配關系
考點說明:與than搭配的比較級形容詞前不可加冠詞修飾,但不與than連用的比較級形容詞前面可加不定冠詞修飾,表示“一個更……”。
典型考例:
1. ——We spent all our money because we stayed at the most
expensive hotel in town.
——Why didnt you stay at ____ one? (05江西)
A. a cheap B. a cheaper C. the cheap D. the cheaper

A. a cheap B. a cheapest C. a cheaper D. the cheapest
析:C 由語境邏輯可知,該空表示“一只更便宜的MP3”,因此應填a cheaper。
八、考查易混形容詞、副詞區別
考點說明:因為拼寫相似、結構相近、意義相連,不少形容詞、副詞十分容易混淆,常見的有:ever(曾經),never(從不);hardly(幾乎不),nearly(幾乎); much too(太),只能修飾原級形容詞、副詞,too much(太多的……),只能修飾不可數名詞;many(許多),只能修飾可數名詞,much(許多),只能修飾不可數名詞;alone(單獨的),強調客觀上獨自一人,lonely(孤獨的),強調感情上寂寞無聊。
典型考例:
1. Health is very important to us. We should eat more vegetables and fruit instead of ____ rich food.
A. too much B. much too C. very much
析:A 由語境邏輯可知,該空表示“太多的”,且修飾不可數名詞rich food,因此應填too much。
