否定詞加比較級(jí)

1、淺談“否定詞+比較級(jí)”結(jié)構(gòu)2009-05-12 15:00相當(dāng)一部分學(xué)生對(duì)“否定詞+比較級(jí)”這一結(jié)構(gòu)掌握得不是很好。他們往往把注意力集中在否定詞上，結(jié)果對(duì)含有該結(jié)構(gòu)的句子的理解與正確含義完全相反。聯(lián)系上下文時(shí)，他們又認(rèn)為前后矛盾，愈加糊涂。例如：W How did your interview go ?M I couldn't feel better about it! The questions were very fair , and I seemed tofind an answer for all of them.Q What is the man's attitude

2、 about the interview?A) Pessimistic . B) Worried .C) Confident . D) Distress .很多學(xué)生都不能選出正確答案C)。又如，在讀到下面的句子時(shí)，部分學(xué)生也感到費(fèi)解：It has never been easier to insult people inadvertently. A young lady offers herseatin a crowded bus to an elderly , frail gentleman , and he gives her a dirty look because she has in

3、sulted his manhood .其實(shí)，只要他們知道比較級(jí)用于否定結(jié)構(gòu)可表“最不過(guò)”這一語(yǔ)法現(xiàn)象，就會(huì)懂得“ I couldn't feel better about it "意為"我對(duì)那次面試的感覺(jué)再好不過(guò)了"；"Ithas neverbeen easier to insult people inadverte ntly "意為"人們非常容易無(wú)意之中冒犯別人?！币莆赵摻Y(jié)構(gòu)的用法，須注意以下幾點(diǎn)：.我再同意你不過(guò)了。（或：我完全同意你的意見(jiàn)。）.天氣再糟糕不過(guò)了。.他做得再好不過(guò)了。1 .該結(jié)構(gòu)多為"can&

4、#39;t / couldn't+比較級(jí)"的形式。例如:1) I can't agree with you more2) The weather couldn't be worse3) He couldn't have done better.這使她再高興不過(guò)了。2 .用于該結(jié)構(gòu)中的否定詞除了not之外，還有no, never , nothing等。例如:1) This could give her no greater pleasure2) She's never better ,她現(xiàn)在最好不過(guò)了。（或：她比以往任何時(shí)候都好。）3) Ther

5、e's nothing cheaper .這東西再便宜不過(guò)了。3 .當(dāng)該結(jié)構(gòu)中的比較級(jí)為less時(shí)，該結(jié)構(gòu)意為“一點(diǎn)也不”。試比較：1) He couldn't care more .他非常介意。(或：他最關(guān)心不過(guò)了。)He couldn'tcare less .他毫不介意。(或：他最漠不關(guān)心了。)2) He had never felt more like talking to anyone.他從未如此想和人談話。He had never felt less like talking to anyone.他從未如此不想和人談話。4 .當(dāng)no表示“not at all

6、”之意時(shí)，可以作為副詞放在比較級(jí)詞語(yǔ)前面。這時(shí)，“ no+比 較級(jí)”的意思并非“最不過(guò)”。例如：1) Are you really fifty ? You look no older than thirty-five.你真的五十歲了？看起來(lái)不超過(guò)三十五歲。2) Some people can eat what they like and get no fatter. 有些人想吃什么就吃什么,一點(diǎn)也不發(fā)胖。Although he sometimes loses his temper , his students like him for it .A. no so muchB. no so lit

7、tleC. no moreD. no less盡管他有時(shí)脾氣不好，但學(xué)生對(duì)他的喜愛(ài)沒(méi)有因此而減少。Less是little 的比較級(jí)，表示較少的，更少的，是 more-much的反義詞，前 面加no, no less表示不比。少.其作用同于little ,可作形容詞修飾名詞, 可可作副詞，修飾動(dòng)詞。本題是作副詞，修飾 like.No more表示不再。，although引導(dǎo)讓步狀語(yǔ)從何，表示盡管如何，但仍 然如何。如果選C,意思不符。如果前面是一個(gè)原因狀語(yǔ)從句的話，因?yàn)?。?所以不再喜歡，選C 才符合意思。no less than1. 表數(shù)目或數(shù)量, 其意為不少于、多達(dá)。如:We won no

8、less than £ 500 in the competition.我們?cè)谶@場(chǎng)競(jìng)賽中贏了 多達(dá) 500 英鎊。No less than 100 people came. 來(lái)的人不少于一百。2. 意為 ( 和 ) 一樣、不亞于、至少。如:Our soldiers fought with no less daring than skill.我們的士兵打起仗來(lái)智勇雙全。Lose one s temper 發(fā)脾氣sick 與 ill 的區(qū)別？答： sick 做形容詞時(shí)有”生病的，不適的，嘔吐“之義，做及物動(dòng)詞時(shí)有”猛烈攻擊“之義而 ill 除了做形容詞有”生病，不順，苦惱“之外，還做名詞“
