四级语法讲座8：比较结构.ppt

I.? 考点分析 尽管比较级包括平级比较、比较级和最高级以及倍数等知识点，但考试中考察的重点是平级的比较和倍数。要掌握以下几点： 1. 在分句中以替代词do的某个形式代替主句的谓语部分George writes as neatly as John does. They bought fewer books than the others did. 分句中的主语和替代词do也可采用倒装的形式: Some people have no doubt that their cat understands as many words as does a dog. Nobody did more for education in this country than did the late Mr. Green. I.? 考点分析 2. 形容词比较结构与名词搭配时的词序问题在as…as或more than结构中，如果出现名词，通常将名词置于比较结构中。 I haven’t seen as old a car as this for years. I can’t drink as sweet coffee as this. There are more intelligent men than John. 但有时也将名词置于比较结构之前。 I haven’t seen a car as old as this for years. I can’t drink coffee as sweet as this. There are men more intelligent than John. I.? 考点分析 3. 比较结构的修饰语修饰as…as结构的有：nearly, almost, exactly, twice, (three) times, not nearly, not half, nothing like, by no means, nowhere near, quite等词，这些修饰语无一例外地置于 as…as　结构之前。 修饰more than结构的有：far, even, many, much, still, a lot, a (little) bit, rather, slightly, (three) times, not any等词，这些修饰语一般置于more than结构之前。 修饰最高级结构的有：by far, much, easily, nearly, almost, not quite, not really, by no means, nothing like, nowhere near, nest, second, third, yet, ever等，这些修饰语位置各有不同，可前，可中，可后。 I.? 考点分析 4. 当more than结构表示“与其说不如说”时，它实质上不能算是比较结构。He is more big than strong. I was more annoyed than worried when they didn’t come home. 这种句子肯定前者，与less than恰好相反。 He was less hurt than frightened. (=He was more frightened than hurt.) 当more than 表示“不止是：时，也不是比较结构。 My trip to Beijing was more than sightseeing. He is more than happy about it. He more than complained: he threw the whole book of rules at me. I.? 考点分析 5. 注意 as much of a…as, more of a…than, less of a…than的用法: It was much of a success as I had hoped.?? He is more of a sportsman than his brother.?? He is less of a fool than I thought he was. 四级真题 比较结构 1. Her fluency in English gives her an advantage _____ other girls for the job. (93/1/47)??
