中考中词语辨析 　　less, least, fewer, fewest 　　[真题导航] 　　 1.The doctor told Mary to eat ________ vegetables and ________ meat because she was getting fatter and fatter. 　　A. much; little B. more; less 　　C. many; few D. more; fewer 　　2.The number of giant pandas is getting ________ because their living areas are becoming farmlands. 　　A. less and less B. larger and larger 　　C. smaller and smaller D. fewer and fewer 　　3. The shop assistant showed her several DVDs and she chose _______ expensive one. 　　A. less B. least 　　C. the less D. the least 　　[要点领悟] 　　 less“较少的”, least“最少的”，分别是little的比较级和最高级，修饰不可数名词、形容词或副词；fewer和fewest分别是few的比较级和最高级，修饰可数名词的复数。 　　[指点迷津] 　　1.选B。由题干的原因状语从句because she was getting fatter and fatter.可知推知，两个空白处分别填more和less，符合句法句意。 　　2.选B。题干中的the number of giant pandas意为“熊猫的数量”，为可数的内容，所以，空白处应填fewer and fewer“越来越少”，也符合后文的原因状语从句。 　　3.选D。句意为“售货员给她看了几张DVD光碟，于是她选了最便宜的一张”，此处有最级的含义。最高级前通常要用定冠词the，所以D选项正确。 　　alone, lonely 　　[真题导航] 　　1.

You’d better not leave the baby at home by himself. 　　A. lonely B. alone C. awake D. asleep 　　[要点领悟] 　　alone是形容词，只作表语用，意为“单独的”，“独个儿的”，只是陈述一个客观事实。alone还可以作副词用，相当于by oneself; lonely意为“孤独的”，表示主观上感到孤独、寂寞，有较浓厚的感情色彩，指因缺少朋友、同情、友谊时所产生的一种悲伤和忧郁的感情。它是一个形容词，在句子中作表语或定语。用作定语时，意为“荒凉偏僻”，一般多修饰表示地主的名词。 　　[指点迷津] 　　1.选B。it makes the old feel lonely意为“使老人们感到孤独”，与前文意思吻合。 　　2.选B。by himself“他独自地”，alone用作副词时有这一用法。所以正确答案为B。 　　be able to, can 　　[真题导航] 　　1.
