专题03 形容词和副词-备战2021年高考英语之纠错笔记系列（原卷版）

易错点 1 形容词与副词的误用 1. We don’t care if a hunting dog smells _____, but we really don’t want him to smell ____. A. well；well B. bad；bad C. well；badly D. badly；bad 【错因分析】容易误选 B，认为两个 smell 均为连系动词，后接形容词作表语。 【试题解析】句中的第一个 smell 为实义动词，意为“闻气味”、“嗅觉”，smell badly 意为“嗅觉差”；第二个 smell 为连系动词，意为“闻起来(有某种气味)”，smell bad 意为“闻起来气味难闻”。全句意为“我们并不介意 一条猎狗的嗅觉不好，但我们的确不希望它的气味难闻”。 【参考答案】 D 2. A few days later, the missing girl was found ____________(death) in the house. 【错因分析】容易误填 deadly。有的学生误以为是副词修饰动词 found 而填 deadly。 【试题解析】分析这个句子的结构可知，形容词 dead 在句中作主语的补语，本句意为：几天后，那个失踪 的女孩被发现死在那幢房子里。 【参考答案】dead 3. This proverb is saying we have to let things go in their (nature) course. 【错因分析】容易误填 nature’s。有的学生认为应该用名词所有格而误填 nature’s。 【试题解析】在名词 course 前作定语，要用形容词形式 natural,表示“自然的过程”。 【参考答案】natural 4. He told me the news in an ______________ voice. A. excite B. excited C. exciting D. excitedly 【错因分析】容易误填 exciting。有的学生可能因为对-ed 形容词与-ing 形容词的用法分不清而误选 C。 【试题解析】-ed 形容词通常说明人，意为“（某人）感到……”，根据句意应该填 excited。本句意为：他告 诉我那个消息，声音很激动。 【参考答案】B 5. Mary is very clever and _____ worth teaching, but her brother is not. Look, he is now_____ asleep in class. A. very, very B. much, very C. well, very D. well, fast 【错因分析】容易误选 A，因为许多学生往往将汉语中的“很”与英语中的 very 等同。 【试题解析】但是，许多汉语中的“很”是不能用英语中的 very 来直译的。如汉语“我很喜欢英语”，在 英语中就不能说成 I very like English，而应说成 I like English very much，因为副词 very 在英语中习惯上不 用来修饰动词。上面一题不能选 A，是因为形容词 worth 和 asleep 习惯上不能用副词 very 来修饰，而是 分别用 well 和 fast 修饰，即说成 be well worth doing sth(很值得做某事)，be fast (或 sound) asleep(熟睡)，所 以此题的最佳答案应选 D。 ◆形容词作定语： 1. 单个形容词做定语，一般放在所修饰的名词之前，但修饰 somebody, someone, something, anybody, anyone, anything, nobody, nothing 等复合不定代词的形容词，则必须放在不定代词之后。如： ☛I would like something cheaper. 我想要点较为便宜的东西。 ☛Do you know anyone [anybody] famous in this field? 你认识这个领域的名人吗? 2. 有时，一个名词前出现有多个形容词作定语，这时，它们的顺序一般须根据它们与被修饰的中心词 之间关系的密切程度而定。在通常情况下，它们的顺序为大致遵循以下原则： 描绘形容词—大小(长短高低)形容词—形状形容词—年龄(新旧)形容词—颜色形容词—国籍形容词— 材料形容词—用途(类别)形容词—名词 【巧学妙记】 限定描绘大长高 形状年龄和新老 颜色国籍出材料 作用类别往后靠 ◆-ed 形容词和-ing 形容词 1. 以 后 缀 – ed 结 尾 的 形 容 词 ( 如 ashamed, delighted, excited, frightened, interested, moved, pleased, surprised, worried 等)通常用于说明人，不用于说明事物，即使它们所修饰的名词是事物，那它们指的也是与 该事物相关的人。如： ☛He had a pleased smile on his face. 他脸上露出了满意的微笑。 ☛He told me the news in a very excited voice. 他声音很激动地告诉了我这个消息。 第一句中的 a pleased smile 意为“满意的微笑”，它指的是某人因感到满意发出的微笑； 第二句中的 a very excited voice 指的是“很激动的声音”，即指的是某人因很激动而发生那样的声音。 原则上，-ed 形容词通常直接用于说明人，若修饰事物，则多为 air(神态), appearance(外貌), cry(哭声), face(表情), voice(声音), mood(情绪), mood(等显示某人的情感状况的名词。 2. 以后缀 -ing 结尾的形容词(如 delighting, exciting, frightening, interesting, moving, surprising, worrying 等)主要用于说明事物，表示事物的性质或特征，若用它们说明人，则表示此人具有此性质或特征。如： ☛The story is very interesting. 这个故事很有趣。 ☛The man is very interesting. 这个人很有趣。 请再比较并体会以下句子： ☛He is frightened. 他很害怕。 ☛He is frightening. 他很吓人。 ☛He has a frightened look on his face. 他脸上带有惊恐的神情 ◆副词的用法： 主要用来修饰动词、形容词、其他副词或全句，说明时间、地点、程度、方式等概念的词。副词在句 中主要作状语。 ◆填形容词还是副词？ 动词后面一般都跟副词，但不是所有动词后面都跟副词，实义动词后面跟副词，连系动词后面跟形容 词。 如： ☛She sings beautifully. (sing 是实义动词，beautiful 用来说明唱得如何) ☛Tom draws well.(draw 是实义动词，well 用来说明画得如何) ☛My teacher is young and tall.(is 是系动词，后面跟形容词) ☛She looks sad. (look 是连系动词，后面跟形容词) 还有一些不是连系动词的词，例如 make 和 get，要根据句子的意思判断填形容词还是副词。区分： He is making a kite carefully.(carefully 用来修饰 make 这个动词) He made the teacher angry.(angry 是指 the teacher，而不是修饰 make 这个动词) The student got quiet when the teacher came in.(quiet 是指 the student，而不是修饰 got 这个动词) I get up early.(early 修饰动词 get up) She leaves the room quickly.(quickly 修饰 leave 这个动词) Please leave the door open.(open 是指 the door，而不是修饰 leave 这个动词) 于是有词组：make sb+adj. leave sb+adj. get+adj 因此，填形容词还是副词，首先要弄清楚句子的 意思，判断所修饰的成分是名词/代词还是动词，修饰前者的用形容词，修饰后者的用副词。 1. Masha, a hostess on a Chinese TV program, could not forget those _________ moments when she first arrived in China, _______ about Chinese culture. A. embarrassing； confusing B. embarrassed；confusing C. embarrassing； confused D. embarrassed；confused 2. After ten days’ traveling, the couple arrived home, _________. A. tired and delighted B. tired but delighted C. tiredly and delightedly D. tiredly but delightedly 3. Indeed a lot of skillful methods are used in many advertisements to cheat consumers. Not all ads play tricks on us . A. instead B. though C. still D. anyway 易错点 2 连接副词的用法 1. He was upright，loyal and highly respected. ，he was dismissed from office. 【错因分析】易误用 But。 【试题解析】前后两句是转折关系，而空格后面有逗号，故要用副词 However。 【参考答案】However 2. While migrant workers may bring about new problems to the cities, they contribute greatly to the development of them, ________. A. though B. yet C. meanwhile D. otherwise 【错因分析】易误选 B。由语境可知前后句表示转折关系，yet 作连词时可以表示“但是”，但是不位于句末。 【试题解析】考查副词的用法。A. though 虽然，然而；B. yet 但是，仍然，尚，已经 C. meanwhile 同时；D. otherwise 否则，在其他各方面。句意：尽管农民工可能给城市带来新的问题，然而，他们对城市的发展贡 献很大。根据句意可知 C、D 项不符合句意，可排除；根据句子结构可知此处应用副词放于句末，though 作副词时表示“然而”，常放于句末且用逗号与其他成分隔开，故 A 项正确；yet 表示“但是”时不放于句 末，故 B 项错误。故选 A。 【参考答案】A 常见的连接副词： 表转折 表递进 表结果 表让步 though, yet, however(其后 常用逗号), otherwise, instead 等 besides, moreover, still therefore, thus anyway ☛What a terrible experience! However, you’re safe now—that’s the main thing. 多么可怕的经历啊！不过你现在安全了——这是主要的事情！ 注意： instead, besides 等很多词都是起连接作用的副词，不能做连词使用，因此它们所在的句子和前面的句子之间 只有语义上的逻辑关系，而句子之间在语法上是独立的，因此两个句子之间要用句号、分号或用 and 连接。 1. Li Ping works hard at his lessons. He didn’t get the first place in the exam, ________. A. though B. yet C. however D. although 2. Though the boy came back to life, ______ he was still weak. A.but B.yet C.however D.so 易错点 3 形容词与副词的比较等级 1. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is ___________（clean） than ever. 【错因分析】容易填 clean。有的学生没有注意到后面有 than，这里要用比较级。 【试题解析】从后面的 than 可知，此处要用比较级，而且是单音节词，因此填 cleaner。句意：最后辛勤的 劳动得到了回报，现在河里的水比以往任何时候都清澈。 【参考答案】cleaner 2. --- How did you find your trip to Water Park in the summer of 2016? --- I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was ________ than I expected. A. even much interesting B. far more interesting C. so far interesting D. far from interesting 【错因分析】容易误选 A。有的学生知道此题应该用比较级，想到 much 也可以修饰比较级，故误选 A。 【试题解析】考查形容词。根据后面的“than I expected”可知，此处运用比较级 more interesting，而 far 可以 修饰比较级。故选 B。 【参考答案】B 修饰形容词,副词比较级的常用修饰词有:no, a little, a bit, much, even, still, a lot, a great deal, far, by far, rather, any 等。 1) 只用于修饰比较级的： much，still，even 2) 既可以修饰比较级又可以修饰原级的：a little， a bit， rather 等 。 3) even 修饰形容词，副词的比较级,以加强比较的语气和程度。 4) 在这些词中,其中 no 在修饰比较级时,在意义上否定两者,表示前者在某方面不比后者强多少。 ☛He is no richer than Peter. 他不比彼得富裕多少.=He is as poor as Peter. 他和彼得一样穷。表示前者比后者强一点时,通常采用 a little，a bit 等。 ☛The room is a bit larger than that one.这个房间比那个稍大一点。 5）表示前者比后者强很多时,通常采用 much，even，still 等。(still 修饰形容词,副词的比较级时,可以位于 比较级之前或之后。) ☛He works still harder than ever. =He works harder still than ever. 他比以往更加努力学习了。 6）表示前者在某方面远远地超过对方时,通常采用 far，by far，a lot，a great deal 等。 ☛Matters are a lot better than ever before. 情况远远比以往好。 7）在否定句,疑问句或条件状语从句中，修饰形容词,副词的比较级，只能用 any 来修饰。 ☛He can’t jump any higher. 他不能跳得更高了。 ☛Can he jump any higher? 他能跳得更高一些吗? ☛If you can jump any higher, I will give you a prize.如果你能跳得更高些,我就奖励你。 Work harder, Jim. __________you practice, __________ you can understand. A. The most; the best B. The more; the better C. The less; the better D. The least; the worst 易错点 4 倍数句型的用法 It’s said that the power plant is now __________(两倍大)as what it was. 【错因分析】容易受汉语思维影响，误填 twice larger 或误填 two times。 【试题解析】 倍数的表达方法有很多种，但由题干中的 as 可判断，此处为“A+倍数+as+原级+as+B”结构。 句意：据说这个发电厂现在是以前的两倍大。 【参考答案】 twice as large 用 times 表示倍数（一般限于包括基数在内三倍或三倍以上的数。表示两倍的数，一般用 twice ）。 其句式有： 1） “… times ＋形容词 / 副词的比较级＋ than …”例如： ☛Line AB is three times longer than line CD. 线段 AB 是（线段） CD 的三倍长。 ☛This hall is five times bigger than our classroom. 这个大厅比我们的教室大 5 倍。 2）“… times +as + 形容词 / 副词的原级＋ as …”例如： ☛This table is three times as long as that one. 这张桌子是那张桌子的三倍长。 ☛This dictionary is five times as thick as the one you borrowed from the library. 这本词典的厚度是你从图书馆借的那本（厚度）的 5 倍。 3）“… times + the + 名词（如： size， height， weight， length， width 等）＋ of …”例如： ☛The earth is 49 times the size of the moon. 地球的体积是月球的 49 倍。 ☛This river is three times the depth of that one. 这条河是那条河的三倍深。 4） “… times + more ＋名词＋ than …”例如： ☛He earns five times more money than he did ten years ago. 他现在挣的钱比十年前挣的多 5 倍。 ☛There are twice more students in our class than in theirs. 我们班的学生人数比他们班多两倍。 5）“…times +as many （或 much ）＋名词＋ as…”例如： ☛We’ve produced twice as much cotton this year as （ we did ） ten years ago. 今年我们生产的棉花比十年前多了一倍。（汉语中的多一倍实际上也指两倍一样多。） ☛He has got three times as many books as his sister. 他拥有的书的数量是他妹妹的 3 倍。 6）“…times + what 从句”例如： ☛The length of the road is four times what it was three years ago. 这条路的长度是三年前的 4 倍。 ☛The price of the meat is twice what it was last year.肉价是去年的两倍。 The house rent is expensive here.
