1. a- 開頭的古英文形容詞 => 只能放在名詞後面修飾,可以放到補語修飾
alike , alone , alive , afloat (飄浮) , awake (清醒) , ashore
2.名詞片語中形容詞的順序
愈是表達名詞屬性的形容詞愈要接近名詞,愈是特殊的、不可變的、客觀的特質越要靠近名詞,反之,愈是可變的、臨時的、主觀的因素愈要放的遠離名詞。
EX.The murderer left behind a bloody old black Italian leather glove.
(兇手丟下一隻沾血、老舊、黑色、義大利製的皮手套)
3.定冠詞的判斷
定冠詞the是跟著名詞走的,沒有名詞的片語中,就不需要冠詞.
EX.Yangmingshan is most crowed in March.
分析:most crowed出現在補語,修飾主詞,crowed為過去分詞,屬於形容詞,並加上most為最高級,因為沒有名詞,不需要the.
EX.Yangmingshan is the most crowed of Taipei's scenic spots.
分析:雖然沒有名詞,但有介系詞片語,有明確的指示功能,因而需要定冠詞.
EX.John is the shorter of the twins.
分析:雖然為比較級,由於shorter有明確指示是哪一位,所以仍然要有定冠詞.
4.that與those的使用
EX.My car is bigger than yours.
EX.Car made in Taiwan are better than those made in Koera.
分析:made為過去分詞,which are made in Taiwan簡化過的形容詞片語,those car made in Koera的省略.
5.比較級的倒裝
前言:比較級的句子要求對稱工整.
EX.A chimp has as much I.Q. as a child of five or six does.
(黑猩猩的智商相當於五六歲的小孩)
=A chimp has as mush I.Q as does a child of five or six.
分析:本句使用does代替has I.Q.以避免重複,為了語意流暢,所以把does提前到主詞前,以靠近主詞.
OS.對稱句可以用到裝? 如何倒裝?
EX.Chopsticks are quite as easy to use as a knife and fork.
As....as 相當於 than 的比較連接詞,意思為不一定, as same as ..等同
