以下是小编为大家整理的形容词和副词的用法总结,希望能帮助大家更好地认识形容词和副词的用法,提高英语水平。
形容词修饰名词,说明事物或人的性质或特征。通常, 可将形容词分成性质形容词和叙述形容词两类,其位置不一定都放在名词前面。
1)直接说明事物的性质或特征的形容词是性质形容词,它有级的变化,可以用程度副词修饰,在句中可作定语、表语和补语。例如:hot 热的。
2)形容词作定语修饰名词时,要放在名词的前边。但是如果形容词修饰以-thing为字尾的词语时,要放在这些词之后,例如:
something nice
3)叙述形容词只能作表语,所以又称为表语形容词。这类形容词没有级的变化,也不可用程度副词修饰。大多数以a开头的形容词都属于这一类。例如:afraid 害怕的。
(错)He is an ill man.
(对)The man is ill.
(错)She is an afraid girl.
(对)The girl is afraid.
这类词还有: well,unwell,ill,faint,afraid,alike,alive,alone,asleep,awake 等。
一、一般副词的位置
在许多情况下,副词都放在所修饰的动词后面或句末。如:
The girl dances very well. 这个女孩跳舞跳得好。
We must work hard. 我们必须努力工作。
He does his work very carefully. 他做工作非常仔细。
I want to see the film very much. 我很想看这部电影。
有时也放在主语后面,谓语动词前面(对动作加以强调)。如:
He angrily closed the door. 他生气地把门关上了。
置于句中的副词,若碰上助动词,则通常放在助动词之后、主要动词之前:
He has just left for work. 他刚刚离开去上班。
We have already read the book. 我们都已读过这本书。
二、频度副词在句中的位置
频度副词表示动作发生的次数,常见的有ever, never, seldom, sometimes, often, always 等,它们通常位于实意动词之前,动词 be、助动词、情态动词之后。如:
He never reads such books. 他从不看那样的书。
He often comes to school late. / He is often late for school. 他上学常迟到。
有时为了强调,频度副词也可位于动词 be、助动词等之前:
She always was late. 她老是迟到。
为了强调等原因,有时频度副词可位于句首或句末(尤其受 very, only修饰时):
Very often the phone rings when I’m in the bath. 电话经常在我洗澡时响起。
Do you go to the cinema very often? 你常去看电影吗?
频度副词 always 和 never 通常不位于句首,除非是祈使句:
Always remember this. 请时刻记住这一点。
Never tell him the news. 千万不要告诉他这消息。
在否定句中,有的频度副词可位于否定词not之后或之前(如usually, often),有的频度副词则必须位于否定词之后(如 always),而有的频度副词必须要位于否定词 not 之前(如 sometimes):
He doesn’t usually come here. / He usually doesn’t come here. 他通常不来这儿。
She doesn’t always come late. 她并非总是迟到。(不能说 always doesn’t)
He is sometimes not satisfied with my work. 他有时对我的工作不满意。
副词位置对句意的影响
有时副词位置的不同会导致句子意义的改变。如:
Tom alone is coming. 只有汤姆要来。(alone 位于被修饰的名词或代词后,意为“只有”)
Tom is coming alone. 汤姆将一个人来。(alone 在此修饰动词come,意为“独自”)
Only I kissed her last night. 昨晚只有我吻了她(即别人没吻她)。
I only kissed her last night. 昨晚我只是吻了她(即没干别的事)。
I kissed only her last night. 昨晚我吻的只有她(即没吻过别人)。
I kissed her only last night [last night only]. 我只是在昨晚才吻了她(即其他时候未吻过)。
They secretly decided to leave the town. 他们秘密决定离开这个城市。
They decided to leave the town secretly. 他们决定秘密地离开这个城市。
He answered the question foolishly. 他对这个问题作了愚蠢的回答。
He foolishly answered the question. 他愚蠢地回答了这个问题。
Clearly he didn’t say so. 显然他没有这样说。(clearly 修饰句子,意为“显然”)
He didn’t say so clearly. 他说得没有那么清楚。(clearly 修饰动词 say,意为“清楚”)
副词的主要句法功能:
1. 用作状语。如:
He speaks English very well. 他英语说得很好。
I often get up at six in the morning. 我经常是在早晨6点钟起床。
He went home yesterday. / Yesterday he went home. 他昨天回家了。
2. 用作表语。如:
I’ll be back in five minutes. 我五分钟就回来。
I must be off now. 我现在得走了。
Is the radio on or off? 收音机是开着的还是关着的?
在一般情况下,作表语时不用副词而用形容词:
误:He looks very angrily.
正:He looks very angry. 他看上去很生气。
误:Mr. Smith is very carefully.
正:Mr. Smith is very careful. 史密斯先生很仔细。
英语中可用作表语的副词主要是表地点的副词以及某些与介词同形的副词,常见的有here, there, up, down, away, nearby, back, in, home, ahead, upstairs, downstairs, off, through, on, over 等。而且这些副词只能用于连系动词be 后作表语,而不用于其他连系动词后作表语,如:
误:He seems here. / He seems away.
正:He is here. / He is away.
3. 用作宾语。如:
It’s hot in here. 这里面很热。
It’s not far from here. 从这儿去不远。
I’ll stay at home tonight. 今晚我将呆在家里。
副词用作宾语的用法十分有限,通常只用作介词宾语,并且只限于某些表示时间和地点的副词,而且不同的副词有不同的搭配特点,如 here和there 可与along, around, down, from, in, near, round, up 等介词连用,但通常不与介词to连用,如不说come to here, go to there 等(注:from here to there是例外)。
4用作宾语补足语。如:
Please ask him in, please. 请叫他进来。
I’m pleased to see you back. 看到你回来了我很高兴。
一般说来,只有能用作表语的副词才可用作宾语补足语。
5用作定语。如:
Is there anything on tonight? 今晚有什么活动吗?
The people there were very friendly. 那儿的人很友好。
在通常情况下,副词用作定语总是放在被修饰的名词或代词之后。

以下是小编为大家整理的rather than的用法总结,希望能帮助大家更好地认识rather than这个词组,提高英语水平。
rather than 的意思和用法:
conj.宁可 ... 也不愿;与其 ... 倒不如;而不是
prep.而非...;替代...
rather than 用法总结:
rather than 是一个并列连词,用法比较复杂,现归纳如下:
1. rather than 不与would连用时,表示客观事实,意为“是……而不是……;与其……不如……”。它连接的并列成分可以是名词、代词、形容词、介词(短语)、动名词、分句、不定式、动词等。现分述如下: (1) 连接两个名词或代词
He is an explorer rather than a sailor. 与其说他是一个海员,不如说他是一个探险者。 You rather than I are going to go camping. 是你而不是我要去要野营。
2. rather than 与would 连用时,构成“would rather...than...”句式,意思是“宁愿……而不愿……”,表示主观愿望,即在两者之中选择其一。例如:
She'd rather die than lose the children. 她宁愿死也不愿失去孩子们。
注意:rather than 连接两个名词或代词作主语时,谓语动词应与rather than 前面的名词或代词在人称和数上保持一致。 (2) 连接两个形容词
The sweater she bought was beautiful rather than cheap. 与其说她买的这件羊毛衫便宜不如说它漂亮。
(3) 连接两个介词(短语)或动名词
We will have the meeting in the classroom rather than in the great hall. 我们是在教室里开会,不是在大厅里。
She enjoys singing rather than dancing. 她喜欢唱歌,而不喜欢跳舞。 (4) 连接两个分句
We should help him rather than he should help us. 是我们应该帮助他而不是他应该帮助我们。 (5) 连接两个不定式
I decided to write rather than (to) telephone. 我决定写信而不打电话。
注意:rather than 后接不定式时,不定式可以带to,也可以不带to, 如上句。但rather than位于句首时,则只能接不带to 的不定式。如:Rather than allow the vegetables to go bad, he sold them at half price. 他唯恐蔬菜烂掉,把它们以半价卖掉了。 (6) 连接两个动词
He ran rather than walked. 他是跑来的,而不是走来的。
注意:这里rather than 后用了walked,而没有用walk,表示客观事实,而不是主观愿望。如果换成walk,则作“宁愿……而不愿 ……”解。 would rather的用法
一、would rather意思是“宁愿、宁可、更、最好、还是为好”,后接动词原形,常省略为’d rather,表示优先选择的一种方式
其否定形式是would rather not do sth。would rather没有人称和数的变化,所有的人称一律用would rather。
“would rather+动词原形”是英语中常见的一个惯用句式,美国英语中多用had rather。would (had)在此决无“过去”之意,它是一个情态助动词,且无词性、时态变化。 例 Mr Li would rather not listen to rock music. 李先生不愿意听摇滚音乐。
If you’d rather be alone, we’ll all leave here. 如果你宁愿独自呆着,那我们都离开这儿。
He’d rather work in the countryside. 她宁可到农村去工作。
You would rather stay at home and do some reading this evening. 今晚你最好呆在家中读点书。
二、如果在两者中进行取舍,表示“宁愿……而不愿……,与其……宁可……”的意思时,则可用would rather…than…或would…rather than…的句型
例 I would rather watch TV at home than go to the cinema. 我宁可在家看电视而不愿去看电影。
The children would walk there rather than take a bus. 孩子们宁愿步行去那里而不愿乘公共汽车。
请注意 1) would rather…than…/would…rather than…也可以颠倒为:rather
than…would…。Would(rather)和than后都接不带to的动词不定式,若选用的动词相同,那么than 后的动词可以省略。
例 I would rather have noodles than rice. 我宁愿吃面条也不吃米饭。 He would rather drink wine than beer. 他喜欢喝红葡萄酒而不喜欢喝啤酒。 Rather than work in such bad condition, he would give up. 与其在这样差的条件下工作,他宁愿放弃。
2)使用would rather…than…句型时要注意“平行结构”,即在than 的前后要用两个同类的词或词组,如两个名词、两个不定式、两个介词短语等。
例
I would rather talk with his mother than with his father. 我宁愿和他妈说话而不愿和他爸说话。
I would rather go to work by bike than by bus. 我宁愿骑自行车也不愿乘公共汽车去上班。
三、在疑问句式中,would rather 与would rather…than…中的would要放在主语之前 例 Would you rather stay here or go home? 你愿意呆在这里,还是回家? Which would you rather have, apples or bananas? 你喜欢吃苹果还是香蕉? Would you rather read a novel than read a poem?你宁愿看小说而不愿朗读诗歌吗? 四、would rather+从句,是一个常用的虚拟语气句型 Would rather+从句,谓语一般用过去时来表示现在或将来。其意为“宁愿……,还是…… 好些”“一个人宁愿另一个人做某事”。引导从句的that常省略。在谈到过去的动作时,谓语则用过去完成时。
例 John wants to see me today. I would rather he came to tomorrow than today. 约翰今天想去看我。我宁愿他明天来看我而不是今天。(句中came不是表示过去而是表示将来)
We’d rather he paid us the money tomorrow. 我们宁愿他明天付给我们那笔钱。 Don’t come tomorrow. I’d rather you came next weekend. 明天别来。我希望你下周末来。
请注意 1) 如果谈到过去的动作,也就是表示过去已经发生的事情在选择上不恰当。此时,主句一般为I had rather ,其(that)从句则用过去完成时。 例 Would rather you had not done that. 我真希望你没有做那件事。
2)如果只涉及主语本人而不涉及另一个人,则would rather之后不接that从句而接have done结构。
例 I would rather have gone to the theatre than stayed home night. 我真希望昨天晚上去看了戏而不是呆在家里。 He would rather be poor than have got money by dishonest methods. 他宁可穷也不愿意用不诚实的手段获取金钱。
Henry would rather that his girlfriend worked in the same department as he does.亨利希望他的女朋友和他在一个部门工作。
五、would rather/sooner和prefer/would prefer的区别 would rather和would sooner之间一般没有区别,但经常接触到的是would rather。
例Tom would rather/sooner read than talk. 汤姆宁可读书而不愿谈天。
Tom prefers reading to talking.汤姆喜欢读书而不喜欢谈天。
请注意 1)would rather后跟不带to的不定式+than+不带 to的不定式,而prefer后跟动名词+to+动名词。有时prefer后面也可跟名词,而在would rather之后要求只带动词原形。
例 He prefers wine to beer.= He would rather drink wine than beer. 他喜欢喝红葡萄酒而不喜欢喝啤酒。
I prefer tennis to golf.= I’d rather play tennis than golf. 我喜欢打网球而不喜欢打高尔夫球。 2)某些 prefer+名词的情况不能用 would rather完全确切地表达出来:He prefers dogs to cats.(他喜欢狗而不喜欢猫。)和 He would rather have dogs than cats.(他宁可养狗而不愿养猫。)很明显,这两句的意思并不完全相同。 3) would rather+不带to的不定式有时可代替 would prefer+带 to的不定式。 例 I’d rather fly than go by sea.=I’d prefer to fly. 我宁愿乘飞机也不愿乘船。 这两个结构后面带名词时情况也一样: 例 —Would you like some gin?
—I’d prefer a coffee.=I’d rather have coffee than gin. —您想喝点杜松子酒吗?
—我想喝点咖啡。/我想喝点咖啡,不想喝杜松子酒。
4)would rather/sooner和would prefer后面都可跟完成式,但后者带to。
例 We went by sea but I’d rather have gone by air=I’d prefer to have gone by air. 我们是乘船去的,可我本想乘飞机去。(我愿意乘飞机去,可我的愿望未能实现。)这和 would like+不定式的完成式有点相似,would like+带to 的不定式的完成式也表示未能实现的愿望。

rather than的意思是:宁可...也不愿(与其...倒不如,而不是),有并列的意思,是根据句子的意思来解释的。下面小编给大家带来关于rather than的相关知识,供大家参考。
一)用作连词
用作连词,相当于but not,意为“而不”、“不是……(而是)”、“与其……(不如)”,前后连接的成分应该是平行的。如:
He ran rather than walked. 他不是在走而是在跑。
He is a writer rather than a teacher. 与其说他是教师还不如说他是作家。
You are doing this for yourself rather than for others. 你做这件事不是为别人而是为你自己。
It was what he meant rather than what he said. 这是他的意思,而不是他说的话。
二)用作介词
用作介词时,也表示but not,其意为“而不”、“不是……(而是)”、“与其……(不如)”,正如一般介词要后接动名词作宾语一样,rather than后也可接动名词作宾语。如:
I decided to write a cheque rather than using the last of my cash, 我决定开张支票而不把现金用光。
三)特别说明
由于既可视为并列连词也可视为介词,所以连接不定式时,后面一个不定式可带to或不带to(视为准并列连词时),也可用动名词(视为介词时)。如:
I decided to stay at home rather than (to) go [going] to the cinema. 我宁愿呆在家里也不愿去看电影。
四)语法上的提醒
1. 若 rather than 位于句首,其后的不定式通常不带to(也可用动名词)。如:
Rather than go there by air, I’d take the slowest train. 我宁可乘最慢的火车去也不愿坐飞机去。
Rather than waste [wasting] your time doing it yourself, why don’t you call in a builder? 你为什么宁愿浪费时间自己去干而不去请一个包工的呢?
2. 连接两个成分作主语时,其谓语动词的数通常与前面一个主语保持一致。如:
The teacher rather than the students is to blame. 应受责备的是老师而不是学生。
