形容词比较等级使用“八戒”

形容词比较等级使用“八戒”

一戒比较不在同类事物之间进行

　　[误] My cake is bigger than you.

　　[正] My cake is bigger than yours.

　　[析] my cake不能同you相比较，他们不是同类事物。

　　二戒不合逻辑

　　[误] Li Lei is taller than any boy in his class.

　　[正] Li Lei is taller than any other boy in his class.

　　[析] any boy包括Li Lei，故需加other，以排除其自身。

　　三戒双重比较

　　[误] He is more stronger than I.

　　[正] He is stronger than I.

　　[析] stronger本身就已经是比较级，故去掉more。

　　四戒滥用比较级前的修饰语

　　[误] Lesson Two is very easier than Lesson One.

　　[正] Lesson Two is much easier than Lesson One.

　　[析] 一般来说，much，a little，a lot，ever，still等词可用来修饰比较级，表示比较的程度。而very, so, too 及quite等一般用来修饰形容词或副词的原形。

　　五戒不合习惯

　　[误] My books are more than yours.

　　[正] I have more books than you.

　　[析] 病句受汉语影响，而英语中more一般不作表语。

　　六戒不对称

　　[误] It's much better to pick apples than have classes.

　　[正] It's much better to pick apples than to have classes.

　　[析] 在比较级中，than前后的比较项应对称, 即前面用不定式后面也应用不定式。

　　七戒最高级后表范围的介词in和of混用

　　[误] This one is the nicest in all.

　　[正] This one is the nicest of all.

　　[析] in后常接表单位、组织等概念的单数名词。of后常接复数名词，指前面提到的同类人或物，也可构成"of the+基数词"、 "of all"等结构。

　　八戒用as...as, not as/so...as做比较时，中间用比较级

　　[误] This mooncake isn't as nicer as that one.

　　[正] This mooncake isn't as (so)nice as that one.

　　[误] I think Chinese is so interesting as English.

　　[正] I think Chinese is as interesting as English.

　　[析] 用as...as, not as/so...as做比较时，中间要用原级。否定句中，前一个as可换成so，但肯定句中不可换。
