第7章 副词
副词是指在句子中表示行为或状态特征的词,用以修饰动词、形容词、其他副词或全句,表示时间、地点、程度、方式等概念。
一、副词在意义和形式上具有自己的特征
意义上的特征
在意义上,副词用以说明事件发生的时间、地点,行为的方式、程度,说话者的态度、观点。副词具有明显的修饰和强调功能。
(1)以-ly结尾的副词
大多数副词以形容词直接加-ly构成。这些副词主要用以描述如何地、怎样地。
frequently频繁地
constantly经常地
rapidly迅速地
calmly沉着地
happily高兴地
anxiously焦虑地
注意:
形容词加-ly变副词的规律
①许多副词都是在形容词后直接加后缀-ly构成的。
careful→carefully,quick→quickly,safe→safely,slow→slowly等。
②以-le结尾的形容词需去掉e再加y。
gentle→gently,possible→possibly,comfortable→comfortably等。
③以-y结尾的形容词把y改为i,再加-ly。
easy→easily,happy→happily,heavy→heavily,busy→busily,lucky→luckily等。
特例:shy的副词形式为shyly。
(2)与形容词同形的副词
在英语中有很多形容词和副词是同形的。
late(adj.)已故的、(ad.)迟到
high(adj.)高的、(ad.)高
firm(adj.)稳固的、(ad.)稳固地
early(adj.)早的、(ad.)早
hard(adj.)硬的、(ad.)努力地
straight(adj.)直的、(ad.)径直
fast(adj.)快的、(ad.)快
long(adj.)长的、(ad.)长时间地
enough(adj.)足够的、(ad.)足够
low(adj.)低的、(ad.)低
slow(adj.)慢的、(ad.)慢
(3)其他情况
有些词原形既是形容词又是副词,但在加-ly之后又可以构成另外的副词,这两种形式的副词其意义既有区别又有联系。
hard 努力
hardly 几乎不
near 附近
nearly 几乎
high 高
highly 高度地
most 大多数
mostly 多部分地
deep 深入地下
deeply 深深地
wide 嘴、眼等张得大大地
widely 广泛地
late 迟到
lately 最近、近来
close 靠近
closely 密切地
注意:
(1)加-ly的副词往往具有比喻意义。
The picture is hanging high on the back wall.
这幅画高高地挂在后墙上。
Playing with fire is highly dangerous.
玩火是高度危险的。
(2)有些副词与加-ly的副词在修饰动词时基本相同。
