3.Our new house is very ________ for me as I can get to the office in five minutes. A. convenient B. comfortable C. natural D. helpful (A)
convenient是一个非人称性形容词,因此在用到这个词的时候,句子的主语只能是表示事物的名词,不能用人来作主语。或者用it is convenient for sb.的句型。如: A computer is a convenient tool when we make designs. 在设计的时候计算机是一个非常方便的工具。
If it is convenient for you, I will come to see you on Tuesday. 如果方便的话,我星期二来看你。
6.2 副词及其基本用法(副词主要用来修饰动词,形容词,副词或其他结构。 )
就是修饰动词、形容词、其它副词或全句,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。如:
It’s raining heavily. 雨下得很大。(副词heavily修饰谓语动词)
It’s a rather interesting job. 这是一份相当有趣的工作。(副词rather修饰形容词interesting)
She speaks English very well. 她的英语说得很好。(副词very修饰副词well) This is just what he said. 这正是他所说的。(副词just修饰what he said)
注:here, there, in, out, away, abroad等少数副词也可以作表语;here, there, home, abroad, below等表示地点或方位的词及today, tomorrow, yesterday, back, out等表示时间或动词方向词还可以作定语。如:
Tom isn’t here. 汤姆不在这里。(here作表语)
The people there were very kind to us. 那里的人对我们很友好。(副词there作定语,修饰people)
6.2.1副词的构成
1.许多副词,尤其是情状副词,是由形容词加ly或其变体构成的。 规则1:一般直接加ly。brave→bravely; quiet→quietly
He was standing there quietly and smiling at me. 他静静地站在那里,冲着我微笑。
规则2:以ble, gle或ple作结尾的,去掉e加y。 able→ably; simple→simply 规则3:以子音+y作结尾的,将y改成i,再加ly。
angry→angrily; busy→busily; easy→easily; happy→happily I was busily cooking the fish in the kitchen. 我正在厨房忙着煮鱼。
He took the fish and left laughing happily. 他拿着鱼,快乐地笑着离开了。
但dry, sly后面还可直接加ly。 dry→dryly (drily) ; sly→slyly (slily) 规则4:以ll作结尾的,只加y。 full→fully; dull→dully
规则5:以ful为字尾的,直接加ly。 useful→usefully ; harmful→harmfully
规则6:以ue或ole结尾的,去掉e加ly。 true→truly ; due→duly ; 但:whole→wholly
I wholly believe what you said. 我完全相信你说的。
规则7:以ic为字尾的,加ally。 heroic→heroically ; automatic→automatically ; democratic→democratically
但public后面直接加ly。 public→publicly
特别警示:有些以ly作结尾的字不是副词,而是形容词,如: friendly(友好的),lovely(可爱的)。 2.有些副词不以ly作结尾,如:
quite(非常),perhaps(或许),then(那时)。 He is a quite lovely boy with wings. 他是一个相当可爱的长着翅膀的男孩子。
3.有些字如high, low, near, far, fast, hard, early, late, little, much, enough, pretty,副词与形容词同形,但意义不一定相同。 She is a pretty girl. 她是个漂亮的姑娘。
pretty(漂亮的),用作形容词。 She is pretty clever. 她相当聪明。
pretty(很),用作副词。
He said that I was a pretty girl and my cooking smelt pretty great. 他说我是个漂亮姑娘,而且我的煮的菜闻起来相当棒。 4.在名词或形容词的字头加a。如 head→ahead way→away side→aside loud→aloud。
6.名词字尾加wise, ward, wards, way。 clock→clockwise back→backward(s) north→northward(s) side→sideways half→halfway 6.2.2副词的位置: 1) 在动词之前。
2) 在be动词、助动词之后。
3) 多个助动词时,副词一般放在第一个助动词后。 注意:
a. 大多数方式副词位于句尾,但宾语过长,副词可以提前,以使句子平衡。 We could see very clearly a strange light ahead of us. b. 方式副词well, badly糟、坏,hard等只放在句尾。 He speaks English well. 6.2.3副词的排列顺序:
1) 时间,地点副词,小单位的在前,大单位在后。
2) 方式副词,短的在前,长的在后,并用and或but等连词连接。 Please write slowly and carefully.
3) 多个不同副词排列:程度+地点+方式+时间副词。(巧记:成地方时) 注意:副词very 可以修饰形容词,但不能修饰动词。 改错:(错) I very like English.
(对) I like English very much.
注意:副词enough要放在形容词的后面,形容词enough放在名词前后都可。 I don't know him well enough.
There is enough food for everyone to eat. There is food enough for everyone to eat. 【考点1】副词的位置 【考例】

3) 词表示地点的副词常放在句末;表示确定时间的副词放在句首或句末;表示方式的副词词通常放在“动词(+宾语)”之后,也可放在其它位置;同时有表示时间、地点和方式的副词时,其顺序一般为:方式+地点+时间。 【高考押题】
