拇指英语说,分享英语学习心得,技巧和方法。让英语学习变得更有趣,更简单。
在英语学习中,词汇量的大小是衡量英语水平的重要标志。通常词汇量越大,运用英语的能力就越强,反之亦然。许多英语偏弱的学生将词汇的学习与记忆比作“拦路虎”,以至谈虎色变,毫无信心。因此,有意识地学习词汇策略将可以帮助学生更科学,高效,简单地积累大量词汇,从而达到事半功倍的效果。本词汇积累策略系列,将会从近义词(synonyms),反义词(antonyms),前缀(prefixes),后缀(suffixes),同音异义词(homophones)等角度来探讨词汇的学习和积累。本系列,适合小学中高年级及初中学生学习。
Adverbs (副词):
在句子中,副词可以用来形容动词,表示该动作的方式。今天,我们来一起看看副词的构成方式。
- 很多副词是由形容词+ly 构成的,比如:
The dog made a sudden movement.
The dog suddenly moved.
sudden adj. ------ suddenly adv.
2. 当形容词以-le结尾时, 我们把字母"e" 变成 "y" 构成相应的副词,比如:
The chair is very comfortable . Are you sitting comfortably ?
comfortable adj. ----- comfortably adv.
3. 当形容词以-y结尾, 我们把字母"y" 改成"i" 再加上 "ly"构成副词,比如:
The greedy woman looked at the money belt.
The woman greedily looked at the money belt.
greedy adj. ------ greedily adv.
Practice (练一练):
Write the Adverb form of these adjectives:
Adjective Adverb
- beautiful __________
- legal __________
- usual __________
- probable __________
- loud __________
- curious ___________
- nice ___________
- hungry ___________
解析:
这些单词里,beautiful, legal, usual, loud, curious, nice 都属于上述的第一种情况,即形容词变副词,直接在形容词尾加-ly构成。 probable 属于第二种情况,把最后的字母 "e" 变成 "y" 构成副词。hungry 属于第三种情况,把最后的字母"y" 变成"i" 再加上ly 构成副词。
