语法填空之形容词和副词
【解题技巧】
当括号中所给词是形容词或副词，且空格处需要的仍是形容词或副词时，要根据语境，理解句意，若该词意思不变，逻辑上讲得通，就很可能填该词的比较级(或最高级)；若需要用与该词意义相反的词逻辑才通顺的，就要在该词前加表示否定或相反意义的前缀。注意：要善于分析语境，辨别省略了than...的隐性比较级。具体解题技巧如下：
第一步：分析结构，确定所给词在句子中作定语还是状语。
第二步：根据结构、语境或句子意义确定是填比较级还是最高级。
【考点】形容词作定语，形容词和副词的比较等级或最高级，词义比较等。
1、形容词与副词的相互转换
例1：…we drank together and talked (merry) till far into the night.
例2：He was very (happily) about his purchase and the price was reasonable.
2．形容词、副词的比较级或最高级
例3：…one of the (bad) gift choices I ever made was for my high school English teacher, Ms Chen.
例4：Factories and business lose millions of dollars every year because of smokers. Smokers have (high) medical bills.
3. 加前缀或后缀转变词性或词义
例5：With the problem solved, I felt proud of my achievement. (fortunate), I then noticed that I had just 10 minutes left to complete.
例6：…I don’t know if he planted the poem next to the failing grade to (soft) the blow, but it worked.
核心提示: 注意归纳由形容词或副词加上前缀或后缀后演变的各种词形变化,做题时仍然以语境分析为主。
4、以-ing和-ed结尾的形容词的用法
例7：Each day we were late for school, and I remember the teacher got very . (annoy)
例8：Games are often (excite) and dramatic, but they generally aren’t very intellectual.
考查比较级的修饰语
例9：Tim drove very carefully, but John drove more carefully than Tim did.
核心提示: 比较级前可用much, far, a lot,等表示“得多”，用a bit, a little, rather, some, any 等表示“一点”，用even, far, still等表示“更加”等；在最高级前可用by far, the very, much the 等修饰。通过这些修饰语，也可以判断形容词或副词该用比较级还是最高级。
