形容词的比较级（2）

上一模块我们学习了单音节形容词和部分双音节形容词的比较级构成形式和比较级句子的表达方式。那么，还有部分双音节和多音节形容词，它们的比较级是如何构成的呢？也是在词尾加-er 吗？不是的，一般这类形容词的比较级是在其前加 more 构成。例如：

1) Football is _________ than baseball in most countries. 

在很多国家，足球比棒球更流行。

2) Nothing is _________ than playing tennis. 

没有什么比打网球更令人愉快的了。

3) It’s ________ to practise in winter (than in summer).

冬季训练（要比夏季训练）难度更大。

英语中的副词该如何使用呢？应该放在句中的什么地方呢？一般来说，副词主要用来修饰动词、形容词、副词或其他结构。例如：

1) She plays the piano _______. 

她钢琴弹得很糟。

2) I’m ______ tired after last night’s tennis match. 

昨晚网球赛后我真的很累。

3) The teacher speaks very ______ and _______. 

这位老师讲得很慢、很仔细。

注意副词与形容词在位置及功能上的不同，试比较： 

1) The teacher speaks _______. 

这位老师讲得很仔细。

2) The teacher is _______. 

这位老师很细心。

不难发现，副词修饰动词时通常出现在行为动词（实义动词）后，而形容词通常位于系动词之后或名词之前。
