下面我們給你舉一些例子比較亨利和蘇珊兩個(gè)人誰(shuí)老,誰(shuí)年輕,誰(shuí)胖,誰(shuí)瘦, 誰(shuí)高, 誰(shuí)矮等等. 每個(gè)句子我們念兩遍, 請(qǐng)你聽(tīng)一遍, 跟著老師重復(fù)一遍.
M: Henry is older; Susan is younger.
F: Henry is older; Susan is younger.
M: Henry is fatter; Susan is thinner.
F: Henry is fatter; Susan is thinner.
M: Henry is taller; Susan is shorter.
F: Henry is taller; Susan is shorter.
M: Henry is weaker; Susan is stronger.
F: Henry is weaker; Susan is stronger.
如果把 "亨利比較老; 蘇珊比較年輕 " 這句話簡(jiǎn)化為 "亨利比蘇珊老", 在英文里 就必須用 than, t-h-a-n, than 這個(gè)字; 整句話就是 Henry is older than Susan. 下面 我們來(lái)作換字練習(xí), 多學(xué)學(xué)這個(gè)句型. 首先老師念一個(gè)句子, 然后老師給你一個(gè) 新的比較級(jí)形容詞,請(qǐng)你把形容詞代換到原來(lái)的句子里. 每作完一句, 老師會(huì)念 出正確作法, 你自己比較一下看作對(duì)了沒(méi)有. 現(xiàn)在我們開(kāi)始.
M: Henry is older than Susan.
M: fatter
F: Henry is fatter than Susan.
M: weaker
F: Henry is weaker than Susan.
M: heavier
F: Henry is heavier than Susan.
M: busier
F: Henry is busier than Susan.
剛才那些句子都是以亨利為主詞, 下面這些句子是以蘇珊為主詞; 還是把她和 亨利作個(gè)比較, 比方 "蘇珊比亨利年輕" 等等. 還是請(qǐng)你跟剛才一樣作代換練習(xí).
M: Susan is younger than Henry.
M: thinner
F: Susan is thinner than Henry.
M: shorter
F: Susan is shorter than Henry.
M: stronger
F: Susan is stronger than Henry.
M: healthier
F: Susan is healthier than Henry.
現(xiàn)在我們?cè)賮?lái)學(xué)習(xí)形容詞比較級(jí). 首先由老師提出一個(gè)問(wèn)句, 接著他又提出一 個(gè)詞組作主詞, 請(qǐng)學(xué)生用這個(gè)主詞來(lái)回答問(wèn)題, 然后老師又提出一個(gè)詞組作受 詞, 請(qǐng)學(xué)生用 than 這個(gè)字把受詞用進(jìn)句子里. 首先我給你舉一個(gè)例子.
M: Which table is longer?
M: this table
F: This table is longer.
M: that one
F: This table is longer than that one.
