比較級前面的冠詞使用問題 在通常情況下,英語的比較級前不用冠詞。如: A dog is usually bigger than a cat. 狗一般比貓要大。 Any changes would be very difficult to make so it’s better to leave well alone. 做任何改動都很困難,還是見好就收吧。 但是,在某些特殊情況下,有時也用冠詞,具體說來,要注意以下幾點: 1. 當(dāng)比較級后接名詞時,比較級前可能用冠詞,此時的冠詞不是修飾比較級,而是修飾其后的名詞。如: He emigrated to They stood on tiptoe to get a better look at the parade. 他們踮起腳以便把游行場面看得更清楚些。 He is changing his job because he wants a bigger income. 他在調(diào)換工作因為他想增加收入。 I couldn’t have got to the meeting on time—unless I had caught an earlier train. 我不可能及時趕到會場,除非我趕上了較早一班火車。 但是,若受比較級修飾的名詞為表泛指的復(fù)數(shù)名詞或不可數(shù)名詞,則仍不用冠詞。如: Please devote more time to your work. 請在工作上多花點時間。 In the past, people had fewer expectations. 過去,人們的希求要少一些。 The manager listened to the worker’s demand for more money. 經(jīng)理聽取了工人們關(guān)于提高工錢的要求。 2. 當(dāng)要特指兩者中“較(更)……”時,比較級前通常要帶定冠詞,此時可視為比較級后省略了有關(guān)的名詞或代詞one,即定冠詞實為修飾被省略的名詞或代詞one。如: the elder of the two brothers 兩兄弟中年紀(jì)大的一個 Which of the two methods is the better? 這兩種方法哪一種更好? Of the two coats, the black one is the better. 在這兩件外套中,這件黑色的更好些。 3. 在比較級前用the表示程度(通常有表示原因、理由或條件的短語或從句)。如: If that is the case, all the better. 如果事實是那樣,那就更好了。 I feel all the better for that swim. 游泳之后,我感覺更舒服了。 4. 用于“the+比較級,the+比較級”,表示“越……越……”。如: The more you eat, the fatter you get. 吃得越多,身體越胖。 The more I see of him, the less I like him. 我越是見他,越是不喜歡他。 The more expensive petrol becomes, the less people drive. 汽油越貴,開車的人就越少。 The more you know, the more you’ll realize how little you know. 你知道得越多,你就越會體會到你知道得那么有限。 5. 當(dāng)by far用于修飾比較級且置于其前時,比較級前要用the。如: It’s quicker by far to go by train. 坐火車去要快得多。 This applicant is by far the better than that one. 這個申請者遠比那一個好。 注:與比較級連用,通常要放在比較級之后,若放在比較級前,則比較級通常應(yīng)帶有冠詞。如: He is cleverer by far than her. It’s by far the quicker to go by train. |
