1、高考资源网() 您身边的高考专家比较结构考点典型陷阱题分析1. How beautifully she sings! I have never heard _ voice.A. a betterB. a bestC. the betterD. the best 【陷阱】容易误选D,认为最高级前要用定冠词。【分析】其实此题最佳答案为A,该句可视为I have never heard a better voice than her voice 之省略,全句句意为“她唱得多好啊!我从未听过她这么好的声音”。请再看以下类似的实例:He is fine, never better. 他很好,比以往任何时
2、候都好。This bird is really lovely. Ive never seen a finer one. 这只鸟真可爱,我从未见过这样好看的鸟。比较以下试题,情形也大致相同:(1) “Ive never found a better job.” “_.”A. I dont think soB. Too badC. CongratulationsD. Dont worry答案选C,Ive never found a better job可视为 Ive never found a better job than this job 之省略,句意为:我从来没有找到比这份工作更好的工作,即
3、这是我所找到的最好的工作。(2) “What do you think of the service here?” “Oh, _. We couldnt have found a better place.”A. too badB. sorryC. wonderfulD. impossible答案选 C。We couldnt have found a better place 可视为We couldnt have found a better place than this place,其意为“我们不可能找到一个比这个地方更好的地方”,即“这是我们所能找到的最好的地方”。(3) Boris h
4、as brains. In fact, I doubt whether anyone in the class has _IQ.A. a highB. a higherC. the higherD. the highest答案选B,句意为“我怀疑班上有没有哪个人比他智商更高”,即“我认为他可能是班上智商最高的”。(4) . How cold it is! Weve never had _ this winter.A. the colder dayB. a cold dayC. the coldest dayD. a colder day答案选D。句意为“今年冬天我们还从未遇上过这样冷的日子”。
5、2. Professor White has written some short stories, but he is _ known for his plays. A. the bestB. moreC. betterD. the most【陷阱】容易误选D。【分析】此题首先不宜选B或D,因为 well known 的比较级和最高级通常是 better known和best known,有时也可以是 more well known 和 most well known,但通常不能是 more known 和 most known。至于是选A还是C,这就要看语境。由于句中涉及的只有 stori
6、es 和 plays 两个对象,故应选比较级。3. You are _ careful than your brother. You two cant do the work that needs care and skill. A. not moreB. no moreC. not lessD. no less【陷阱】容易误选A。【分析】要做对此题,首先要正确理解以下结构的含义:not more than = 不如no more than = 和一样不 (否定两者)not less than = 不如不 (即指不如 less 后形容词的反面)no less than = 和一样 (肯定两者)
7、比较以下各句的意思:You are more careful than he is. 你比他仔细。You are not more careful than he is. 你不如他仔细。You are no more careful than he is. 你和他一样不仔细。You are less careful than he is. 你不如他仔细(你比他粗心)。You are not less careful than he is. 你比他仔细(你不如他粗心)。You are no less careful than he is. 你和他一样仔细。通过以上分析,再结合句子语境,可知此题最
8、佳答案为B。4. “Oh, how fat he is!” “But I think he is _ than fat.”A. shortB. shorter C. more shortD. shortest【陷阱】容易误选B。认为 short为单音节形容词,故用-er构成比较级。【分析】其实正确答案应是C。要弄清此问题,得先从比较句型的两种不同类型说起:(1) 异类同质比较:即指两个不同的人或事物(异类)在同一方面(同质)进行比较。如:My room is smaller than yours. 我的房间比你的小。Our country is more powerful than their
9、s. 我们的国家比他们的国家更强大。(2) 同类异质比较:即指同一个人或事物(同类)在两个不同的方面(异质)进行比较,这类句子常译为“(更多的)是,而不是”、“与其不如”等。如:He was more lucky than clever.他是靠运气而不是靠聪明。She was mare surprised than angry. 她感到更多的是惊讶而不是生气。This is more a war movie than a western. 这更应当说是一部战争片,而不是西部片。按英语习惯,在进行同类异质比较时,只能用more构成比较级,不能用-er形式,即使是单音节词也是如此。精编陷阱题训练1

14、 much happier time11. This dress is prettier, but it costs _ that one.A. twice more thanB. twice as much asC. as much twice asD. twice so much as【答案与解析】1. 选B,由于是两个房间,即是两者比较,故宜用比较级,因此排除C和D;又由于两句之间没有连词,故不宜选A。注:若在空格前加上and 一词,则要选A。2. 选B。此题关键是要理解 Not at all 的意思。根据上文语境,Not at all 为 I am not satisfied at a
15、ll with his answer 之省略,即表示“我对他的回答一点也不满意”,既然如此,他的回答当然会是 It couldnt have been worse(不可能更糟)。3. 选 C,句意为“我的算术比琼差,但我的历史比她强”。注意句中的转折连词 but 及其后的 better。4. 选A,we couldnt have picked a worst day 的实际意思是 it is the worst day weve picked。 5. 选A,a better 为 a better one 之省略。另外,a better one(一个更好的)是与其前文“我知道这不是一个很适合的词
16、”相呼应的。6. 选A。根据空格后的than,排除B和D;根据语境,排除C。7. 选D。more 后不能比较级,故排除A;quite 除用于quite better外,不用于修饰比较,故排除B;very 不用修饰比较级,故排除C。8. 选A。若选B或C均不合事实;若选D,不合语法,因为few 后要接可数名词的复数形式。9. 选B。从句意看,空格处应填比较级bigger,因此排除A和C。选项B与D的区别是,一个用了不定冠词,一个用了定冠词,两者的区别是,不定冠词表泛指,定冠词表特指。10. 选D。由于是将有考试与没有考试作比较,所以应用比较级,不用最高级,由此排除A和C。选项B的错误在于用了more happier这样的双重比较级(即more后不能再加比较级)。11. 选B。修饰asas的副词应置于该结构之前。- 5 - 版权所有高考资源网
