1. 当most表示大多数时,之前不加the, 并且有两种形式来表示大多数,分别 为:most + 名词,
如:most people, most Indian tribes;most + of + 限定词 + 名词或代词,如:most of his paintings,most of us, most of the modern artists2. most有时意思等同于very, 此时most之前用不定冠词,
如:
a most lovely girl, a most impressive proposal
例题:
(1)
The most substances expand in volume when they are heated.
A B C D
答案:A
应改为:Most
解释:most只有在表示形容词最高级作定语时需加定冠词,此句表示“大多数”,没必要加the. Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the crust of the Earth, but the nonmetals
A B C
oxygen and silicon are more still abundant.
D
考点:程度副词
答案:D
应改为:still more
解释:程度副词still修饰比较级more时,应置于其前几点参考规则:
1. 多数副词放在修饰的动词之后,若动词有宾语则放在宾语之后,如:She sings very well.I met your uncle(动词的宾语) just now.
I met just now your uncle (错)
2. 副词修饰形容词、介词短语、副词时常放在被修饰成分之前,如:These two are only slightly different.
right after this, very smoothly
当然,副词enough是一个例外,要放在修饰成分的后面,如:I am not good enough to do this job. (对)
I am not enough good to do this job. (错)
3. 表示频率的副词常放在实意动词之前,be动词之后,如:He often/ always/ rarely/seldom/never play(实意动词) tennis. 、He is always here at 8'clock. (be动词之后)
4. 部分副词的位置没有一定的规定,原则上接近被修饰词即可,如:only, even, still, perhaps, etc.
