very与much的用法
very与much虽然都是表示程度的副词,但用法不同,现举例略述如下 :
一、修饰形容词和副词,用very;修饰动词用much。例如:
(1)In his early childhood, Einstein did not seem to be
very bright. 爱因斯坦在童年时期似乎不很聪明。
(2)I should much like your opinion. 我很想听听你的意见。
二、修饰原级形容词和副词用very;修饰比较级和最高级形容词和副词用much。例如:
(3)It is very hot today.今天天气很热。
(4)He is much the best mechanic in the factory. 他是该厂最好的机修工。
有时为了强调,very也可以修饰最高级形容词。例如:
(5)He is the very best mexhanic in the factory. 他是该厂顶好的机修工。
三、修饰现在分词转化来的形容词一般用very;修饰过去分词宜用much。例如:
(6)This film is very interesting.这部电影很有趣。
(7)I am much interested in water-skiing. 我对滑水运动很感兴趣。 但是,当过去分词已完全转化为形容词时,也可用very修饰。
例如:
(8)I am very tired.我非常疲倦。 此外,须要注意的是very不仅是副词,而且有时还是形容词,意思是“正是……”例如:
(9)This is the very book I want to borrow. 这正是我要借的那本书。
练习 用very或much填空。
(1)This lisson is____easy.It is___easier than that we
read last week.
(2)She is___the best singer or in the school.
(3)He is___taller than his sister.
(4)The boy in the next room is___naughty.He
often makes noise late at night.This troubles me___.
(5)This is the____place where he died
for the country.
Key:(1)very,much;(2)much;(3)much;(4)very,much;(5)very.
