大多数形容词和副词有三个等级： 原级、比较级、最高级。 一、构成 1. 构成的不规则变化 : eg. good / well – better – best bad / badly – worse – worst many / much – more – most little – less – least far – farther / further – farthest/ furthest Grammar: 形容词和副词的 比较级和最高级

2. 构成的规则变化 : 1) 单音节词和少数双音节词 一般在词尾后加 -er 或 -est. 如： cold – colder – coldest nice — nicer – nicest 2) 重读闭音节词末尾只有一个辅音字母 时, 先双写这个辅音字母, 再加 -er 或 -est 。 如 : big – bigger – biggest thin – thinner – thinnest

3) 以 “ 辅音字母 + y” 结尾的双音节词， 先改 y 为 i, 再加 -er 或 -est 。如： easy – easier – easiest happy – happier – happiest 4) 多音节词和部分双音节词在词 前加 more 或 most 。如： delicious – more delicious – most delicious interesting – more interesting – most interesting

比较级规则变化口诀： 比较级，要变化，一般词尾加 er 。 (long- longer) 词尾若有哑音 e, 直接加 r 就可以。 (nice-nicer) 重读闭音节， 单辅音字母要双写。 (hot- hotter) 辅音字母若加 y, 记得把 y 变为 i 。 (happy- happier)

二、用法 1. 比较级表示两者 ( 人或事物 ) 的比较。 eg. I am taller than Tom. My dress is more beautiful than hers. 2. 最高级表示三者或三者以上 ( 人或事物 ) 的比较, 其中有一个在某一 方面超过其他几个时, 用最高级。最高级的前面一般要加定冠词 the, 后面可带 of ( in ) 短语来说明比较的范围。 如： She is the youngest in the class. Jason is the tallest of the three. Whose handwriting is the best of all?
