高考重点要求

1.掌握形容词、副词比较级、最高级的常用句型及用法

2.掌握形容词、副词的原级、比较级和最高级修饰语及倍数的比较表达。

3.注意多外形容词修饰同一名词的前后顺序。

4.分清常用同义与近义形容词在表达中的语义差别。

1.定语。

在名词前做定语，为最常见用法。请注意多个形容词(含其它起形容词作用的词)做前置定语的顺序。

"县官行令杀国才。"这一句就概述了形容词顺序问题。即：

限(冠词[物主代词、指示代词]数词等)观 (描绘) 形(大小、形状等) 龄 (年龄、新旧等)色(色彩)国(国籍、出处等)材(材料、功用等)

做后置定语。修饰由不定代词no ,any, some ，every和one,thing等构成的复合词或形容词短语。

2.表语。一定要注意系动词的出现情况。这是一个高考热点问题。

常见系动词有：be

变化系词： become, get ,turn, grow, go

保持系词： keep ,remain, stay

感观系词： look, smell , taste, feel, sound,appear , seem ,prove etc.

3.形容词作状语，表状况、原因、结果等。这也是应注意的一点。

He went to bed , cold and hungry.

4.做宾补。

N：①某些以a 开始的形容词只做表语，不做定语。

afraid, alike, alone, asleep ,awake，alive

②某些表身体健康状况的形容词只能做表语,不做定语

well, ill faint

③某些以-ly 结尾的词是形容词而不是副词。

friendly, lively, lovely, lonely, likely, deadly, orderly 等。

④复合形容词的形式问题。
