,taller
本身已是比较级,不需

所以选

p>
一、
much
修饰比较级
< br>
修饰比较是副词
much
的常见用法,
“
much +
比较级
”
的意思是<
/p>
“
更
……”“……
得多
”
。如:
It
’
s much colder
today than it was yesterday.
今天比昨天冷得多。
It was much worse than I
thought.
它比我想像的还要糟得多。
We will be a
much better football team next year.
明年我们将会成为一支更好的足球队。
二、
mu
ch
修饰最高级
much
修饰最高级应置于最高级前
的定冠词之前,
而不是之后。
“
muc
h + the +
最高级
”
的意<
/p>
思是
“
最最
……
”“
绝对是最
……”
。如:
This is
much the most difficult.
这是最最难的。
That
’
s much the
best plan.
那绝对是最好的计划。
Of the three
boys Nick is much the cleverest.
这三个男孩中,尼克最最聪明。
三、
mu
ch
修饰形容词的原级
much
修饰形容词原级的情形主要
见于那些由过去分词转化来的形容词。如:
I was much annoyed.
我很不高兴。
She
wasn
’
t much surprised.
她并不太惊讶。
注:
有个别非分词转化来的形容词有
时也可用
much
修饰,
但这种用法很
有限,
通常只见于
good,
different
等少数几个形容词。如:
I
don
’
t think this battery is
much good.
我并不认为这种电池非常好。
The new school
isn
’
t much different from
the old one.
新学校与老学校区别不太大。
四、
mu
ch
修饰副词
too
much too
为习语,其中的
much
修饰副词
too
;
much too
可视为
too
的加强说法,其语气
比单独用
t
oo
更强。如:
He spoke much too fast.
他说话说得太快了。
This is much
too heavy for you to lift.
这东西太重,你拿不起来。
注意:
much
too
与
too
much
词序不同,用法也不同。从句法功能上看,
much
too
的用法
与
too
相同,但比
too
的语气更强;而
too much
在用法上则与
much
< br>相同,但比
much
语
气更强。比较:
He drives much
too fast.
他开车开得太快了。
The shoes are
much too small for me.
这鞋子我穿太小了。
There is too much rain.
雨水太多了。
You have given me too much.
你已经给我太多了。
五、
much
修饰介词短语
much
主要用于修饰由
like,
in, to
等少数介词所构成的介词短语。如:
The baby
doesn
’
t look much like you.
这婴儿长得不大像你。
They
’
re very much
in love with each other.
他们彼此在热恋中。
Much to my surprise, she
did it by herself.
让我极为惊讶的是,这竟然是她自己做的。
六、
mu
ch
修饰动词
much
修饰动词时,
通常只用于否定句或疑问句中,
一般不能用于肯定句中
(除非前面有
very,
too, so
等之类的修饰语)
。如:
正:
She
doesn
’
t like him much.
(
用于否定句,故正确
)
正:
She
doesn
’
t much like him.
(
用于否定句,故正确
)
正:
Does she like
him much? (
用于疑问句,故正确
)
正:
Does she much like him?
(
用于疑问句,故正确
)
正:
She likes him
very [too, so] much.
(
其前有修饰语,故正确
)
注意以下误句:
误:
She likes him much. / She
much likes him. (
因为它用于肯定句,且其前没有修饰语,
故不正确
)
p>
但是,不带修饰语的
much
有时也能在肯
定句中修饰动词,但这通常只限于
admire, affect,
appreciate, dislike, enjoy, look
forward to, prefer, regret
等少数动词,且
much
通常只能放
在句中,不放在句末。如:
p>
We
much appreciate your invitation.
我们非常感激你的邀请。
We would much
prefer to be given money.
我们还是更喜欢有人给我们钱。
These factors
have much affected the building of nuclear plants.
这些因素极大地影响了
核电站的建立。
七、
mu
ch
修饰
as
much as
可视为习语,其意
为
“
虽然
”
,
用法与
though
相似。如:
Much as
I
’
d like to help, there
isn
’
t a lot I can do.
尽管我愿意帮忙,却没有很多事我能做。
Much as he
admired her looks and her
manners
,
he had no wish to
marry her.
虽说他很
欣赏她的外貌和仪态,他却无
心和她结婚。
< br>八、
much
修饰
the
same
much
修饰
the
same
,从表面上是加强了
the same
的语气,但实际上是缓和了其语气,其
意为
“
情况大致相同
”“
几乎差不多
< br>”“
没什么变化
”
。如:
The
patient is much the same this morning.
今天早上病人情况几乎没什么变化。
Whichever method you use,
the result is much the same.
不论你用哪一种方法,结果都差
不多。

the same thing for breakfast every day.

/p>
better
和
more

better
