It is a rather difficult job.
He runs very fast.
He didn’t work hard enough.
4)副词作定语时,一般放在被修饰的名词之后。例如:
On my way home, I met my uncle.
The students there have a lot time to do their own research work.
(3)部分常用副词的用法
1) very, much
这两个副词都可表示“很”,但用法不同。Very用来修饰形容词和副词的原级,而much用来修饰形容词和副词的比较级。例如:
She is a very nice girl
I’m feeling much better now.
使用零冠词的典型情形
所谓用零冠词,即既不用定冠词,也不用不定冠词。这类情况主要有:
1. 表泛指的不可数名词或复数名词前。如:
Snow was failing. 正在下雪。
Children get a better education today than at any time in the past. 现今孩子们受的比过去任何时候都好。
2. 倒装的让步状语从句中:在as(虽然)引导让步状语从句前面的单数可数名词前不用冠词。如:
Child as he was, he knew how to help others. 他虽是个孩子,但已如何帮助别人。
3. 某些特殊词前:例如在man(人,人类), word(消息)的前面不用冠词。如:
Man is a rational animal. 人是理性的动物。
Word came that he had married again. 有消息说,他又结婚了。
又如动词 turn(变成),go(变成)后作表语的名词前通常用不用冠词。如:
He was a teacher before he turned writer. 他在成为作家之前是。
4. 独立主格结构中:在表示伴随或补充说明用用的独立主格结构中,名词前不用冠词。如:
The teacher came in, book in hand. 走进教室,手里拿着书。
He was sitting in the chair, pipe in mouth. 他坐在椅子里,嘴里叼着烟斗。
