有关very修饰的习惯错误

2016-06-07来源:和谐英语

我们先来看一道题:
He was __________ tired and soon he was __________ asleep.
A. very, very         B. fast, fast           C. fast, very          D. very, fast
此题应选 D。容易误选 A。在通常情况下,副词very 可用来修饰其他形容词或副词,以加强语气,但是有些形容词习惯上不用very而是用其他词语来修饰。如:
1. 某些以a-开头的表语形容词通常不用very修饰。如:
他睡得很熟。
正:He was fast [sound] asleep.
误:He was very asleep.
他完全是醒的。
正:He is wide awake.
误:He is very awake.
他独自一人。
正:He is all alone.
误:He is very alone.
2. 修饰worth(值得)通常不用very。如:
这本书很值得读。
正:The book is well worth reading.
误:The book is very worth reading.
2. 修饰动词习惯上不用very, 根据情况可用 very much, much, quite 等来表示类似意思。如:
我很喜欢英语
正:I like English very much.
误:I very like English.
