四、much too, too much的比较
much too就是too的强势语，用来修饰形容词或副词，意为“太…”;too much就是much的强势语，用来修饰不可数名词或动词(后面不接任何词)，意为“太多(…)”。如：
1. Allen had to call a taxi because the box was ________ to carry all the way home. (全国卷)
A. much too heavy B. too much heavy
C. heavy too much D. too heavy much
【分析】答案选A。heavy是形容词，应用副词too来修饰，而much too就是too的强势语。
2. It was ________ late to catch a bus after the party, therefore we called a taxi. (上海卷)
A. too very B. much too
C. too much D. far
【分析】答案选B。late是形容词，用much too修饰。
五、nearly, almost的比较
在肯定句中或者don’t, doesn’t, didn’t之前，两者可互换，只是almost = very nearly。但是：
1. 在not, very, pretty之后用nearly，不用almost。(from www.nmet168.com)
2. 在no, no one, none, nobody, nothing, nowhere, never, any, too, impossible, think, believe, wish等前面用almost，而不用nearly。若是做选择题，只要记住在not, very, pretty之后用nearly外，一般选almost。如：
There isn’t nearly enough time to learn all these words. 把这些词都学会，是间远远不够。
Almost no one believes her. 几乎没有人相信她。
六、so, that, such的比较
so是副词，后面一定是接形容词或副词;在口语中，常用that来代替so;such是形容词，后接“(形容词+)名词”，但在名词有表示“多”“少”的many, much, little, few时，要用so。如：
1. Can you believe that in ________ a rich country there should be ________ many poor people? (全国卷)
A. such; such B. such, so
C. so; so D. so; such
【分析】答案选B。名词前用形容词such，such a rich country =so rich a country;在many前要用so。
2. Sometimes it was a bit boring to work there because there wasn’t always ________ much to do. (广东卷)
A. such B. that
C. more D. very
【分析】答案选B。much前用so, 不用such。口语中，常用that来代替so。
