  very是英语口语和书面语中使用频率较高的词之一。但是很多同学在运用该词进行口语交际和书面表达时经常出错。下面就为大家列举一些常见错例,谈谈使用very需要注意的几点。


  一. 忌修饰形容词或副词的比较级。修饰形容词或副词的比较级,应借助于下列程度副词:much(……得多),still(还要,还),even(更),far(……得多,大大……)。例如:


  1. 吉姆比凯特高得多。
  误:Jim is very taller than Kate .
  正:Jim is much taller than Kate .


  2. 昨天很热,但今天更热。
  误:It was hot yesterday , but it is very hotter today .
  正:It was hot yesterday , but it is still/even hotter today .


  3. 这部电影比那一部好得多。
  误:This film is very better than that one .
  正:This film is far better than that one .


  二. 忌修饰动词。修饰动词必须用a lot , a litte , very much等。例如:


  1. 我非常喜欢英语。
  误:I very like English .
  正:I like English very much .


  2. 布朗太太非常喜欢吃肉。
  误:Mrs Brown very likes meat .
  正:Mrs Brown likes meat a lot .


  三. 忌修饰作表语的形容词alive(有活力的,有生气的),asleep(睡着的),awake(醒着的,警觉的),alone(单独的)等。例如:


  1. 我此刻非常清醒。
  误:I am very awake at the moment .
  正:I am wide awake at the moment .


  2. 学生们仍在熟睡。
  误:The students are still very asleep .
  正:The students are still fast asleep .


  3. 昨晚这座房子里就我一人。
  误:I was very alone in the house last night .
  正:I was all alone in the house last night .


  四. 忌用来加强副词或介词短语的语气,加强副词或介词短语的语气一般用right,有时用well。very只能用来加强形容词的语气。例如:


  1. 我到处找我的钢笔,可它就在我的口袋里。
  误:I looked for my pen here and there , but it was very in my pocket .
  正:I looked for my pen here and there , but it was right in my pocket .


  2. 这本书非常值得一读。
  误:This book is very worth reading .
  正:This book is well worth reading .


  五. 忌修饰“too+形容词/副词”结构,该结构前常用much , all等来加强语气。例如:


  1. 这件衬衫我穿起来太大了。
  误:This shirt is very too large for me .
  正:This shirt is much too large for me .


  2. 我们的英语老师讲话太快了。
  误:Our English teacher speaks very too fast .
  正:Our English teacher speaks all too fast .


  六. 忌替代“so…that…”,“too…to…”结构中的so和too。例如:


  1. 他年龄非常小,不能去工作。
  误:He is very young to go to work .
  正:He is too young to go to work .


  2. 我非常累,一点也走不动了。
  误:I’m very tired that I can’t walk a bit .
  正:I’m so tired that I can’t walk a bit .


  七. 忌出现在感叹句中,以免与感叹词重复。例如:


  1. 多么糟糕的天气啊!
  误:What very bad weather !
  正:What bad weather !


  2. 同学们干得多么带劲啊 !
  误:How very hard the students are working !
  正:How hard the students are working !
