第十二課　形容詞最高級(jí)
一.本課要點(diǎn)及示例

在這一課里, 我們學(xué)習(xí)形容詞最高級(jí), 比方: "最高", "最好", "最快" 等等.

現(xiàn)在我們來聽這一課的對(duì)話, 請(qǐng)你注意聽老師的發(fā)音和語調(diào).

M: Nancy, I have to submit a report on the big fire last night. Can you help me type it?

F: Why me? I have a lot of work to do.

M: Because you are the best typist in the office.

F: But you always write the longest reports.

M: Well, this one is very long because it's about the biggest fire in months.

F: And this is the most important report, right?

M: Yes, and I type very slowly. So, please help me.

F: All right. Can I do it tomorrow? This is my busiest day.

M: Sure. Thank you very much. You are the greatest.

現(xiàn)在我們把整段對(duì)話再聽一遍. 這次老師念的比較慢, 請(qǐng)你注意聽:

M: Nancy, I have to submit a report on the big fire last night. Can you help me type it?

F: Why me? I have a lot of work to do.

M: Because you are the best typist in the office.

F: But you always write the longest reports.

M: Well, this one is very long because it's about the biggest fire in months.

F: And this is the most important report, right?

M: Yes, and I type very slowly. So, please help me.

F: All right. Can I do it tomorrow? This is my busiest day.

M: Sure. Thank you very much. You are the greatest.

在剛才那段對(duì)話里, 有一些形容詞最高級(jí)的例子, 現(xiàn)在我請(qǐng)英文老師把這些例 子念出來, 請(qǐng)你注意聽.

M: You are the best typist in the office.

F: You write the longest reports.

M: It's about the biggest fire in months.

F: This is the most important report.

F: This is my busiest day.

M: You are the greatest.

二.形容詞最高級(jí)

從剛才那段對(duì)話里, 你可能已經(jīng)聽出來英語的形容詞最高級(jí)基本上有兩種. 一 種是在短的形容詞后面加上e-s-t, 比方: longest, biggest 等等; 另外一種是在長 的形容詞的前面加上most,m-o-s-t, most, 比方: most intelligent, most beautiful 等 等. 不過也有例外, 比方: "最好" 是 best, b-e-s-t, best, "最壞" 是 worst, w-o-r-s-t, worst. 而且在形容詞最高級(jí)的前面通常要加 the, t-h-e, the.

下面來我們作一組練習(xí). 由老師念一些跟剛才那段對(duì)話有關(guān)系的句子, 請(qǐng)學(xué)生 把句子里的形容詞, 改為形容詞最高級(jí)說出來. 比方老師說: Nancy is a good typist. 學(xué)生就說: Nancy is the best typist. 現(xiàn)在我們開始作練習(xí). 請(qǐng)你在學(xué)生作 練習(xí)的時(shí)候也一起作.

M: Nancy is a good typist.

F: Nancy is the best typist.

M: Nancy is a busy typist.

F: Nancy is the busiest typist.

M: Nancy is a great friend.

F: Nancy is the greatest friend.

M: Henry wrote a long report.

F: Henry wrote the longest report.

M: It is an important report.

F: It is the most important report.

下面我們來聽一段對(duì)話,內(nèi)容是說南希跟亨利聊天, 談到亨利有幾個(gè)孩子, 哪個(gè) 最大, 哪個(gè)最小, 誰最高, 誰最聰明等等. 現(xiàn)在請(qǐng)你注意聽, 等一會(huì)兒我們要根 據(jù)這段對(duì)話作練習(xí).

F: How many children do you have?

M: I have three. Peter, Jenny and Linda.

F: Is Peter the oldest one?

M: No, he isn't. Jenny is the oldest. Linda is the youngest. Peter is in the middle; but he is the tallest one. He is even taller than I am.

F: Is Peter in the university?

M: No, he is a senior in high school. I think he is the most intelligent one in the family. But Jenny is the most beautiful one and Linda is the most ambitious one. My wife, Kate, and I are very proud of them.

F: Does your wife work?

M: Yes, she teaches in an elementary school. She is the busiest one in the family.

剛才那段對(duì)話里有很多形容詞最高級(jí)的例子, 現(xiàn)在我們來練習(xí)這些最高級(jí)形容 詞.練習(xí)的作法是由老師用比較級(jí)形容詞提出一個(gè)問句,請(qǐng)你用形容詞最高級(jí)作 肯定的答覆. 比方老師問你: Is Henry older than Peter? 你就回答說: Yes, Henry is the oldest one in the family. 現(xiàn)在我們開始作練習(xí). 每作完一句, 就請(qǐng)你聽正確 答案.
