八、形容词、副词及其比较级
   
    1.形容词的句法功能
    形容词在句中做定语、表语和主语。考生应注意：
    (1)以 “a” 开头的形容词如alone, alike, asleep, awake等不能做前置定语，可做表语或后置定语。
    (2)某些以副词词缀 “-ly” 结尾的词是形容词，如friendly, leisurely, lovely等。
    (3)下列动词既是实义动词又是系动词，注意用做系动词时，要求形容词做表语：remain, keep, become, get, grow, go, come, turn, stay, stand, run, prove, seem, appear, look。如：
    All those left undone may sound great in theory, but even the truest believer has great difficulty when it comes to specifics.
   
    2.副词主要测试其修饰作用
    考生应了解：副词可修饰谓语动词、非谓语动词、形容词、副词、介词短语、整个句子。如：
    This pair of shoes isn’t good, but that pair is hardly better.
    (与前半句的否定意义吻合)
    It’s essential that people be psychologically able to resist the impact brought about by the transition from planned economy to market economy.
    Andrew, my father’s younger brother, will not be at the picnic, much to the family’s disappointment.
