24、 progress,so many people,so little food,so 7few apples 等。但当 little 表示“小”时用 such。如:These are such little boys that they cant dress themselves.下列 so 的用法是错误的:so a difficult problem,so difficult problems,so hot weather。(3)其他几组词的辨析。ago,before:ago 表示以现在为起点的“以前” ;before 指以过去或将来的某时刻为起点的“以前” 。泛指“以前”用 before
25、而不用 ago。already,yet,still:already 表示某事已经发生;yet 表示期待某事发生;still表示某事还在进行,主要用于肯定句。too,also,either:too 和 also 用于肯定句,too 多用于口语,also 多用于书面语,either 用于否定句。good,well:与 good 不同的是,well 作形容词,只能在系动词后作表语,表示“身体状况好” ,也作副词修饰动词。quick,fast:作形容词皆表示“快” 。fast 多指运动的物体,含持续的意思。quick多指一次动作的敏捷、突然,而且持续的时间较短。real,true:作形容词皆表示“真的
26、” 。real 强调真实存在的而不是幻想的,在句中常作定语;true 指与事实标准和实际情况相符合,在句中作表语或定语。hard,difficult:均表示“困难” ,但 hard 通常指体力上困难;difficult 则指智力或技能上的困难,困难程度大于 hard。它们都可作定语和表语。 1.Despite the poor service of the hotel,the manager is to invest in sufficient training for his staff.(2018江苏,34)A.keen B.reluctantC.anxious D.ready答案 B解析
