形容词比较级前可加状语调节程度,常用两类修饰词:一类表削弱(轻微差异),一类表加强(明显差异),常搭配be、taste、look等动词使用。
一、 加a little/a little bit 削弱比较级(表“稍微、略微”)这类词能弱化比较级的差异感,突出变化程度小,日常使用频率极高。
1. a little bit + 比较级
This cheese cake tastes a little bit better than the last one.
这个芝士蛋糕比前一个稍微好吃一点。
The new dress is a little bit looser than my old one.
这条新裙子比我的旧裙子稍微宽松一点。
2. a little + 比较级
He is a little older than he looks.
他的实际年龄比他看上去稍微大一些。
The coffee is a little hotter than I expected.
这杯咖啡比我预想的稍微烫一点。
3. 拓展例句
The movie is a little bit more interesting than the book.
这部电影比原著稍微有趣一点。
She walks a little faster than her sister.
她走路比她姐姐稍微快一点。
二、 加much/so much 加强比较级(表“……得多、非常……”)搭配be、taste、look等动词时,much和so much能显著强化比较级的差异,突出程度远超普通对比,so much比much语气更强烈。
基础对比(无修饰+much+so much)
He is older than he looks.
