四、副词的位置

(一)程度副词的位置

程度副词一般放在被修饰的动词、形容词或副词前面, 如果实义动词前有情态动词或助动词,程度副词要放在二者之间;如果是be动词,程度副词要放于其后。常用的这类词有:just, too, fairly, nearly, almost, quite, extremely, completely, deeply, greatly, hardly, definitely, partly, terribly, considerably, rather, so, very, much等

在动词+宾语结构中,如果宾语较长,常把副词置于动词之前,以免造成歧义。比较:

几个地点状语连用时,大地方放在最后。例如:

五、副词的排列次序

(二)具体的→笼统的,小的→大的。例如:

I saw the program at ten o'clock yesterday evening.

He is used to taking a walk for an hour or so every day in the evening.

Note:

注意下面两句副词的用法:

(三)run, go, drive+地点副词→方式副词→时间副词。例如:

另外,两个方式副词一起用时,通常是短的在前,长的在后。例如:

(四)enough和only在句中的位置

enough修饰形容词、副词或动词时,一般位于它们的后面。例如:

The egg is not boiled enough.

only应紧靠它所修饰的词,不同的位置往往具有不同的意义。例如:

Only he lent the book to her.

只有他把书借给了她。(意即:别人没借给他)

He only lent the book to her.

他只是把书借给了她。(意即:不是把书送给她)

He lent the book to her only.

他把书只借给了她。(意即:没借给其他任何人)

上述各句中的onl

y词本身虽没改变,但因其位置改变了,所限定的对象不同,因而影响到全句意思。再如:

Then why didn't you do it?那么,为什么你没有做这件事?

First comes Henry, then Alfred.先来的是亨利,接着是阿尔福特。

I worked in a middle school then.我当时在一所中学工作。

上述各句中的then 分别居句首、句中和句末,词义也各不相同。

有些地点副词和时间副词可以后置修饰名词。例如:

the way ahead the direction back

the hall downstairs the trip abroad

his journey home the sentence below

the photo above the man there

the noise backstage the neighbours upstairs

the meeting yesterday the stay overnight

但有些副词,包括上述一些副词,也可以前置修饰名词。例如:

the downstairs part of the house
