二．考点讲义

一、概念

形容词是用来修饰名词，说明事物或人的性质状态或特征的词。

副词主要用来修饰动词、形容词、副词或其他结构的词。

二、用法

形容词在句中可以充当定语修饰名词、代词，也可作表语表示主语的状态和特征，也可作补语和状语。副词在句中作状语，修饰动词、形容词、副词、介词短语、从句等，也可修饰整个句子。

虽然形容词、副词的用法繁多，但是高考单选中对他们的考查也是有章可循的，主要体现在以下几个方面。

1．形容词和副词在具体语境中的运用

试题中提供的四个选项均属于形式相同、意义相异的形容词或副词，做题时必须根据语境，即根据上下文的意思或逻辑等来确定选项。

Water can absorb and give off a lot of heat without big changes in temperature, thus creating a stable environment.

2．形容词和副词与其他词的搭配

英语中有些形容词和副词与名词、动词，或另一形容词等的搭配与汉语不完全一样，在平时学习中通过运用把它们掌握好。如“大”雨、“浓”雾中的“大、浓”，英语中用heavy；汉语中说人数“多”，英语中却用large；汉语中说睡得“香”，英语中却说soundly等。
