Hoàn thành những câu sau, dùng dạng so sánh hơn của tính từ.. Lisa is tall.[r]
(1)Full name : ……… Date : ……… CÁC PHÉP SO SÁNH CỦA TÍNH TỪ VÀ TRẠNG TỪ
(Ngữ pháp tập đầy đủ) So sánh với tính từ ngắn
Tính từ/trạng từ ngắn tính từ/trạng từ có vần, ví dụ như: long, short, tall, high Những tính từ/trạng từ có hai vần tận bằng: y, “er” "ow" xếp vào loại tính từ/trạng từ ngắn Ví dụ như: happỵ (hạnh phúc, vui vẻ), clever (thông minh, lanh lợi), narrow (hẹp)
* Một số tính từ/trạng từ ngắn em cần nhớ :
slim (thon thả), weak (yếu), strong (khỏe), thin (ốm), big (lớn), small (nhỏ), tall (cao), short (ngắn), long (dài), high (cao)
Cách thành lập tính từ so sánh hơn:
Để thành lập tính từ so sánh hơn, ta thêm ER vào sau tính từ (tính từ ngắn) S1 + am/is/are + adj_ER + than + S2.
Eg Hoa is taller than Mai.
Minh is smaller than her mother Ngoại lê
*Good/well=> better *bad/badly/ill => worse *little => less
*Much/many=> more *far => farther/further
*quiet=> quieter more quieter *clever=> cleverer more clever *narrow => narrower more narrow *simple => simpler more simple
2 So sánh với tính từ/trạng từ dài: Tính từ/ trạng từ dài tính từ/ trạng từ có âm tiết trở lên mà không tận đuôi: Y, OW, ER
Tính từ dài: S1 + am/is/are + more + adj + than + S2 ….
Trạng từ dài: S1+ V(chia) + more + adv + than + S2 My school is more beautiful than your school
– Ví dụ: My ruler is cm long Nam’s ruler is cm long
–> My ruler is shorter than Nam’s.(thước kẻ nhắn thước kẻ Nam) –> Nam’s ruler is longer than mine
(2)Chú ý:
• Khi thêm “er” nhân đơi phụ âm cuối trước ngun âm Ví dụ: hot –> hotter
fat –> fatter thin –> thinner fit –> fitter
• Một số tính từ có hai âm tiết kết thúc “et, ow, le, er,y” áp dụng qui tắc tính từ ngắn
Ví dụ: quiet –> quieter clever –> cleverer simple –> simpler narrow –> narrower
• Khơng có dạng phủ định so sánh A is taller than B –> B isn’t as tall as A (không viết: B isn’t taller than A)
3 So sánh ngang bằng
– Công thức: S1 + V(chia) + as + adj/adv + as + S2
– Ví dụ: Lan is 16 I’m 16, too Lan is as young as I am.(Lan trẻ tôi) * Hoa runs as fast as me
4 So sánh kém
– Công thức: S1 + do/does/did + not + V +
/ am/is/are/not so/ not as + adj/adv + as + S2
(3)4 So sánh nhất
– Công thức: S + V(chia) + the + tính từ ngắn + est S + V(chia) + the + most + tính từ dài
– Ví dụ: This is the longest river in the world.(đây sông dài giới) She is the most beautiful girl in my class.(cô cô gái xinh lớp tôi)
– Bốn cấu trúc viết lời bình phẩm:
That’s/ it’s + the + tính từ ngắn + est + noun + S + have/ has + ever + P2. That’s/ it’s + the + most + tính từ dài + noun + S + have/ has + ever + P2. Ví dụ:
That’s the most interesting book I’ve ever read That’s the longest bridge I’ve ever seen
S + have/ has + P2 + a/any + tính từ ngắn + er + noun + than… S + have/ has + P2 + a + more + tính từ dài + noun + than… Ví dụ:
I’ve never read a more interesting book than this one I’ve never seen any/a longer bridge than this one – Giới từ cấp so sánh cao nhất:
+ in: với danh từ tổ, nhóm, nơi chỗ: in the group, in the company, in the world … + of: với danh từ thời gian: of the year, of the month, of one’s life…
Ví dụ: Nam is the tallest boy in my class Birthday is the happiest day of my life Các tính từ, trạng từ bất quy tắc
Tính từ so sánh so sánh cao Good/well better the best
Badly/bad/ill worse the worst
Little less the least
Much/many more the most
(4)Chú ý: eldest, elder: anh trai, chị gái gia đình older, oldest: cấp so sánh cao “old”. 5 So sánh kép (càng )
• Cơng thức 1: the comparative + S + V…the comparative + S + V…
Ví dụ: The more you learn, the more you know.(càng học bạn biết nhiều) The sooner you start, the earlier you arrive
• Cơng thức 2: the more + S + V, the comparative + S + V Ví dụ: The more you study, the smarter you will become
The more exercises you do, the better you understand the lesson
• Trong trường hợp hai vế có chủ ngữ giả 'it is' bỏ chúng The shorter (it is), the better (it is)
6 So sánh bội số
– So sánh bội số so sánh: nửa (half), gấp đôi (twice), gấp ba (three times), – Không sử dụng so sánh mà sử dụng so sánh bằng, so sánh phải xác định danh từ đếm hay không đếm được, đằng trước chúng có many/much Ví dụ:
This encyclopedy costs twice as much as the other one Jerome has half as many records now as I had last year
At the clambake last week, Fred ate three times as many oysters as Bob
Chú ý: Các lối nói: twice that many/twice that much = gấp đôi ngần dùng ngữ, không dùng văn viết
We have expected 80 people at that rally, but twice that many showed up (twice as many as that number)
