Grammar focus 语法
1. Short skirts are in fashion now. 短裙现在正流行。
in fashion=popular. 都表示流行的,时髦的。如:
Miniskirts are in fashion in Shenzhen this summer.
今夏迷你短裙风靡深圳。
The song, 《that girl》 is becoming widely popular.
这首歌《that girl》正在广泛流行开来。
2. Would you like to try it. 你要试一试吗?
本句中的Would you like…?和下文Could you show me another blue dress? 这句话中的Could you…?这两个句型都是询问对方意见的一种委婉语气。如:
Would you like to tell me what happened?
能告诉我发生了什么事吗?
Could you lend me some money?
你能借我点钱吗?
3. It's smaller than the blue one. 它比那套蓝色的小一些。
than表示比,smaller是在形容词small的后面+er变成了它的比较级,表示更小;最高级是the smallest,在词尾+est而变成了它的最高级,表示最小,最高级前要加定冠词the。如下文中的句子:
I think the blue dress is prettier.
我认为那件蓝色的更漂亮些。
I'm afraid I haven't got a larger dress.
恐怕没有更大的了。
This is the largest dress in the shop.
这是店里最大的一件了。
形容词的比较级和最高级的变化规则:
a. 一般直接在词尾+er、est,如:
tall-taller-tallest
young-younger-youngest
cheap-cheaper-cheapest
b. 以e结尾+r、st。如:
wide-wider-widest
large-larger-largest
nice-nicer-nicest
c. 以辅元辅结尾的,且元音字母读短音时,双写尾字母,再+er、est。如:
fat-fatter-fattest
thin-thinner-thinnest
big-bigger-biggest
d. 以辅音字母+y结尾,变y为i,再+er、est。如:
happy-happier-happiest
easy-easier-easiest
heavy-heavier-heaviest
e. 不规则变化,如:
good-better-best
bad-worse-worst
little-less-least
f. 多音节的形容词,通常在原级之前+more、the most。如:
beautiful-more beautiful-the most beautiful
difficult-more difficult-the most difficult
interesting-more interesting-the most interesting
4. It doesn't suit me at all. 这颜色我穿根本不合适。
suit作动词表示适合(指颜色、款式的适合),而动词fit也表示适合(指尺寸、大小的适合)。如:
Does this color of lipstick suit me?
这口红的颜色适合我吗?
Does this shirt fit you?
这件衬衣合身吗?
suit作名词表示套装或者一套西装。如:
