第十二课　形容词最高级
一.本课要点及示例

在这一课里, 我们学习形容词最高级, 比方: "最高", "最好", "最快" 等等.

现在我们来听这一课的对话, 请你注意听老师的发音和语调.

M: Nancy, I have to submit a report on the big fire last night. Can you help me type it?

F: Why me? I have a lot of work to do.

M: Because you are the best typist in the office.

F: But you always write the longest reports.

M: Well, this one is very long because it's about the biggest fire in months.

F: And this is the most important report, right?

M: Yes, and I type very slowly. So, please help me.

F: All right. Can I do it tomorrow? This is my busiest day.

M: Sure. Thank you very much. You are the greatest.

现在我们把整段对话再听一遍. 这次老师念的比较慢, 请你注意听:

M: Nancy, I have to submit a report on the big fire last night. Can you help me type it?

F: Why me? I have a lot of work to do.

M: Because you are the best typist in the office.

F: But you always write the longest reports.

M: Well, this one is very long because it's about the biggest fire in months.

F: And this is the most important report, right?

M: Yes, and I type very slowly. So, please help me.

F: All right. Can I do it tomorrow? This is my busiest day.

M: Sure. Thank you very much. You are the greatest.

在刚才那段对话里, 有一些形容词最高级的例子, 现在我请英文老师把这些例 子念出来, 请你注意听.

M: You are the best typist in the office.

F: You write the longest reports.

M: It's about the biggest fire in months.

F: This is the most important report.

F: This is my busiest day.

M: You are the greatest.

二.形容词最高级

从刚才那段对话里, 你可能已经听出来英语的形容词最高级基本上有两种. 一 种是在短的形容词后面加上e-s-t, 比方: longest, biggest 等等; 另外一种是在长 的形容词的前面加上most,m-o-s-t, most, 比方: most intelligent, most beautiful 等 等. 不过也有例外, 比方: "最好" 是 best, b-e-s-t, best, "最坏" 是 worst, w-o-r-s-t, worst. 而且在形容词最高级的前面通常要加 the, t-h-e, the.

下面来我们作一组练习. 由老师念一些跟刚才那段对话有关系的句子, 请学生 把句子里的形容词, 改为形容词最高级说出来. 比方老师说: Nancy is a good typist. 学生就说: Nancy is the best typist. 现在我们开始作练习. 请你在学生作 练习的时候也一起作.

M: Nancy is a good typist.

F: Nancy is the best typist.

M: Nancy is a busy typist.

F: Nancy is the busiest typist.

M: Nancy is a great friend.

F: Nancy is the greatest friend.

M: Henry wrote a long report.

F: Henry wrote the longest report.

M: It is an important report.

F: It is the most important report.

下面我们来听一段对话,内容是说南希跟亨利聊天, 谈到亨利有几个孩子, 哪个 最大, 哪个最小, 谁最高, 谁最聪明等等. 现在请你注意听, 等一会儿我们要根 据这段对话作练习.

F: How many children do you have?

M: I have three. Peter, Jenny and Linda.

F: Is Peter the oldest one?

M: No, he isn't. Jenny is the oldest. Linda is the youngest. Peter is in the middle; but he is the tallest one. He is even taller than I am.

F: Is Peter in the university?

M: No, he is a senior in high school. I think he is the most intelligent one in the family. But Jenny is the most beautiful one and Linda is the most ambitious one. My wife, Kate, and I are very proud of them.

F: Does your wife work?

M: Yes, she teaches in an elementary school. She is the busiest one in the family.

刚才那段对话里有很多形容词最高级的例子, 现在我们来练习这些最高级形容 词.练习的作法是由老师用比较级形容词提出一个问句,请你用形容词最高级作 肯定的答覆. 比方老师问你: Is Henry older than Peter? 你就回答说: Yes, Henry is the oldest one in the family. 现在我们开始作练习. 每作完一句, 就请你听正确 答案.
