注意:
(1)the/these/those+形容词表示一类人/物;成对的形容词这样用时可省去the。
the rich are not always happy.
high and low all like this flower.
(2)“enough足够的”作定语时既可放在中心词前也可放在中心词后;但作副词时只能后置。
we have enough food to eat.
we have food enough to eat.
it’s warm enough.
(3)许多以前缀a-构成的形容词常作后置定语,这样的形容词有:awake, alone, alive, afraid, alike, asleep, ashamed等。
it is a book worth reading.
do you know the man asleep over there?
(4)形容词修饰由some/any/no/every与one/body/thing构成的复合不定代词时,要后置。
i have something important to tell you.
(5)形容词(与其他词组/语构成的)短语作定语时要后置。
english is a language difficult to master.
(6)几个副词作状语并列时,位置一般按方式→地点→时间顺序排列。
he came here by air yesterday.
(7)几个形容词并列作表语时,并列的词之间用逗号隔开,最后两个词之间用and(but/yet)等连接,并列词的先后顺序较灵活(有时将强调的词放在最后)。
he is tall,dark and handsome.
