1 Phân biệt các loại tính từ, trạng từ:
• Tính từ ngắn vần: Là tính từ chỉ có một vần (long, short, tall, high, big) hoặc có hai vần
nhưng tận cùng là –y (happy, crazy, buzy), -ow (narrow), -er (clever) hoặc –le (simple)
• Tính từ dài vần: Là tính từ có 2 vần trở lên (handsome, beautiful, interested)
• Tính từ bất qui tắc: Là tính từ có hình thức so sánh hơn và nhất của nó khác hoàn toàn với
tính từ ban đầu: good better best, bad worse worst, far farther/further farthest/furthest
• Trạng từ ngắn vần: là các trạng từ soon, fast, early, late, far, near
• Trạng từ dài vần: là các trạng từ 2 vần trở lên (beautifully, carefully)
• Các từ sau đây có thể xem như là tính từ ngắn, nhưng thường được dùng như tính từ dài:
quiet, clever, narrow, shallow, simple, gentle, common, hollow, polite, handsome, wicked, pleasant, cruel, stupid, tired.
2 Cách thành lập hình thức so sánh hơn và nhất của tính từ và trạng từ:
• Ngắn vần: khi so sánh hơn ta thêm –ER, so sánh nhất ta thêm (the) –EST
Ví dụ: She is taller than I She is the tallest girl in my class
• Dài vần: khi so sánh hơn ta thêm MORE , so sánh nhất ta thêm (the) MOST
Trang 11Ví dụ: She is more studious than I She is the most studious girl in my class
Lưu ý: So sánh nhất của trạng từ không dùng THE
Ví dụ: She came earlier than I She came earliest She dances beautifully She dances most beautifully.
3 Mẫu câu so sánh bằng:
S1 + V + as + adj/adv + as+ S2
Chủ ngữ 1 + động từ + as + tính từ/trạng từ + as + Chủ ngữ 2
My house is as big as yours
He runs as fast as I (do).
4 Mẫu câu so sánh hơn
S + V + more + adj/adv than + S 2
adj-er/ adv-er
My house is bigger than yours
He runs faster than I (do).
5 Mẫu câu so sánh nhất
S + V + the most + adj/adv
the adj-est/ adv-est
Nếu so sánh trạng từ thì ta không thêm THE His house is the biggest in town (biggest là một tính từ nên có mạo từ THE)
He runs fastest (fastest là một trạng từ nên không có mạo từ THE)
6 Cấu trúc so sánh kép
• Mẫu câu càng ngày càng…, mỗi lúc một…
adj-er and adj-er/ adv-er and adv-er The weather is getting hotter and hotter.
Food is getting more and more expensive
He runs faster and faster
• Mẫu câu càng… thì càng…
The + so sánh hơn S + V, the + so sánh hơn S + V
The more exercise he practices, the stronger he feels The more money we spend, the sooner we run out of it.
The more carefully she drives, the less accidents she causes.
