副词和副词词组的主要用法
副词(词组)的主要旬法功能是在词组中和句中作修饰成分,下面就从这两方面来谈:
1)
副词在词组中作修饰语
副词能在动词词组、形容词词组、副词词组、介词词组等词组中修饰动词、形容词、副词、介词、限定词,以及修饰个别名词词组
a) 修饰动词·
They
completely
ignored my views. 他们完全无视我的观点。
I
entirely
agree with her. 我完全同意她的看法。
I
rather
like him. 我比较喜欢他。
They can
hardly
ignore our views. 他们几乎不能忽视我们的观点。
She
kind
of
hoped to be invited. 她有点希望被邀请。
I
sort
of
thought you might say that. 我觉得你可以这么说。
这里的
completely,
entirely,
rather,
hardly, kind
of,
sort
of
都是一些程度副词,对随后的动词起强调、强化、弱化等修饰作用它们是动词词组的组成部分,从而不同于状语
(adverbial) 。副词在作形容词、副词、介词等修饰语时,也都是词组成分,而不是分句成分
(clause element)。
b)
修饰形容词·
That
was
a
very
funny film. 那是一部非常有趣的电影。
He had an
unusually
deep voice 他有着深沉有力的嗓音。

in
the

was
that
hungry
I
could
have
eaten a horse. 我饿得连一匹马都能吃得下。
I'm
feeling
kind
of
tired. 我觉得有点累了。
c)
修饰副词

a clever
girl, and has learnt the new
work
very
quickly. 她是个聪明的女孩,学新活儿很快。
He drives
extremely
carefully. 他开车非常小心。
Do
it
right
now. 就现在,别延误。
He spoke
sort
of
proudly. 他说话显得有点自豪。
副词的上述用法都作前置修饰语,只有
enough
例外,作后置修饰语:
She cooks well
enough. 她厨艺好得很呢!
He didn't run fast
enough. 他没跑得很快呢!
d)
修饰介词和连词
少数几个副词(如
well,
right,
just,
soon
等)也可用千修饰介词:
I
can't reach
it;
it's
well
(远远地)
over my head. 我够不着;远过了我的头顶。
There's
the house,
right
in front
of you. 房子就面对着你。
His parents are
dead
(完全地)
against the trip. 他的父母绝对反对这次旅行。
e) 修饰限定词
某些程度副词可作前置修饰语修饰限定词。

about
5
miles. 我们走了大约5英里。

quite
a
lot
of
people at Louis's

the

也可修饰连词

we
left
the
house,
it
started
to
rain. 我们刚离开家不久,天就开始下雨了。
f)
修饰名词和整个名词词组:
在非正式语体中,少数几个(如
quite,
rather
等)程度副词能作前置修饰语,置于限定词之前修饰整个名词词组。
It
takes
quite
some time. 这需要相当多的时间。

quite
a story. 那还真是个故事。

rather
a
fool. 她真是个傻瓜。
还有一些地点副词和时间副词能作后置修饰语修饰名词,例如:
the way
ahead,
the
direction
back, the
hall
downstairs, the
noise
backstage
,
his
trip
abroad,
his
journey
home
,
the
sentence
below, the
photo
above
, your friend
here
, that man
there
, his return
home
, the neighbours
upstairs
, the meeting
yesterday,
the meal
afterwards
, the day
before
,
their
stay
overnight
等。
也有些副词,包括上述某些副词,也能作前置修饰语修饰名词 (有些辞书已把这种能用作前置修饰语的副词收入形容词条目。)。
the
downstairs
part
of
the house, the
above
sentence, his
home
journey,in
after
years (在后来的年月里),a
house with 3 upstairs rooms,the backstage noise,an away match (客场比赛),the then capital of the
country
2)
副词词组在句中作状语
用作状语的副词词组在句中起三种作用:一是作修饰性状语
(adjunct);
二是作评注性状语
(disjunct)
; 三是作连接性状语
(conjunct) 副词词组作修饰性状语,表示动作、过程、状态等发生和存在的时间、地点、方式等
副词词组在用作修饰性状语时,它在句子中的位置是比较灵活的,它可以位于句首、句中或句尾,但这也要从词汇意义上看中心词属于何种副词
一般说来,时间副词词组根据修辞需要置于句首、句中、句尾都可以。
Recently
they had an accident. 最近他们出了个事故。
They
recently
had an accident. 他们最近出了个事故。
They had an accident
recently. 他们出的那个事故是在最近。
方式副词词组置于句尾者居多。
They
live
frugally. 他们生活节俭。
He
always
drives
carefully. 他总是开车很小心。
We
all
listened
patiently. 我们都听得很有耐心。
但有时由于修辞需要也可置于句首.
Noiselessly
she crept across the floor, got the
door
open
without
a sound, and
was
outside.
Quietly
she
walked
on and on. 静静地,她走着,不停地走着。
地点副词词组位千句尾者居多。
The
porter
will take
you
luggage
upstairs. 行李员会运你的行李上楼。

captain told
the
sailors
to
go

of
the page
and
decided to
stop
there. 我读到了这一页的底部,决定停下来。
I
couldn't
find
it
though I'd looked
everywhere. 我到处找都找不到。
关于副词词组作评注性状语和连接性状语。
Frankly
(坦白地说), I can
do nothing about
it. 坦率地说,我无能为力的就是此事。
Briefly
(简而言之),
she
didn't want to speak to
him. 简单地说,她不想说话的就是他了。

it
will
be
too late. 就现在,否则就太晚了。
Tom
hasn't
arrived yet.

however,
come
later. 汤姆还没到。但他可能会到得晚些。
在上例中的frankly,briefly
是评注性状语;而otherwise, however
是连接性状语。
