选A
有一个口诀你可以记下,我们高中老师告诉我们的:限定描绘大长高;形状年龄和新老;颜色国籍跟材料;作用类别往后靠.
英语中多个形容词作前置定语,其词序不同于汉语.总规则如下:
1、限定词
限定词位于各类形容词之首.它本身分为三位.即:前位、中位和后位,词序为前、中、后.
①前位限定词:有all,half,both,such分数和倍数.
②中位限定词:有冠词,指示代词,形容词性物主代词,名词所有格和no,every,each,either,neither,enough,much等,以及wh-起首的限定词[what(ever),which(ever),whose等].
③后位限定词:有基数词和序数词,past,same,many,more,most,few,fewer,fewest,little,less,least,own和last等.序数词在前,基数词后在.例如:
Ihaven’tseenthevasebefore.
Ilikethisprettycar.
2、描绘类
描绘类形容词表示事物的性质及人们的观点,先短词后长词.如:cold,great,bad,beautifulkind,fine,interesting,good等.例如
Ihaven’tseensuchabeautifulvasebefore.
Ilikethefirsttwoprettycars.
3、形状类
形状类形容词表示大小、长短、高低(矮)、外形、干湿度等.如:large,big,small,little,long,short,low,round,wet,dry等.例如:
Ihaven’tseensuchabeautifulbigvasebefore.
Ilikethefirsttwoprettysmallcars.
4、时间类
时间类形容词表示年龄,长幼、时代,新旧、气候,温度等.如:new,old,hot,new,little,old,young,cool,wet,dry等.例如:
Ihaven’tseensuchabeautifulbigroundoldvasebefore.
Ilikethefirsttwoprettysmallsquarenewcars.
5.颜色类
表示颜色的形容词有:brown,white,blue,black,pink,orange,grey等.例如:
Ihaven’tseensuchabeautifulbigroundoldwhitevasebefore.
Ilikethefirsttwoprettysmallsquarenewyellowcars.
6.出处类
出处类形容词表示国籍、地区、出处,产地、来源等.如:Chinese,Australia,German,Asian等.例如:
Ihaven’tseensuchabeautifulbigroundoldwhiteChinesevasebefore.
IlikethefirsttwoprettysmallsquarenewyellowJapanesecars.
7.材料类
材料类形容词表示物质、材料,质地等.如:wooden,stone,silk,golden,steel等.例如:
Ihaven’tseensuchabeautifulbigroundoldwhiteChinesewoodenvasebefore.
IlikethefirsttwoprettysmallsquarenewyellowJapanesesportscars.
8.用途类
用途类形容词表示作用、类别.如:medical,writing,police等.例如:
Thisisaalargefamousmedicalschool.
IlikethevaluableoldJapanesewritingdesk
9、作定语的名词、动名词.如:boy,girl,man,woman等.
注:在实际运用中须注意:
1.如两个以上相同种类的形容词同时修饰一个中心词时,其间可用连词and或but连接,或用逗号分开.如:ayellow,blacksportscar
2.如要强调某一种类的形容词时,可将所强调的形容词后移,同时用逗号分开.如:atall,dark,handsomecowboy
3、次序大致,但不绝对.如:Thosethreebeautifullargesquareoldbrownwoodtable,aheavyblackChinesesteelumbrella,theman’sfirsttowinterestinglittleredFrenchoilpaintings.
4.实际上很少出现按上述一至九条规则组合全的名词性词组,因为太累赘.但“无规矩不成方圆”,规则还是规则,规则必须掌握.
