“修饰比较级” (Modifying comparatives)
🔒 登录后可标记已读- much taller than、slightly cheaper、exactly the same as——同样是比较级,加上不同修饰语就能说出差距的大小。
- 表示差距大:much/a lot/so much/even/far 放在比较形容词前,nowhere near 放在 as...as 前。
- 表示差距小:slightly/a little/a bit/not much 放在比较形容词前,almost/nearly/roughly/more or less 放在 as...as 前。
- 表示完全没差距:exactly the same as、just as...as。
- very 不能直接修饰比较级(不能说 very taller),这是最常见的错误,属于 B2 精细化用法。

常见错误
❌ He is very taller than me. ✅ He is much taller than me. / He is a lot taller than me. (very 不能修饰比较级,要用 much / a lot / far / even)
❌ She is nowhere near as tall than me. ✅ She is nowhere near as tall as me. (as … as 结构,两边都要用 as,不能换成 than)
❌ This is a bit more better. ✅ This is a bit better. (better 已经是比较级,不需要再加 more)
