2． 比較級(jí)測(cè)試特點(diǎn)

　　在四級(jí)測(cè)試中，比較級(jí)屬低檔題，比較簡(jiǎn)單，考查范圍大體有
1）比較級(jí)形式的判斷
　　比較級(jí)考題在設(shè)計(jì)干擾項(xiàng)時(shí)一般都會(huì)有比較與非比較的選擇，more than 與as/so …as的選擇。如上面的③，⑤。

2）比較級(jí)的修飾語(yǔ)
　　比較級(jí)的修飾語(yǔ)包括修飾語(yǔ)的結(jié)構(gòu)和修飾語(yǔ)的選用。
　　結(jié)構(gòu)指比較級(jí)修飾語(yǔ)須置于比較級(jí)之前，如①，②和④。
　　修飾語(yǔ)的選用根據(jù)其所表達(dá)的意思而定，如⑥，⑩。

3）比較級(jí)結(jié)構(gòu)與其它結(jié)構(gòu)的區(qū)別
　　如⑧中形容詞修飾語(yǔ)more than a month與比較級(jí)結(jié)構(gòu)的區(qū)別，⑨中most 與the most的區(qū)別。

3． 比較級(jí)應(yīng)對(duì)策略

1）如果選項(xiàng)中有比較級(jí)結(jié)構(gòu)，則該題則為比較級(jí)考查題，可根據(jù)比較級(jí)使用規(guī)則選擇正確答案。
2）比較級(jí)修飾語(yǔ)應(yīng)注意more than 或as…as結(jié)構(gòu)之前。
3）注意比較結(jié)構(gòu)的完整性，要么是more than 結(jié)構(gòu)，要么是as/so …as 結(jié)構(gòu)，或是the more …., the more ….的句型。
4）注意結(jié)構(gòu)的各種變體：
結(jié)構(gòu)內(nèi)出現(xiàn)名詞時(shí)的結(jié)構(gòu)可以是as old a car, as many /much/few/little …as。
5）如果有比較 對(duì)象的選擇應(yīng)注意比較對(duì)象的一致性和互不包容性。如：
His English is better than anyone else's in his class.

4． 自我測(cè)試

　　請(qǐng)根據(jù)《語(yǔ)法分冊(cè)》第十二章自檢。
