两种形式
close与closely
late 与lately
deep与deeply
high表示空间高度;highly表示程度,相当于much
free与freely
副词有加a或ly的 区别在于通常加a 的副词描述一种状态,而加ly 的副词则倾向于感觉。
英语中, 有些副词具有两种形式:一是与形容词同形;二是由该形容词后加-ly构成(以下称形容词形副词和-ly形副词)。这两种形式的副词有些含义相同或在某些情 况下含义相同,有些则完全不同;有的含义相同但用法又有所不同,有的含义不同但用法又相同。如何正确运用这些副词,是同学们在平时学习中经常遇到的令人困 惑的问题,因为这涉及到语体、语义和语用等方面的问题。
使用区别
总体
侧重点和感情色彩不同,这两种副词有时可以互换使用,所以其内含的静动态意义也会随之变化。
2.形容词形副词不能被一个程度状语所修饰,而-ly形副词则可以。
3.形容词形副词多用在非
正式语体中,而-ly形副词多用在正式语体中。
4.形容词形副词一般表示较具体的概念,而-ly形副词则表示抽象或引申意义,有时还带有一定的感情色彩。
5.在表示比较级和最高级时通常用形容词形副词来取代-ly形副词。
6.在
过去分词、作主语用的
动名词和
强调句中被强调的成分前通常只用-ly形副词而不用形容词形副词。
具体
两者意思相同。但在实际运用中,一般只用cheap而不用cheaply,尤其是在口语中与动词
buy和
sell等连用时,只用cheap。例如:
He sold the house very cheap.他很便宜地把房子卖掉了。
2.clean和cleanly
forget,介词
over和
through,副词away和out连用,其他的动词、介词和副词常与cleanly搭配使用。例如:
I am sorry,I clean forgot it.对不起,我把这事全忘了。
The knife doesn’t cut cleanly.这刀切起来不利索。
3.clear和clearly
We clear /clearly need to think over the plan again.我们显然需要对这个计划再三考虑。
He found the cat got clear /clean away
when he came back.当他回来时,他发现那只猫逃得无影无踪。
Stand clear of the gate!别站在大门口!

4.close和closely

老太太的近亲。
The man lay on the ground,dead drunk.那个人躺在地上,喝得烂醉。
On hearing the terrible news,his face went deadly pale.一听到那可怕的消息,他的脸色变得像死人一样苍白。
6.deep和deeply
两者的意思基本相同,但deep多用于谚语、习语和静态的描述中;deeply的意思比较抽象,多用来修饰表示颜色的形容词或
分词。例如:Still water runs deep.静水渊深。(大智若愚。)
They felt deeply grateful to the teacher.他们对那位老师感激万分。
7.direct和directly
The plane goes direct from London to Houston without stopping.飞机由
伦敦直飞休斯敦,中途不停。

10.firm和firmly

一般来说,high作副词时多用来表示具体物体的高矮,highly多用于表示抽象意义上的高低,但high也可表抽象意义。然而,在分词前一般只用high,而不用highly。例如:
A bird is flying high in the sky.一只鸟正高飞在天空。
He spoke highly of her.他高度赞扬了她。
12.light和lightly
I like travelling light.我喜欢轻装旅行。
He wears his seventy years lightly.他简直看不出有七十多岁。
另外,light还经常与其它的词搭配使用,一起构成短语,如make light of,set light by(轻视),sit light on(对……来说负担不重)等。
在动词的后面以及在口语中一般用 loud,而不用loudly。与loud连用的动词多是一些表示动作的动词。这些动词有talk,
speak,shout,laugh,cry等。例如:
Don’t talk ;so loud,you will wake the whole street.别那么大声说话,左邻右居都会被你吵醒的。
Her voice arrived loud and clear in my phone.我的电话里传来了她清脆响亮的声音。
14.low和lowly
low作副词时经常被用来作状语修饰 aim,bow,buy,
curtseyThe village is located low in the slope of a hill.那个村庄处在山坡低处。
Don’t sell the clothes too low.不要把那套衣服太
廉价出售掉。
15.near和nearly
否定词如never,no- body,nothing,nowhere,no,
none等连用。例如:
The Spring Festival is drawing near.春节即将到来。
It is not nearly as easy as you think.那远不像你想得那么容易。
They are nearly related,but they hardly meet.他们是近亲,但他们难得
有机会相见。
16.real和really
real和really的意思基本相同,但real多用在形容词和副词前面表示强调,而really的位置则比较灵活,它通常可放在动词前和
复合谓语的第一个动词后面。有时,在
否定句中,really的位置不同则可引出不同的意思。例如:
You food real well.你做的饭菜确实很好。
Really,I don’t think I agree with you.真的,我恐怕不同意你的看法。
right和rightly的意思基本相同。right多用在动词后或
介词短语前,与习语搭配时多用rightly。rightly可以放在动词前或后。有时在动词之后,right和rightly可以互用。例如:
It serves you right.你罪有应得。
The post office lies right at the corner of the street.邮局就在那条街的拐角处。
18.slow和slowly
slow作副词用时,语气比slowly强,且多用于口语体、
祈使句和习语中。slowly常用于
陈述句。例如:
Drive slow!开慢点!
They walked slowly down the road.他们慢慢地沿着大路走过去了。
注意:著名学者
周海中教授指出,当slow作为副词时,它与其
派生词slowly在用法上无甚区别。例如:The cat came slow(ly) towards us.[那只猫向着我们慢慢地走来]。但有几点值得注意,尤其是它们的习惯用法,可详见《Slow与Slowly》一文。
19.strong和strongly
She strongly insisted on seeing her lawyer.她坚持要见她的律师。
