可修饰比较级的词

1)a bit，a little，rather，much，far，by far，many，a lot，lots，a great deal，any，still，even等

2)还可以用表示倍数的词或度量名词作修饰语。

3)以上词(除by far)外，必须置于比较级形容词或副词的前面。

man y，old 和far

1)如果后接名词时，much more +不可数名词

many more +可数名词复数

2)old 有两种比较级和最高级形式：older/oldest 和elder/eldest. elder，eldest 只用于兄弟姐妹的长幼关系。

My elder brother is an engineer.

Mary is the eldest of the three sisters.

3)far 有两种比较级，farther，further. 在英语中两者都可指距离。

在美语中，farther 表示距离，furthe r表示进一步。

the + 最高级 + 比较范围

=It is a very important problem.

注意：使用最高级要注意将主语包括在比较范围内。

(错)Tom is the tallest of his three brothers.

(对)Tom is the tallest of the three brothers.

4)“否定词语+比较级”，“否定词语+ so… as”结构表示最高级含义。
