年年考的nevera 比较级句型

在英语考试中,经常会见到 never…a better 之类的用法,你知道它是什么意思吗?请看下面一题: How beautifully she sings! I have never heard __________ voice. A. a better B. a best C. the better D. the best 【陷阱】容易误选D,认为最高级前要用定冠词。 【分析】其实此题最佳答案为A,该句可视为…I have never heard a better voice than her voice 之省略,全句句意为“她唱得多好啊!我从未听过她这么好的声音”。请再看以下类似的实例: He is fine, never better. 他很好,比以往任何时候都好。 This bird is really lovely. I’ve never seen a finer one. 这只鸟真可爱,我从未见过这样好看的鸟。 比较以下试题,情形也大致相同: (1) “I’ve never found a better job.” “_______.” A. I don’t think so B. Too bad C. Congratulations D. Don’t worry 答案选C,I’ve never found a better job可视为 I’ve never found a better job than this job 之省略,句意为:我从来没有找到比这份工作更好的工作,即这是我所找到的最好的工作。 (2) “What do you think of the service here?” “Oh, ______. We couldn’t have found a better place.” A. too bad B. sorry C. wonderful D. impossible 答案选 C。We couldn’t have found a better place 可视为We couldn’t have found a better place than this place,其意为“我们不可能找到一个比这个地方更好的地方”,即“这是我们所能找到的最好的地方”。 (3) Boris has brains. In fact, I doubt whether anyone in the class has _____IQ. A. a high B. a higher C. the higher D. the highest 答案选B,句意为“……我怀疑班上有没有哪个人比他智商更高”,即“我认为他可能是班上智商最高的”。 (4) How cold it is! We’ve never had ______ this winter. A. the colder day B. a cold day C. the coldest day D. a colder day 答案选 D。句意为“今年冬天我们还从未遇上过这样冷的日子”。 实际上,就是一种否定的比较级表示最高级句型。 最后,再分享一个句子: My natural mother has never communicated with me 我的亲生母亲从未和我联系过。 《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》
