a.It is fairly easy.Heoften came here.
b.John will comesoon.Wait here please.
c.Yesterday John‘sfather suddenly came here.

二、副词的普通用法
1.几乎所有副词可以用来修饰动词:
He diedhere.(地点)
He diedyesterday.(时间)
He diedsuddenly(方式)
Henearly(程度)died.
He hasprobably(肯定性)died.
2.程度副词可用来修饰下面的词:
a.形容词,b.另一副词,c.间或修饰动词:

b.He ran much fasterthan I.He speaks English fluently enough.He works toohard.

Mary is remarkably simple.
She is lamentably poor.
He is comfortably warm.
e.He ran tolerablyfast.
He writes immeasurably better than I.

注:出于语音上的考虑,副词及所修饰的副词不能同时都以-ly结尾,避免说 Heworks terribly slowly.(但可说 He’s terribly slow.)
3.表示a.程度,b.时间,或c.地点的副词可以用来修饰介词:
a. He is much against myproposal.
He failed entirelythrough his own fault.

He is quite ahero(=quite heroic).
He is regarded as rathera fool(=rather foolish).
He is almost achild(=almost childish).
Only Wang studiedEnglish last year.(No other students studied.)
Wang studied onlyEnglish last year.(not any other language)
(Even和almost的作用和only相同)
7.有些副词(多为地点副词)在修饰名词时,可以看作一个压缩的形容词从句(即定语从句):
He waited at the bridgethere(=that lay there).
His life abroad(=which was spentabroad)was hard.
The then king(=king thatreigned then)was cruel.
The above statement isfalse.
The up train(=train thatgoes up)comes at seven.

8.副词有时用在两个名词当中:
1)Latin words,namelytechnical terms,often keep their original pluralform.
2)Mr friends,especiallyMary,are very young.
9.有时副词出现在with和一名词中间:
10.When,where,why和 how可用来引起问句,也可同时用作副词和连词,也就是说,用作“关系副词”(RelativeAdverbs):
三、副词构成法
1.有些副词为简单副词(不带词尾):
often,out,quite,soon,home,back,
there,thus,seldom,ever
2.有些副词,特别是地点副词及时间副词,常常以加词尾的方式构成:
-ly(=every):yearly,monthly,daily,fortnightly
-ward(s)(=toward):backward(s),leftward(s),upward(s),homeward(s),eastward(s),onward(s),inward(s)
-wise,-ways:lengthwise,clockwise,likewise,otherwise;always,lengthways,sideways-long:headlong-ling(s):sideling(s)
-s:upstairs,outdoors,sometimes,nowadays,needs或在一些单音节词前加词头或其他简单字:
a-:along,away,abroad,apart,aside,adraft,aloud,ashore,across,above
be-:before,below,beneath,besides
介词:inside,overboard,uphill,beforehand,today
there-:therein(=inthat),thereafter,thereby,thereof,therewith,ect.(陈旧用法)
here-:herein(=inthis),hereafter,hereby,hereof,herewith,etc.(陈旧用法)
where-:wherein(=in whatorwhich),whereon,whereby,whereof,wherewith,ect.(陈旧用法)
3.绝大多数副词都由形容词以下述3种方式构成:
a.大多数方式副词,都在形容词后加-ly构成。英语中有若干对副词,其特点是后者通常在前者后加-ly所构成,常见的有:注意拼法:
