第三节 副词在句中的位置

副词在句中的位置比较灵活,放在句首、句中、句尾都有可能,这是副词的优点,但同时给英语学习者带来了麻烦,往往难以抉择副词的位置,TOEFL出题者也借此大做文章,给考生制造障碍,在填空题、改错题中都涉及语序问题

几点参考规则:
1. 多数副词放在修饰的动词之后,若动词有宾语则放在宾语之后,如:
She sings very well.
I met your uncle(动词的宾语) just now.
I met just now your uncle (错)

2. 副词修饰形容词、介词短语、副词时常放在被修饰成分之前,如:
These two are only slightly different.
right after this,  very smoothly
当然,副词enough是一个例外,要放在修饰成分的后面,如:
 I am not good enough to do this job. (对)
 I am not enough good to do this job. (错)

3. 表示频率的副词常放在实意动词之前,be动词之后,如:
He  often/ always/ rarely/seldom/never  play(实意动词) tennis.
He is always here at 8'clock.  (be动词之后)

4. 部分副词的位置没有一定的规定,原则上接近被修饰词即可,如:
only, even, still, perhaps, etc.

例题:
(1)
When rainbows appear, they are always in the part of the sky opposite directly the Sun.
应改为:directly opposite.
解释:opposite 与the Sun 构成介宾短语, 修饰副词directly必须置于opposite之前

(2)
Amoebas are ---- small to be seen without a microscope.
  (A) far too
  (B) far and
  (C) so far
  (D) as far as

答案:A
解释:空格前是句子的主谓语,空格处需要small的修饰语,B, C, D都不能修饰形容词, 故选A, 由副词too修饰small,副词far用来加深程度
