6.too much和much too的区别

①too much有下列用法

too much的含义是“太多”，充当形容词用时，too是副词，用来修饰much，后接不可数名词。

I have too much homework to do.我有太多的家庭作业要做。

too much充当副词用时，可用来修饰动词

Watching TV too much is bad for your health.看电视看得太多对你的健康有害。

too much充当代词用时，后面不接名词，代替上下文提到的事物。

You gave me too much.你给我的太多了。

②much too意为“太”，much(副词)用来修饰too(副词)，以加强语气，只可起副词作用，在句中修

饰形容词或副词。

It’s much too expensive.太贵了。

You walk(much)too far yesterday.昨天你散步走得太远了。

It’s much too cold.

5.体现两句间逻辑关系的连接性副词

解决这类问题，首先要弄清形容词和副词真正含义，在解题时要弄清上下文的逻辑关系。

常用的此类词有：besides而且、再说,instead而是，反而,though不过，可是，然而,however不过，仍然，然而,thus/therefore因此，所以,furthermore/moreover此外，而且，再者,otherwise/or否则，不然,anyhow/anyway反正，不管怎样,even so即便如此，即使这样,or rather更确切地说等等。

请看下列选择题：

①Progress so far has been very good. _______, we are sure that the project will be completed on time.

A. Howeve　　　　 B. Otherwise　　　　 C. Therefore　　　 D. Besides “一直进展良好”与“按时完工”是因果关系，用therefore。本题答案是C。

②The hurricane damaged many houses and business buildings;_____　　 , it caused 20 deaths.

A. or else　　　　 B. therefore　　　　 C. after all　　　　 D. besides

由前后语境不难确定，是要表示“此外，还有，而且”，用besides。其它选项不合语境：or so大约；therefore因此；after all毕竟。本题答案是D。

③Much of the power of the trade unions has been lost. _　　　　　 , their political influence should be very great. (2006广东) A. As a result　　　 B. As usual　　　　 C. Even so　　　　　 D. So far

由前后的语意逻辑可知，所填之词应是表示“即使如此”之意，用even so。句意：工会已经失去很多权力了；即使这样，他们的政治影响还应当还是很大的。本题答案是C。

4.搭配特别的形容词和副词

英语中有些形容词和副词与名词、动词、或另一形容词等的搭配与汉语不完全一样，在平时学习中通过运用要把它们掌握好。

特别要记住下列与汉语不同的表达方法：

well worth很值得　　　　　　　　　　 wide awake很清醒　　　　　　　

fast/sound asleep睡得很香　　　　　　　 largely due to…主要因为
