Pre-reading
1. Look around your school and list all the equipment, people and plans that are needed to run a school. In order to run a school, we need buildings as classrooms and offices, a playground for the students to exercise, desks and chairs, blackboards and brushes, teachers and workers, and a lot of other things.

语法：
（一）本类词有hard，hardly；late，lately；most，mostly等等，这两种副词形式含义完全不同，所以 ，使用时不易引起混淆。
1.He works hard all day.他整天都在使劲地干活。
He hardly works at all.他很少干活。
2.You have come too late.你来得太晚了。
Have you see him lately?你最近见到过他吗？

7.The exam was pretty difficult.这次考试相当难。

（二）这类词主要有wide，widely；close， closely ；high，highly等 等，这两种副词形式不同，含义 也有差别，但是没有第一类的区别明显，而且 翻译成汉语时用词也很接近。所以使用时很容易混淆。这类词含 义及用法上的 主要特点是：不带-ly的副词表示具体的行为和动作，说明的动作或状况有可测 量性和可见性；而 以-ly结尾的同源副词所表达的常常是抽象性的行为和状况。 这时，这些词大都具有"greatly"和"extremel y"的含义。试作如下比较：
1.Do you see that butterfly flying high above the street?你是否看见那只蝴蝶在街道上方高高飞舞着？
The distinguished guests were highly praised.贵宾们受到了高度赞扬。 2.He flung the door wide open.他猛地把门开得大大的。

8.Mr. Cole tends to speak rather loud.科尔先生说话声音总是很大。
Mr. Cole boasted loudly of his power. 科尔先生大肆夸耀自己的权力。
（三）这类词主要有slow，slowly；quick，quickly等等异形同义词。当 然，现代英语的语言规范性要求 用以-ly 结尾的副词来修饰动词，但由于句子 结构以及搭配的不同，使用时也具有不同的倾向性。在此，主要 探讨一下在什 么情况下常使用不带-ly的副词形式。同时， 把第二类中一些适应于下列规则 的词也包括进去。 总的说来，倾向于使用不带-ly副词形式的情况大致有下列 四种：
Ⅰ 用作比较级或最高级时：
1.Allen was walking quickly, but George was walking evenquicker.艾伦走得很快，但乔治走得更快 。
2.The men were quarreling loudly, but the policemenshouted louder.那些人在大声争吵着，但 是警察喊叫得更响。
3.The car went slower and slower until it came to a stand still.汽车走得越来越慢，最后停了下 来。
4.Let's see who can run quickest.我们来看看谁跑得最快。
5.We must look closer at the problem. 我们必须更加仔细地查看这一问
题。 Ⅱ 有"so"或"too"修饰时：
1.It all happened so quick that I could do nothing. 这一切发生得如 此之快以致于我手足无措无
法 对付了。
2.It is impossible to overtake him; your car goes tooslow.不可能赶 上他了，你的车太慢了。
3.Don't talk so loud; the child is in bed now.别这样大声说话，孩子 已经睡了。
Ⅲ 用于修饰表示移动、天气等常用动词时：
1.Come quick; we are waiting for you. 快来，我们在等你。
2.Drive slow; this part of the road is dangerous.车开慢一点，这段 路很危险。
3.The sun shines bright.阳光明媚。
4.When we left the shelter, the snow was falling thickand the wind was blowing cold.我们 离开那棚屋时，正下着大雪，刮着寒风。
5.Business is going strong.生意兴隆。
Ⅳ 在固定词组中或当用于修饰它经常固定搭配的动词时：
1.Take it easy.不要紧张。
2.Stand firm and hold it tight.站稳抓牢。
3.He often plays high.他赌注常下得很大。
4.The secretary copied the rough draft of her manager outfair.秘书 把经理那份粗潦的草稿很清 楚地誊写出来。
5.They were drinking deep in the fort deep into the night.他们在城 堡中痛饮到深夜。
通过观察，以上三类词中第一类较易区别、掌握和使用。对于后两类词，在 判别使用哪一种副词形式时一 般可以考虑以下几个原则：第一是具体性与抽象 性的原则。在表示实实在在的物体活动、位置移动或具体可见 的状况和变化时， 常使用不带-ly的副词形式，如：climb high，live close by，open wide，sink deep，tu rn sharp right；反之，具有抽象含义的动词常用以-ly结尾的副词， 如：think highly of，look closely into，love dearly等等。第二个原则就是常用固定搭配与灵活搭配的不同。 在一些固定词组或经常搭配使用 的词组中，不带-ly 的副词形式使用得很多， 如aim high，run high，fight fair，goeasy with，drink de ep，sleep sound 等等。第三个原则是口语体与标准体的使用区别。如有人说"Speak loudly and clearly. "也有人说"Speak loud and clear."对此情况难说谁对谁错，只能 说前一种说法属于规范性语体；而后一种 说法属于口语体。不带-ly 的简单形 式是早期英语遗留下来的口语体形式。例如现在还有人说"I badneed t his sort of material."就如G.O.寇姆在〈英语句法〉（Syntax）一书中说过的，带-ly 的副词是标准语或 好的口语， 但在松散的口语和大众语中人们仍然坚持使用没 有-ly的简单形式。
根据以上原则，可以解释为什么可以说"Don't talk so loud. "但必须说 "He protested／complained loudly。"Talk loud 是常用的搭配形式，而且talk一词的形象也比较具 体；protest与complain 则是搭配性 很强的词， 还常常和许多别的副词灵活 搭配， 如publicly，sharply，secretly等等。另外，这两个词比tal k更具 感情色彩，所以也就更具抽象性。
