4)程度副詞
程度副詞多數(shù)用來修飾形容詞和副詞,有少數(shù)用來修飾動詞或介詞短語。常見的程度副詞有:much, (a) little, a bit, very, so, too, enough, quite, rather, pretty, greatly, completely, nearly, almost, deeply, hardly, partly等。例如:

(2)副詞在句中的位置
1)多數(shù)副詞作狀語時放在動詞之后。如果動詞帶有賓語,則放在賓語之后。例如:
Mr Smith works very hard.
She speaks English well.
2)頻度副詞作狀語時,通常放在行為動詞之前,情態(tài)動詞,助動詞和be動詞之后。例如:
He usually gets up early.
I’ve never heard him singing.
She is seldom ill.
3)程度副詞一般放在所修飾的形容詞和副詞的前面, 但enough作副詞用時,通常放在被修飾詞的后面。例如:
It is a rather difficult job.
He runs very fast.
He didn’t work hard enough.
4)副詞作定語時,一般放在被修飾的名詞之后。例如:
On my way home, I met my uncle.
The students there have a lot time to do their own research work.
(3)部分常用副詞的用法
1) very, much
這兩個副詞都可表示“很”,但用法不同。Very用來修飾形容詞和副詞的原級,而much用來修飾形容詞和副詞的比較級。例如:
She is a very nice girl
I’m feeling much better now.
Much可以修飾動詞,而very則不能。例如:
I don’t like the idea much.
They did not talk much.
