文字稿
Hi, I'm Roy and today I'm going to tell you about using comparatives to say that someone or something is changing or developing.
So, the structure is like this:
Comparative + and + the same comparative.
So we put the 'and' in the middle of the two comparative adjectives.
Every year, I look older and older.
Don't forget that with adjectives of two or more syllables, like 'beautiful', we use the word 'more' + an adjective to make the comparative. We don't add '–er'.
With these, we add the 'and' in the middle of the two 'more's, for example:
Every day, my wife Luciana gets more and more beautiful.
Anyway, that's everything for today. I'm getting hungrier and hungrier, so I've got to go. Bye.
用法总结
1. 我们可以使用 “形容词比较级 + and + 重复该形容词比较级” 的结构来表达 “越来越……”。
Every year, I look older and older.
I'm getting hungrier and hungrier.
These trees will continue to grow bigger and bigger.
2. 有两个或以上音节的形容词比较级通常为 “more + 形容词原形”。在这种情况下，我们用 “more + and + more + 形容词” 的结构来表达 “越来越……”。
Every day, my wife Luciana gets more and more beautiful.
I found the show more and more interesting as time went on.
