用法讲解
- better作“较好的,更好的”解时是good的比较级,可用far, much但不可用more, very修饰。但在作“渐愈或痊愈的”解时不用于比较结构,也不可用much修饰。
- better用作表语时,其后可接由that或if引导的从句,从句中的谓语动词常用虚拟式以委婉地表达建议或看法。
- better用作副词的基本意思是“更好地”,既可修饰动态动词,也可修饰静态动词。作“更,更大程度地”解时,与more同义,常与love, like, know, understand等表示心理感情的静态动词连用。
- better常用于be better off短语中,意思是“比较富裕,较舒服”,其后可接名词或动名词。better还常用在the better..., the more...结构中,意思是“越…就越…”。
- better用作名词时,既可指“较好的东西”,也可指“较好的人”。引申可表示“前辈”“上级”。
- better一般只用于单数形式,其前可加冠词; 作“前辈”“上级”解时常用于习语elders and betters中。
- better用作动词可表示“胜过,超越”,还可表示“改善”“提高”经济状况、社会地位、自然环境等,接名词或代词作宾语。可用于被动结构。
- better与oneself连用时常表示“提高自己的社会地位”
-
better指“病好些了”，表示“不unwell些”，而不是“更well些”。
I am better today, but not well yet.
如果在没有生病的前提下身体变强壮，不用better。 -
had better属于习惯用语，had不可改成have，后接不含to的不定式。
You had better go at once.
你最好马上去。 -
had better have结构的例句:
I think/thought I had better have gone already.
我以为你已经去了，实际上你没有去。 - Better go at once属于美国口语，同You had better go at once有相同意思。Better to go at once也是口语，同It is better to go at once有相同意思；
- You'd better go at once.句中的You'd可作You had，也可作You would，前者比较普遍些；
- better通常不用于订正或纠正错误。
- no better than, not better than, not any better than
-
- 这三个短语都可用于两者之间的比较,但含义各不相同。no better往往表示“两者都一样(不好)”; not better一般按字面意思来翻译,即“不比…好”; not any better则表示前者还不如后者,即“一点也不比…好”。试比较以下几个句子:
- He is no better than an idiot.
- 他愚蠢得像白痴一样。
- I'm not better than you in this respect.
- 在这方面我并不比你更高明。
- I think she is not any better than me in this respect.
- 我认为她在这方面一点也不比我强。
- better, improve
-
- improve与better意思相近,都指在原有基础上改进得更好。其区别是：
- 1.在提高的速度和水平上, improve比better更快更高。
- 2.better比improve更有生气和亲切感。
- 3.better和improve都可接反身代词再接介词in,前者指某人的社会经济地位向好的方面发展,后者指本身向更好的方面变化。例如:
- He has bettered himself in living condition.他的生活条件已大有改善。
- I wish to improve myself in drawing.但愿我在绘画方面有所长进。
- improve，better，perfect，refine
-
- 这些动词均有“改进、改善”之意。
- improve最常用词，多指状态或性质上的深刻或重要改进，也可指自身能力的提高。
- better多用于口语，指适当地改善原来并非很差的状态或性质，也指社会地位、经济状况的改善。
- perfect语义强，通常指使方法、技术等达到完善美好的境地。
- refine侧重指使语言、仪态等变得文雅、优美，也可指技艺等的提高。
