6.在肯定句中通常不说like sth much
The boy likes football, but doesn’t likebasketball.
A. much, muchB. much, very muchC. very much, muchD. very much, very
许多同学只是认为very much比much语气强,除此之外,其用法是完全一样的。如果这样想,那就错了。按英语习惯,副词much修饰动词时,通常只用于否定句或疑问句中,不能用于肯定句中(除非其前有very, too, so之类的修饰语)。如:
正:He doesn’t like her much.(单个的much用于否定句,故对)
正:He doesn’t much like her.(单个的much用于否定句,故对)
正:Does he like her much?(单个的much用于疑问句,故对)
正:Does he much like her?(单个的much用于疑问句,故对)
正:He likes her very[too, so]much.(much前有修饰语,故对)
误:He likes her much./He much likes her.(单个的much用于肯定句,且其前无修饰语,故错)
综合以上分析,上题最佳答案应为C。单个的much有时也能在肯定句中修饰动词。但这类动词只限于reGREt, admire, prefer, appreciate等个别动词,且只能放在句中,不可放在句末。如:
正:We much appreciate your invitation.我们非常感激你的邀请。
误:We appreciate your invitation much. (若改用very much则完全可以)
