1. 比较级的修饰语有 far, even, still, a great deal, a bit, rather, three times, any, no, very much 等。如:
This is very much cheaper. 这个便宜得多。
Do you feel any better today? 你今天感觉好点儿了吗?
This one is even more expensive. 这个更贵些。
2. 最高级的常见修饰语有 (by) far, much, nearly, almost, not quite, second 等。如:
He is by far the best of all the students. 他是所有这些学生中最好的。
He is almost the tallest here. 他差不多是这儿最高的。
This is much the worst book of all. 这是所有书中最最糟糕的一本。
very不能修饰比较级,却可修饰最高级,但它与一般的修饰最高级的副词有所不同,即它要放在最高级前的定冠词之后,而不是之前:
This is the very best one. 这是最最好的。
另外,second, third等也要放在定冠词之后:
The Yellow River is the second longest river in China. 黄河是中国第二长河流
