形容词的比较级和最高级
1、形容词的比较级和最高级规则：
① 一般的形容词后面直接加er或est
② 以e结尾的形容词后面直接加r或st
③ 以辅音字母加y结尾的形容词，把y变i，后面加er或est
④ 以短元音加辅音结尾的形容词，双写辅音，后面加er或est
⑤ 少数形容词的比较级和最高级是不规则的
⑥ 多音节形容词
较高比较级：more，the most
较低比较级：less，the least
判断音节：如果音标中有一个元音就是单音节；有两个元音就是双音节；有多于两个元音就是多音节。
2、形容词的比较级和最高级的用法
比较级只用于两者之间，通常与than连用。形容词比较级之所指如果很清楚，也可以独立存在；最高级用于三者或三者以上。形容词的最高级在使用时必须加定冠词，并常伴有一个表示范围的介词短语或从句。
long——longer（than）——longest（be+ the longest+ 表示范围的短语或从句）
This is the longest river I have ever seen.
大多数两个以上音节的形容词可与more/less连用构成其比较级形式，与most/least连用构成其最高级形式。
This model’s less expensive than that one.
The other model’s more expensive.
