频度副词:
是表示动作发生频率的词。
常见的有:
ever, never, rarely, seldom, once, often, occasionally, constantly, frequently, usually,continually, always 等。
例如:He often came to see us.
She always was late.
常见频度副词在表示程度上有别,按频率大小排列如下:
always(100%)>usually(80%)>often(60%)>sometimes(40%)>seldom(20%)>hardly (10%)>never(0%)
常见程度副词用法列举:
◆always 频率最高,表示动作重复、状态继续,表示“一直、总是”,其反义词为never。always等与not连用时,表示部分否定。如:
The rich are not always happy. 有钱的人并不总是快乐的。
如果要变为否定句,应将always改为never才能全部否定。如:
Li Ping is always late for school. 李平上学总是迟到。
Li Ping is never late for school. 李平上学从不迟到。(全部否定)
Li Ping is not always late for school. 李平上学不总是迟到。(部分否定)
频度副词通常和一般现在时连用,表示动作发生的频率。但always与进行时连用时,并不强调动作正在进行,而是表示赞叹、厌烦等情绪。如:
He is always thinking of others. 他总是想着别人。(赞叹)
She is always asking silly questions. 她总是问些愚蠢的问题。(厌烦)
The boy is always asking for money. 这个小男孩总是要钱。(厌烦)
◆usually意为“通常”,表示习惯性动作或状态,很少有例外。如:
We usually go to school at seven in the morning. 我们通常在早上七点上学。
My mother and I usually go shopping on Sundays. 我和妈妈通常在星期天去买东西。
◆Often意为“经常,时常”,表示反复性的动作或状态,中间有间断,不如usually那么频繁。其反义词是seldom。often在句尾时常被very或quite修饰。如:
It often rains here in April. 这儿四月份常下雨。
he boys often eat noodles and the girls sometimes eat them. 男生经常吃面条,女生有时吃。
I often chat with my friends under the big tree. 我经常在这棵大树下和朋友聊天。
He writes to his friends quite often. 他常给他的朋友写信。
◆sometimes意为“有时”,频率不及often,表示动作偶尔发生,间断时间较长。其位置比较灵活,放在句首、句中、句末都可。如:
Sometimes we go to the cinema and at other times we go for a walk.
有时我们去看电影,有时我们去散步。
I sometimes watch TV in the evening. 我有时晚上看电视。
My father has lunch in the factory sometimes. 我父亲有时在工厂吃午饭。
◆seldom意为“很少”;never意为“从不”。这两个副词表示否定意义,动作几乎不会发生。如:
He seldom eats breakfast. 他很少吃早餐。
The little girl seldom goes out. 这个小女孩很少外出。
I will never forget your kindness. 我永远忘不了你的好意。
The boys never eat chocolate and the girls seldom eat it. 男生从不吃巧克力,女生很少吃。
Btter late than never. [谚语] 迟到(迟做)总比不来(不做)好。
◆hardly具有否定意义,表示“几乎不、简直不”,除非特殊情况,否则不会发生。如:
The boy is so young that he could hardly understand it. 这个孩子太小了,不可能懂得这件事。
◆对上述频度副词提问时,用how often。如:
I write to my brother sometimes.
→How often do you write to your brother?
频度副词在句中不同位置的用法比较:
一、频度副词在否定句中的用法
在否定句中,有的频度副词位于否定词之前或之后均可,而有的频度副词则必须位于否定词之后,而还有的频度副词却必须要位于否定词。
大致情况如下:
1. 频度副词usually和often可位于否定词not之前或之后。
他们不常开这样的晚会。
正:They don’t often hold such parties.
正:They often don’t hold such parties.
星期日我们一般不在9点以前起床。
正:We don’t usually get up before nine on Sundays.
正:We usually don’t get up before nine on Sundays.
在否定句中,频度副词用于句中或句首,有时但会导致意思不同。
He doesn’t usually sleep for two days at a time. 他很少一连睡两天。
Usually he doesn’t sleep for two days at a time. 他连续两天不睡觉是常事。
2. 频度副词always总是位于否定词之后,不可位于否定句之前。
Things are not always what they seem to be. 外表往往是靠不住的。

你不能总是工作,有时出去放松一下会对你有好处。

3. usually有时也用于句末,其前不用修饰语。

5. always一般不用于句末,偶尔用于句末,此时它不表法“总是”,而表示“永远”。

另外,有时用于句末是因为句子有所省略的缘故。

他们一般在星期日一起散步,但并不总是如此。

三、频度副词位于句首的用法

另外,once a year (每年一次), twice a week (每周两次), three times a day (一天三次), every Saturday afternoon(每星期六下午)等,
这些时间状语也表示频率,它们可以和频度副词用在同一个句子中,表达上没有重复。如:
We usually go to the cinema four times a month. 我们通常一个月看四次电影。
频度副词的用法:
频度副词是副词的一种,在初中阶段常用的有四个,即always, usually,often,sometimes。它们的用法如下:
一、频度副词在句中的位置。
1.频度副词在句中习惯上位于be动词、助动词之后,行为动词之前。如:
She is often late for school.她上学经常迟到。
He usually goes to bed at about 12.他通常(午夜)十二点钟睡觉。
When do you usually get up in the morning?早上你通常什么时候起床?
2.sometimes是个特殊的频度副词,既可以放在be动词、助动词之后,行为动词之前,也可以放在句首,还可以放在句尾。如:
I sometimes think that it is a great mistake.我有时想这是一个大错。
Sometimes I help my mother in the house.有时候我帮助妈妈做家务。
3.often可以放在句中,也可放在句尾,习惯上不放在句首。如:
We have been there quite often.我们经常到那儿去。
She writes to me often. 她经常给我写信。
4.如果有两个助动词,频度副词通常放在第一个助动词后面。如:
We have never been invited to one of their parties. 他们聚会,一次也没邀请过我们。
She must sometimes have wanted to run away. 她有时候一定想到过要逃走。
5.这些频度副词的位置与句中谓语动词有无助动词有关。句中没有助动词时,副词置于动词be之后,其它动词之前。
频度副词位于助动词之前两种情况:
①为了表示强调,频度副词有时也可位于动词be、助动词、情态动词之前,此时助动词等应重读。如:
She always was late. 她老是迟到。
I never can remember. 我永远也记不住。
②在简略答语中,当频度副词与动词be、助动词或情态动词位于句末时,频度副词必须前置。
?“Philip is late again.”
?“Yes, he always is.”
?“菲利普又迟到了。”
?“是的,他总是迟到。”
? “Can you park your car near the shops?”
?“Yes. I usually can.”
? “你可以在商店附近停车吗?”
?“是的,通常可以。”
6.频度副词后的动词可以是动词的任何形式,具体什么形式和频度副词本身没有关系。
如:
I have never been to the moon.
He sometimes goes to school by bike.
二、表示频度方面的区别:
1.always是频度最大的词,意为"总是;永远"。如:
I shall always remember my first day at school.我将永远记住我上学的第一天。
2.usually意为"通常",即很少例外,频度仅次于always。如:
What do you usually have for breakfast?你通常早餐吃什么?
3.often意为"经常",在频度上不如usually那么频繁。如:
Li Ping often does his homework in the afternoon.李平经常在下午做作业。
4.sometimes意为"有时候",频度比often小,表示动作偶尔发生,间断较大。如:
1.I sometimes go to the library.我有时去图书馆。
2.Sometimes I read a book in the evening.我有时在晚上看书。
三、频度副词与not连用时,表示部分否定;对频度副词进行提问时,要用how often。如:
1.A great scholar is not always a very wise man.大学者未必一定是极聪明的人。
2.We go to the cinema sometimes.(对划线部分提问)
How often do you go to the cinema?
