形容詞最高級前通常必須用定冠詞 the，副詞最高級前可不用。

(對)Tom is the tallest of the three brothers.

2) 下列詞可修飾最高級，by far， far， much， mostly， almost

注意：

a. very可修飾最高級，但位置與much不同。

This is the very best.

This is much the best.

b. 序數(shù)詞通常只修飾最高級。

Africa is the second largest continent.

3) 句型轉(zhuǎn)換：

4) "否定詞語+比較級"，"否定詞語+ so… as"結(jié)構(gòu)表示最高級含義。

=Nothing is easier than this.

=This is the easiest thing.
