楼主建议的笔记版本:
副词辨析fairly,quite,rather,very,pretty都表示“很,非常,相当之类的意思”
这些词语气的轻重可大致描述为:(not) → fairly → quite → rather / pretty → very
fairly 语气最轻,经常与褒义词连用,可能是还勉强过得去而已。
quite 语气稍重虽不是最好,但至少值得欣赏。
rather 或 pretty 语气稍重(pretty 不如 rather 正式)。 rather / pretty good,相当不错,高出一般水平或出乎意料地好。
与褒义词连用,表示一种愉快的心情;与贬义(包括中性)词连用,表示一种不赞成或不满意的心情。
very 语气最强,是精品之作。
然后记下下面的句子,先自己翻译,然后读熟悉。读到口顺了就成。
This one is rather too large.
I quite agree with you.
We rather like the book.
It‘s quite /rather a good idea. / It’s a quite/rather good idea.
It was quite [rather] a success.
You‘re quite right (wrong).
That‘s quite impossible.
