疑问词how后面可以接形容词和副词,如:
How soon will he be back? 他要多长时间才回来?
How long is he going to stay here? 他计划在这里呆多长时间?
How often do you go to the movies? 你常去看电影吗?
请问:除how soon, how long, how often外还有什么类似的使用方法?谢谢!
How 后接形容词或副词引出特殊疑问句,是英语中一个非常常见的表达,上面黎老师已给出一些非常典型的例子,其实能如此用的形容词和副词不少,下面再补充一些例子(这仍只不过其中的一小部分):
How badly
How badly was he hurt? 他伤得如何?
How broad
How broad is the river? 这条河有多宽?
How cold
How cold is it? 冷到什么程度?
How deep
How deep is that pool? 那个水池子有多深?
How good

How heavy

How high

How hot

How tall

▲但值得注意的,如此用的 how 一般与表示较高程度的形容词连用,通常不与较之于较低程度的形容词,如一般说 how old, 通常不说 how young;一般说 how long,通常不说 how short。但假如需要对较低的程度予以特别关注,也可将 How 与较低程度的形容词连用,如:
A:I think he’s too young for the job. 我想他干那工作大年轻。
B:How young ishe then? 那样他有多年轻呢?
A:We need a short article to fill the paper. 大家需要一篇短文填补报纸上的空白。
B:How short must it be? 它需要多短呢?
