備戰2019屆高考英語（通用版）一輪復習專題 形容詞和副詞
今天比昨天暖和得多。
【誤】it is fairly warmer today than yesterday.
【正】it is rather warmer today than yesterday.
(3)quite表示的程度比fairly深，表示主觀看法，可理解為“十分”。如：
the news is quite amazing.這個消息十分驚人。
(4)fairly只能用在不定冠詞之后；而quite和rather用于不定冠詞前、后皆可。如：
this is a fairly heavy/rather a heavy/a rather heavy/a quite heavy/quite a heavy job for us.對我們來說，這是一項相當繁重的工作。
另外，rather有時與褒義詞尤其是表示“好”的詞連用時，強調被修飾詞的程度，可與fairly，quite互換。如：your english is rather/fairly/quite good.你的英語相當好。
高考經常考查形容詞的辨析和副詞的辨析，所以我們在學習中要注意近義詞的用法差異。以下是常見的幾組近義詞：alone，lonely；living，alive，live，lively；likely，possible，probable；no more than，not more than；no less than，not less than；too much，much too；no longer，no more；almost，nearly。
典例：(XX高考英語浙江卷,6)i have been convinced that the print media are usually more ______ and more reliable than television.
