Answer 1

D

考查形容詞比較級(jí)和其修飾詞。far修飾形容詞比較級(jí)，一般放在所修飾詞前表程度，在此要講解far與by far的區(qū)別。by far可以修飾比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)，但要注意其在句中的位置。It is by far the best film that I have ever seen./ It is the best film by far that I have ever seen./His work is better by far than that of any other printer in the city./Of the two girls, she is by far the better actress.當(dāng)by far與形容詞或副詞的比較級(jí)或最高級(jí)連用時(shí)，置于這類詞之后；若這類詞帶有冠詞the或a時(shí)，則置于這類詞前的均可。fairly一般不修飾比較級(jí)。
