slow 与slowly的用法区别
两者都可表示“慢”,但slow通常只与少数动词(如 go, drive, pass, climb, run, walk 等)连用,且应置于其后;而slowly则用法较广,且可置于动词之前或之后,有时还可置于句首。如:
He walked slowly [slow] up the path. 他沿着那条小路慢慢地走着。
She slowly opened the door. 她慢慢地把门打开。
Slowly, things began to improve. 情况渐渐有了好转。
Negotiations were going slowly, and not well. 谈判进展缓慢,也不顺利。
It is a good habit to eat slowly. 吃东西慢一点是好习惯。
He walked slowly past the house. 他从屋旁慢慢走过。
The balloon rose up slowly into the air. 气球冉冉升入空中。
Then the audience dispersed slowly. 然后观众慢慢散去。
【注】在某些特殊句型(如感叹句等)中,slow也可放在主语之前。如:
How slow [slowly] the time passes! 时间过得真慢!
The slower you drive, the safer you are. 车开得越慢就越安全。
