用法辨析

adj. (形容词)

• better作“较好的,更好的”解时是good的比较级,可用far, much但不可用more, very修饰。但在作“渐愈或痊愈的”解时不用于比较结构,也不可用much修饰。
• better用作表语时,其后可接由that或if引导的从句,从句中的谓语动词常用虚拟式以委婉地表达建议或看法。

adv. (副词)

• better用作副词的基本意思是“更好地”,既可修饰动态动词,也可修饰静态动词。作“更,更大程度地”解时,与more同义,常与love, like, know, understand等表示心理感情的静态动词连用。
• better常用于be better off短语中,意思是“比较富裕,较舒服”,其后可接名词或动名词。better还常用在the better..., the more...结构中,意思是“越…就越…”。

n. (名词)

• better指“病好些了”，表示“不unwell些”，而不是“更well些”。I am better today, but not well yet. 如果在没有生病的前提下身体变强壮，不用better。
• had better属于习惯用语，had不可改成have，后接不含to的不定式。You had better go at once. 你最好马上去。
