VOA慢速英文第5课 Greatest Vacation of A…

Anna

“Do you need a vacation?” Wow. That was the best vacation I have ever had … in my head. A beach is much better than here. I need a vacation!

“你需要度假吗？”哇。那是我有过最好的假期……在脑子里。海滩比这儿好多了。我需要度假！

I hear you, Anna. I need a vacation too but not at the beach. Sand is not good for robots! When we compare things, we use special forms of adjectives. "Better" is a comparative adjective. "Best" is a superlative adjective. It shows that one thing has more of ...something than ALL of the others. Try to find more of these adjectives. Look for ER or EST at the end.

我懂你，安娜。我也需要度假，但不要去海滩。沙子对机器人不好！比较事物时，形容词要用特殊形式。better 是比较级。best 是最高级，表示某样东西比其他所有都更……找找更多这样的形容词。注意词尾的 ER 或 EST。
