enough 的位置
enough 修饰形容词、副词时放在它们后面,修饰名词时放在前面。
adj / adv + enough / enough + 名词 / … enough to do
要点
  1. 修饰形容词、副词要后置:old enough,quickly enough,good enough。
  2. 修饰名词要前置:enough water,enough time,enough money。
  3. 「足够……做某事」= adj / adv + enough + to do:He is strong enough to carry the box.
  4. 否定式 not ... enough to do 表「不足以」:She is not tall enough to reach the shelf.
  5. enough 也能单独作代词:Have you got enough?
  6. enough 修饰名词时占的是限定词的位置,前面不能再加 a / the / my:enough time(不说 an enough time)。
  7. 句子的"做某事的人"与主语不同时,to do 前要挂 for:The box is light enough for me to carry.
  8. enough 后可跟 of + 名词,也能单独作代词:enough of the talk(别再说了)/ Have you got enough?
例句

这孩子已经大到可以独自上学了。

易错提示
  • 中文说「足够好」,英文必须 good enough,写 enough good 就错了。
  • to ... too ... to 与 adj + enough to 意思相反,可互相改写:He is too young to do it = He is not old enough to do it.
  • 记「名前形后」四个字:修饰名词放前面,修饰形容词副词放后面 —— enough water 但 big enough。
  • 别在 enough 与 to do 中间塞宾语或 for doing:enough money to buy the bike(不写 enough money for buying the bike)。
