多个形容词修饰名词的顺序_语法技巧

多个形容词修饰名词时,其顺序为:
  限定词--数词--描绘词--(大小,长短,形状,新旧,颜色) --出处--材料性质,类别--名词
   a small round table
   a tall gray building
   a dirty old brown shirt
   a famous german medical school
   an expensive japanese sports car

典型例题:
1) tony is going camping with ___ boys. 
  a. little two other b. two little other  c. two other little  d. little other two
  答案:c。由"限定词--数词--描绘词--(大小,长短,形状,新旧,颜色) --性质--名词"的公式可知数词,描绘词,性质依次顺序,只有c符合答案。

2) one day they crossed the ____bridge behind the palace.
 a. old chinese stone   b. chinese old stone  c. old stone chinese  d. chinese stone old
 答案a. 几个形容词修饰一个名词,他们的排列顺序是:年龄,形状,大小+颜色+来源+质地+用途+国家+名词。

3) ---- how was your recent visit to qingdao?
 ---- it was great. we visited some friends,and spent the ___days at the seaside.
 a. few last sunny  b. last few sunny  c. last sunny few  d. few sunny last
答案:b。本题考查多个形容词的排序问题。一般与被修饰形容词关系密切的形容词靠近名词;如果几个形容词的重要性差不多,音节少的形容词在前,音节多的方在后,在不能确定时,可参照下表:

限定词+数量词(序数词在前,基数词在后)+性状形容词+大小、长短、高低等形体+
those + three + beautiful + large + square 

新旧+颜色+国籍+材料+名词
old + brown + wood + table
