一、频度副词的特点FONT face=宋体>频度副词表示动作发生的次数,常见有的ever, never, rarely, seldom, once, often, occasionally, constantly, frequently, usually, continually, always 等。
  
二、频度副词在句中的位置频度副词通常位于实意动词之前,动词be、助动词、情态动词之后。如:He often comes to see us. 他常来看我们。He is seldom late for school. 他上学很少迟到。有时为了强调,频度副词也可位于动词be、助动词等之前。如:She always was late. 她老是迟到。有的频度副词可位于句末(尤其受very, only修饰时)。如:修饰时I get paid on Fridays usually. 我通常在星期五领工资。We go out very seldom. 我们很少外出。Do you go to the cinema very often? 你常去看电影吗? 有的频度副词(如sometimes, often, usually, frequently, occasionally等)可位于句首(此时多半是因为强调或对比)。如:Sometimes he went there by bus. 有时他坐公共汽车去那儿。Very often the phone rings when I’m in the bath. 电话经常在我洗澡时响。

【注】含有否定意义的频度副词置于句首时,其后要用倒装语序。如:Never have I been there. 我从未去过那儿。Never have I been there. Seldom does he see a film. 他很少看电影。另外,频度副词always 和 never通常不位于句首,除非是祈使句。如:
  
时刻记住这一点。
  
晚上千万不要出去。
  
三、频度副词在否定句中的位置在否定句中,有的频度副词可位于否定词not之后或之前(如usually, often),有的频度副词则必须位于否定词之后(如always, constantly, continually, continuously,均含有“连续不断”之意),而有的频度副词却必须要位于否定词之意not之前(如sometimes, frequently)。如: He doesn’t usually come here. / He usually doesn’t come here. 他通常不来这儿。She doesn’t always come late. 她并非总是迟到。She doesn’t (不能说 always doesn’t)He is sometimes not responsible for what he does. 他有时对所做的事不负责任。
