区分barely,hardly,scarcely,merely,almost
同志们,四六级词汇里有几个副词都含有“几乎”的意思,如barely,hardly,scarcely,merely,almost,区分如下：
barely意为“仅仅,刚好,正好”,表示肯定意义,常和enough,sufficient等词连用,如be barely enough勉强够；hardly意为“几乎不”,强调几乎不可能,表示否定意义,常和情态动词can,could连用,如could hardly see几乎看不见；scarcely意为“几乎不,几乎没有”,强调频度或数量不足,如scarcely ever used the generator几乎从未用过这台发动机；merely意为“仅仅,只,不过”,表示肯定意义,如be merely the beginning,仅仅是个开头；almost意为“几乎,差不多”,表示肯定意义,如almost fall差一点儿跌倒.——摘自《大学英语四级词汇新大纲黑白记忆》（王长喜编）

Hardly 和一个否定词在一起的用法在标准英语中应尽量避免,一些批评学家一直怀疑象hardly,rarely 和 scarcely 这样的副词在传统的双重否定的句中应被视为否定词,这样的词使句子象I couldn't hardly see him 和 I didn't get none 一样被弄糟了,他们争论说,毕竟句子Mary hardly laughed 的意思是玛丽的确笑了,而不是她没笑,所以不表示否定的建议.但是hardly 和 scarcely 和其他的否定表示一起在许多方面出现,举例说,他们和象any 和 at all 这样独特的和否定上下文联系的条目组合在一起,我们说I hardly saw him at all 或 I never saw him at all ,但并不是I occasionally saw him at all； 我们说I hardly had any time 或 I didn't have any time 但不是I had any time 等.象其它否定副词,hardly 在句子开头时引起主语和助动词的倒装,于是我们说Hardly had I arrived when she left,和 Never have I read such a book 或 At no time has he condemned the movement.等同样的句型.别的副词并不用这样的倒装：我们不能说Occasionally has he addressed this question 或 To a slight degree have they changed their position .事实是象hardly 这样的副词语义上是否定的,他们限定修饰了与不发生有关的状态或事件.于是hardly 的意思大概是“几乎根本不”； rarely 的意思大概是“实际上没有”；等等.
