形容词作状语表示原因、时间、伴随情况或结果，并不表达动词的方式。大多与全句用逗号隔开，可置于句首、句中或句末。形容词作状语可以用在正式的英语中.

一.形容词(短语)置于句首常作原因状语

1.Helpless, we watched our home destroyed before our eyes.

我们束手无策,只能眼睁睁地看着自己的家园被毁掉.

2.Modest and easy to approach, he soon put everyone completely at ease.他是那样谦虚,平易近人,很快使大家放松下来.

3. Much interested , he agreed to give it a try.

他很高兴，答应试一试.

4.Afraid of being cut off , they lost no time in turning back.

由于害怕被切断,他们赶紧退了回去.

二形容词(短语)置于句末常作伴随状语或方式状语

1.After the war , the soldiers returned home , safe and sound.

战争结束后,那些士兵平安回到了家.

2.Seeing the snake , all the frightened girls stood there , unable to speak.

看到那条蛇,所有的女孩站在那里,吓得说不出话来.

3.The goat rolled over, dead. 那只山羊翻了下去,死了.

三形容词(短语)还可以作时间状语

1.Ripe , these apples are sweet.

这些苹果熟了的时候很甜.

2.Young, my grandfather had to work for the landlord all year. 年轻时，我爷爷不得不长年给地主干活。）

注：⒈有时形容词（短语）可修饰整个句子。如：

Strange to say,he didn't pass his exam after all.(=Strangely〈enough〉,he didn't pass his exam after all.

2形容词作状语表示原因时，可看作是being现在分词短语作状语。如：

(Being) Poor，he couldn't send his son to school.(因为贫穷，他不能送儿子上学。）

⒊形容词作状语，逻辑主语通常是句中主语，但 有时也可以是句中宾语。如： George glared at his boy now naughty.
