从此要正确理解much too和 too much的区别（完美篇）
大考小考中经常会出现这两个词组，如果没有出现，又能正确使用的话作文里其实也可以主动秀一把，那都是高分的节奏，请先看这个下面的试题：
---The meat is _____ delicious.
---Yes. but don't eat _____ .
A. too much: too much
B. much too: too much
C. too much: much too
D. much too; much too
【易错选项】选C
【易错原因】分不清 much too和 too much的区别。
【正确答案】B
【试题解析】句意为:“这肉太好吃了。”“是的,但不要吃太多。”much too修饰形容词或副词,表示“太,非常”; too much修饰不可数名词,表示“太多”。第一空修饰形容词 delicious,故用 much too;第二空空格后省略了不可数名词meat,用 too much修饰。
区别一：
1、too much+n 太多……（当然这个名词指的是不可数名词）
too much trouble 太多麻烦
2、much too+adj.（adv.）太……，非常……，在很大程度上太……
much too tired 太累了
区别二：
1、too much中的中心词是“much”，意为“太多...”,它既可作定语,用来修饰不可数名词,也可以
作状语,修饰动词；too much可以用作名词在句子中作主语或宾语，作形容词用在不可数名词前面作定语或在系动词后面作表语。和副词在句子中作状语。
