方式副词：如：carefully, fast, angrily, warmly, suddenly, slowly, really, excitedly

副词按照其句法功能，一般分为以下4类：
一般副词包括上述时间、地点、程度、频度等副词，主要在句中作状语，定语、表语、宾语补足语和介词宾语。
疑问副词，如：how, when, where. why 放在特殊疑问句句首。
关系副词，如：when, where, why, whether, 引导定语从句。
连接副词，如：how, when, where, why, whether, 引导名词性从句。
2． 频度副词通常放在动词前面，如：
I hardly ever heard him singing. 我几乎从未听他唱过歌。
They occasionally saw him walking along the river bank. 他们偶尔看见他在河边散步。

如果句子里有情态动词、助动词或动词be, 就放在这类动词（的第一个）的后面，例如：
