 ♣ much too, too much
　这两个短语构成相同，顺序不同，其意思和用法的区别是：much too之后跟形容词、副词，用来加强语气；too much中的中心词是much, too在任何情况下都修饰much，之后可跟不可数名词，可单独使用，也可接of短语或代词，还可放在句尾修饰动词。例如：
　The trams are much too slow.　电车太慢。
　There is too much noise here.　这里的噪音太厉害。
　We're having too much wet weather.　我们这里下雨的日子太多。
　We have already taken up too much of your valuable time.　我们占用了你许多的宝贵时间。
　The room is big, too much so for a child.　这个房间对一个小孩来说太大了。
　He talked too much.　他讲得太多了。
 ♣ too, also, as well, besides, either, moreover
　这组词（组）都有“也，此外，还有”的意思。其区别是：also一般用于肯定句，有强调意味，位于主谓语之间，即实义动词之前，助动词之后；too只用于肯定句中，一般位于句末，比also更口语化；either一般只用于否定句，多位于句末；as well和too一样多用于口语，放在句末；besides与moreover词义基本相同，但moreover后面所叙述的，通常比前面所叙述更为重要或更深入一步，在词序方面， moreover往往用于句首，另外， moreover是较为正式的用语。例如：
　He also asked to go.　他也要去。
　I can also do it.　我也能干那个活。
　English is not easy, and French is not easy either.　英语不容易，法语也不容易。
　He is a teacher, and a writer as well.　他是个教师，也是个作家。

　The Opposition have consistently accused the Government of corruption. Moreover, they have named names.　反对党一直在指责政府腐败，而且是指名道姓的。
 ♣ too在句中的位置不同则引起句子意思的不同。试比较：
　

1. 这箱子太重搬不起来。
　［误］ This box is too heavy to lift it.
　［正］ This box is too heavy to be lifted.
　这东西你拿，可能太重了吧　?
　［误］ Will this be too heavy for you to carry it?
　［正］ Will this be too heavy for you to carry?
　［析］ 在too...to...的句子里，如果主语和宾语是同一物，则宾语不必重复。
2. 这孩子太小不能上学。
　［误］ The child is too young not to go to school.
　［正］ The child is too young to go to school.
　太热了，睡不着。
　［误］ It is too hot not to sleep.
　［正］ It is too hot to sleep.
　［析］ 在too...to...的结构中，动词不定式是以肯定形式表示否定意义，所以不能在不定式前再加not.
3. 你对我真是太好了。
　［误］ You are too much kind to me.
　［正］ You are much too kind to me.
　电车太慢。
　［误］ The trams are too much slow.
　［正］ The trams are much too slow.
　［析］ 用于加强语气时须用much too，其后跟形容词或副词。
4. 我不喜欢咖啡，我也不太喜欢茶。
　［误］ I don't like coffee, and I don't much like tea, too.
　［正］ I don't like coffee, and I don't much like tea, either.
　我也没看过这部片子。
　［误］ I haven't seen this film, too.
　［正］ I haven't seen this film, either.
　［析］ too和either都表示“也”，但too只用于肯定句中，在否定句中必须用either.
5. 雨下得太大，他们都回不了家。
　［误］ It rained too heavily that they could not go home.
　［正］ It rained so heavily that they could not go home.
　［析］ 在"too+形容词〔副词〕”后面不能与that从句连用。如用that从句， too就必须改成so.
6. 他是好心人，不会拒绝的。
　［误］ He is too kind person to refuse.
　［正］ He is too kind a person to refuse.
　［析］ 当too与一个形容词和一个单数名词连用时，名词前面必须带不定冠词，即"too+形容词+a/an+名词”，名词前没有不定冠词就不能用这个结构。
7. 对我来说，这汤太咸。
　［误］ The soup's very too salty for me.
　［正］ The soup's far too salty for me.
　这根绳子有点儿太短了。
　［误］ The rope is quite too short.
　［正］ The rope is a little too short.
　［析］ too不能与very, quite, fairly, pretty等副词连用，表示too的程度；可以使用much, far, a little, a lot等来修饰too.
8. 他太小，自己还不能穿衣。
　［误］ He is young enough to dress himself.
　［正］ He is too young to dress himself.
　［析］ enough和too后都可以接不定式作结果状语，但意思不同。too...to...意为“太…以至于不…”，含有否定意义；...enough to意为“足以…干…”。

　［同义词］ also, as well, very
　［词源］　古英语 <中古英语to（太，也）
