课文原文
I am an art student and I paint a lot of pictures. Many people pretend that they understand modern art. They always tell you what a picture is ‘about’. Of course, many pictures are not ‘about’ anything. They are just pretty patterns. We like them in the same way that we like pretty curtain material. I think that young children often appreciate modern pictures better than anyone else. They notice more. My sister is only seven, but she always tells me whether my pictures are good or not. She came into my room yesterday. ‘What are you doing?’ she asked. ‘I’m hanging this picture on the wall,’ I answered. ‘It’s a new one. Do you like it?’ She looked at it critically for a moment. ‘It’s all right,’ she said, ‘but isn’t it upside-down?’ I looked at it again. She was right! It was!

1.2.2 副词派生
critical → critically
本课例句:

成分分析:
- young children:主语(带有评价性形容词young)

- modern pictures:宾语
- better than anyone else:比较状语
【理解关键】
"better than anyone else" 表示最高级含义

【语法要点】
the same...that 结构中的 that 不可替换为 which
