其实除了少数前置和后置意思有变化的形容词外 多数后置定语是表示强调了
很多时候前置和后置没有硬性要求

一、形容词作后置定语的几种情况

1. 当形容词修饰由 any-, every-, no-, some- 和 -body,-one, -thing 等构成的复合不定代词时,形容词需要后置。例如:

Is there anything wrong with the machine?

2. 当形容词修饰起名词作用的 anywhere , somewhere 时,通常后置。例如:

Can you find anywhere safe?

3. 以 -able 或 -ible 结尾的形容词一般充当后置定语,表示暂时的特征或现象,而且中心名词前大多有形容词最高级或 all, only, every 等。例如:

This is the earliest edition obtainable.

That's the only star visible now.

4. 以字母 a- 开头的表语形容词,如 asleep, awake, afraid, afloat, alive 等作定语时,通常后置。例如:

The baby awake is looking here and there.

He was the only man alive in the accident.

5. else 修饰疑问代词时,须后置。例如:

What else can I do for you?

6. 当形容词前有 so, more, most 等词修饰时,常后置。例如:

He could not have chosen a time more favorable.

7. 形容词短语通常后置,其功能相当于一个定语从句。例如:

Those brave enough to receive the challenge must be the top students in the grade.

8. 两个或两个以上的形容词用 and 或 or 连接作定语,表示强调意义时要后置。例如:

Countries, big or small, should be equal.

9. 形容词比较结构须后置定语。例如:

So far he hasn't found a book as valuable as this one.

迄今为止,他还找不到与这本一样有价值的其他书籍。

10. 有些形容词作前置定语时和后置定语时所表达的意义不同。例如:

a responsible man 一个可以信赖的人

a man responsible 一位应负责任的人

the present people 现在的人们

the people present 在场的人们本回答被提问者采纳

形容词修饰名词放前面,而当形容词形容的是人的一个状态的时候(伴随状语)如:He
goes
to
school
upset...他很悲伤地上学来...这时形容词放后面做后置状语,指的是这个人的状态,而不是他的动作
