as good as与as well as

2016-06-06来源:和谐英语

as good asas well as

1. 用于本义,两者意为“与……一样好”,但 good 是形容词,而 well 是副词。如:

他说英语说得跟她一样好。

正:He speaks English as well as her.

正:His English is as good as hers.

2. 用于引申义,两者的意思很不相同:

(1) as good as 意为“几乎”“差不多”(=almost)。如:

He as good as said I’m a liar. 他无异于说我撒谎。

We’re as good as ruined. 我们差不多完蛋了。

习语be as good as one’s word意思是“说话算数”。如:

You’ll find that she’s as good as her word. 你能了解到她这个人很讲信用。

(2) as well as 表示“而且”。如:

She’s clever as well as beautiful. 她不但漂亮,而且聪明。

He speaks Spanish as well as English and French. 他不仅会说英语和法语,而且会说西班牙语。

该结构强调的重点是在前面一个词(体会以上例句的译文)。如:

A as well as B=not only B but also A

该结构连接两个成分作主语时,其后谓语通常与前面一个主语保持一致。如:

Mary as well as her friends is going to Paris. 玛丽和她的朋友要去巴黎。

与动词连用,动词通常要用动名词。如:

As well as breaking his leg, he hurt his arm. 他不但摔断了腿,而且还伤了胳膊。

He sings as well as playing the piano. 他不但会弹钢琴,而且会唱歌。

有时也可与主句动词的形式一致或用动词原形(但均不如用动名词常见)。如:

As well as eating [ate, eat] a seven-course meal, they drank three bottles of wine. 除吃了一顿有7道菜的饭之外,他们还喝了3瓶酒。
