as…as结构的几点用法说明

 

1. 基本用法

该结构的基本意思是“与……一样”,其中接形容词或副词的原级,在否定句中,第一个 as 也可换成 so。如:

He doesn't study as [so] hard as his brother. 他学习不如他弟弟努力。

2. 涉及数量或程度的用法

若涉及数量或程度,可用“as much+不可数名词+as”和“as many+可数名词复数+as”。如:

He doesn’t pay as much tax as we do / as us. 他没我们交的税款多。

There are not as many restaurants as there were. 现在餐馆没有过去多了。

3. 有关词序的一点说明

其间接形容词时,有时该形容词还可修饰另一名词,但这个名词应带有不定冠词(注意词序)。如:

I have as good a voice as you. 我的声音和你一样好。

4. 该结构的修饰语

根据情况可用(not) nearly, almost, just, nothing like, exactly, not quite, half, one-ten, twice, three times, 30 per cent等修饰,并且这些修饰语必须置于第一个as之前,而不能置于其后。如:

This room is twice as large as that one. 这个房间是那个房间的两个大。

You’re not half as clever us you think you are. 你远不是自己想像的那么聪明。

It took three times as long as I had expected. 这件事比我预料的多花了两倍的时间。
