as 的用法
1. 用作连词,表示让步(意为:虽然,尽管),要用于倒装句,且倒装后位于句首的名词通
常不用冠词(等于though, 但语气稍弱)。如:
Child as[though]he was, he did quite well. 他虽是个孩子,但已干得很不错。
2. 用作关系代词,主要用法有二。如:
(1)用在such, same, as等之后,引导限制性定语从句。如:
This is thesame watch as I lost. 这块表跟我丢失的那块一样。
Such men as (=Those men who) heard of him praised him. 听说过他的人都赞扬他。
(2)单独用作关系代词,引导非限制性定语从句,可放在主句之前(常译为:正如)或之后(常译为:这一点),且主从句之间一般要用逗号隔开。如:
He was abse nt, as is ofte n the case.他缺席了,这是常有的事。
As was expected, he succeeded at last .正如我们所料,他终于成功了。
3. 用来表示目的,下面两种句子结构都可以。如:
仔细写以便把每句话都写清楚。
正:Write carefully so as to make every sentence clear.
正:Write so carefully as to make every sentence clear.
4. 在正式文体(尤其是文学体裁)中,as后可用倒装语序表示“••也一样”这类意思(现代英语
通常so表示这一用法)。如:
He travelled agreat deal, as did most of his friends. 他去过许多地方旅游,他的多数朋友也是一样。
He plays the piano, as does his mother. 他会弹钢琴,他母亲也会。
注:用作连词,表示原因(参见because),表示时间(参见when)。
5. 用于as if
as though,意为仿佛” 似乎”两者一般可通用(但注意不能说as although)。用法上注意几点:
(1) as if [though] 可引导状语从句和表语从句,从句谓语根据语义的要求,可用陈述语气(若可能为事实)或虚拟语气(若为假设或不太可能是事实)。如:
It looks as if it is going to rain. 天似乎要下雨了。
It seems as if you '似乎佩是对的。
He talks asthough he knew everything. 他夸夸其谈,好像无所不知。
When apencil is partly in a glass of water, it looks as if it werebroken. 当把一支铅笔的一部分放在一杯水里时,它看起来好像折断了似的。
当主句谓语是过去时态时,从句谓语常可用陈述语气。如:
He pausedas though he found a difficulty. 他停了下来,似乎遇到了一个难题。
She felt as if she lost something. 他觉得似乎丢了什么东西。
(2) 当从句主语与主句主语一致,且从句谓语中又包括有动词be时,从句主语及其谓语中
的动词be 通常可以省去。如:
From time to time heturned round as though (he was) searching for someone. 他不时地四下张望,好像在找人。
He opened his mouth as if (he was)to speak. 他张开口,好像要说话似的。
6. 关于as…as用法注意:
(1)中间只能用形容词或副词的原级,不能用比较级或最高级。如果在第二个as之后使用
独立的人称代词,一般说来用主格(较正式)或宾格(非正式)均可。如:
He' s as old as she
her. 他年纪跟她一样大。
注意:
要是第二个as 之后的人称代词跟有谓语动词,则该人称代词只能用主格。如:
He is as old as she is.
但是有时用主格或宾格含义差别很大。如:
You love him as much as I (=as I love him). 你爱他像我爱他一样。
You love him as much as me (=as you love me). 你爱他像爱我一样。
(2) 在肯定句中用as…as,在否定句中用not as …或not so …a均可。如:
He doesn ' t study as [so] hard as his brother.学习不如他弟弟努力。
(3) 要注意比较对象的一致性,即比较的双方必须是可以比较的的同类人或物,否则会出错。如:正:The population of China is much larger than that of Japan. 中国人口比日本人口多得多。误:The population of China is much larger than Japan.
(此句错在将the population of Chi na与Jap an来比较,比较对象不一致)
(4) 如果涉及数量或程度,可用以下两个结构。如:
①as much+ (不可数名词+ ) as
②as ma ny+ (可数名词复数+ ) as
You must speak English as much as possible. 你必须尽可能地多说英语。
You' ve made as many mistakes as I havd尔犯的错误和我犯的一样多。
(5) 请注意下列结构的词序。如:
她和她妈妈一样是位好厨师。
正:She is a cook as good as her mother.
正:She is as good a cook as her mother.
误:She is as a good cook as her mother.
(6) 修饰as …aS吉构的常见词语有nearly, almost, just, exactly, half, quite, twice, three times
