as can be中as的用法
原句It's loud as can be
as…as can [could] be结构通常可译为“极其”“非常”“要多……就多……”.如:
Both houses were as clean as could be.
两座房子都极其干净.
A:What was the weather like on your holiday?
你度假时天气怎么样?
B:It was as good as could be expected.
好得很.
关于as...as 结构的几个句式
在讲到形容词比较级as...as 时,绝大多数讲的都是 as +形容词+ as 结构.例如:
He is as handsome as his brother (is).他和他哥哥一样英俊.
Judy goes to the movies as often as Sara does.朱迪像莎拉一样时常去看电影.
Old John goes to sleep as easily as a baby does.老约翰像婴儿一样容易入睡.
He cannot run so/as fast as you.他不能有你跑得那么快.
但是,像上面那样的例子多了,就产生一个问题:不少学生都以为as ...as 中间只有形容词.实际上,在 as...as 结构中,还可以有其它的几个句式.
1、 as 形容词+名词 as 句式
这种结构在文章中也很常见,但很多学生不习惯.这里给几个例子,请大家仔细研究一下,提一点请大家注意,就是:形容词后面(包括many/much) 的名词有单数、有复数、有不可数.例如:
This is as good an example as the other is.这和另外一个一样是个好例子.
He is as nice a boy as Peter (is).他和彼得一样都是好男孩.
The girls are as busy with their work as bees.这些女孩子就跟蜜蜂一样忙着工作.
She has as many friends as Mary (does).她和玛丽一样有许多朋友.
He has as much money as John (does).他和约翰一样有很多钱.
I can carry as much paper as you can.你能搬多少纸,我也能搬多少.
2、as many as 与 as much as
这两个比较的意思是“像……一样多”,既可以把它们作为比较级看,也可以把它们看作是一个固定的词组.同样,在 ...many/much...后面可以插入名词,形成 as...many/much +名词...as 的句式.例如:
(1) 作为固定词组来使用的,相当于“……那么多”.
She has as many as seven sisters.她的姊妹有七人之多.
As many as 100 people were killed in the air crash.这次空难中多达一百人丧生.
I gave the beggar as much as 1,00 yen.我给了这乞丐整整一百元.
Building costs ran up to as much as $ 20 million.建筑费用涨到高达两千万.
类似的“长达……”、“宽达……”、“早在…”等,也可以用这种结构表示.例如:
I have been learning English (for) as long as 15 years.我学英文已有十五年之久.
He came home as late as two in the morning.他迟至清晨两点才回家.
I saw your brother as late as last week.上个礼拜我还看到你哥哥.
The river is as wide as 100 meters.这条河宽达一百公尺.
I mailed the letter as early as Friday.我早在星期五就把信寄了.
We walked as far as the railroad station.我们走到火车站那样远的地方.
(2) 作为比较级来使用的,后面可以插入名词,意思是“……一样”.
To eat too much is as much a bad thing as to eat nothing.吃太多和什么都不吃同样是坏事.
He is as much a member of the orchestra as Tom.他和汤姆同样是管弦乐队的成员.
Comets are just as much members of the sun’s family as (are) the other planets.彗星和其他的行星同样是太阳家族的成员.
