第 42 课 · 第 3 阶段: 计划、请求与比较
“as … as” 比较
初级Comparing with “as … as”
构成与用法
as + 形容词 + as — 说两者相同
1.形式
用 as + 形容词/副词 + as 表示两者相等。加上 not 就表示不如。中间的形容词保持原级(不加 -er,不加 more)。
| 句型 | 例句 | |
|---|---|---|
| 相等 | as + 形容词/副词 + as | My brother is as tall as my dad now. |
| 不如 | not as + 形容词/副词 + as | Da Lat isn't as hot as Hanoi. |
| 疑问式 | Is … as + 形容词 + as …? | Is Da Nang as expensive as Hanoi? |
| 和名词连用 | as much / as many + 名词 + as | I don't have as much free time as you. |
要有两个 as:as tall as my dad。第二个词不是 than,也不是 like。
2.什么时候用
1. 两者相等——加上 just 强调“完全一样”
Your English is as good as mine.
你的英语和我的一样好。
Hue is just as beautiful as Hoi An.
顺化和会安一样美。
2. 不如:not as … as——比 less … than 更委婉、更自然的说法。在否定句中有时还会看到 not so … as,意思相同。
This coffee isn't as strong as the one at home.
这咖啡没有家里的那么浓。
The test wasn't as difficult as I expected.
考试没有我预想的那么难。
3. 和副词连用:比较人们做事的方式
Thao sings as beautifully as her mother.
阿草唱歌和她妈妈一样好听。
I can't run as fast as you.
我跑得没你那么快。
4. as much / as many——比较数量:much + 不可数名词,many + 复数名词
I don't earn as much as my brother.
我挣的没有我哥哥那么多。
There aren't as many rice fields as before.
稻田没有以前那么多了。
5. as … as possible / as … as I can——尽最大可能
Please send me the report as soon as possible.
请尽快把报告发给我。
I ran as fast as I could.
我拼尽全力地跑。
3.有多接近?just、nearly、twice…
| as 前面的词 | 意思 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| just | 完全一样 | The cheap phone is just as good as the expensive one. |
| nearly / almost | 非常接近,但稍差一点 | Mai is nearly as tall as Lan. |
| not quite | 稍差一点 | The second film isn't quite as good as the first. |
| not nearly | 差得多 | The flight wasn't nearly as bumpy as I feared. |
| twice / three times / half | 两倍、三倍、一半 | Our new flat is twice as big as the old one. |
三倍及以上时,也可以说 three times bigger than / three times more expensive than——这非常常见。但两倍要用 twice as … as(大多数母语者觉得 twice bigger 听起来不对)。
The bus ticket costs half as much as the train ticket.
公交车票的价钱是火车票的一半。
The new bridge is three times as wide as the old one.
新桥的宽度是旧桥的三倍。
4.The same as;as me 还是 as I am?
要说两者完全相同,用 the same (+ 名词) as——不用 like。
Your phone is the same as mine.
你的手机和我的一样。
Hoa was born in the same year as me.
阿花和我同一年出生。
第二个 as 后面的用法和 than 后面一样:用 me、him、her(口语),或 主语 + 助动词(I am、she does)。助动词的时态必须正确。
He isn't as patient as me. = He isn't as patient as I am.
他没有我那么有耐心。(两种说法意思相同)
Today I'm not as busy as I was yesterday.
今天我没有昨天那么忙。(不说:as I'm yesterday)
完全相同的东西用 the same as(My bag is the same as yours),相似的东西用 like(She looks like her mum)。不要把两者混成 “the same like”。
5.常见错误
My room is as big than yours.My room is as big as yours.
as … as,不用 than。
This bag is as heavier as that one.This bag is as heavy as that one.
两个 as 中间用形容词原级。
My brother is as tall like my father.My brother is as tall as my father.
第二个词也是 as。
This flat is as twice big as ours.This flat is twice as big as ours.
twice 放在第一个 as 前面。
Nam doesn't speak English as fluent as his sister.Nam doesn't speak English as fluently as his sister.
修饰动词 → 用副词。
Your bag is the same like mine.Your bag is the same as mine.
the same 和 as 连用。
例句
- My brother is as tall as my father now.
- Your English is as good as mine.
- Is Long Thanh Airport as busy as Tan Son Nhat yet?
- This old sofa is as comfortable as a new one.
