as...as用法
一．概述
“ as … as
…结构”在英语中用法较多，学生在平时的学习中会频繁地接触到此种结构。有部分学生认为“
as … as… 结构”中只能出现形容词或副词并且认为此结构只能用于原级比较，这种认识是单一的。实际上 “
as … as…
结构”经过不同变化可以构成不同的短语和句式，这些短语和句式被灵活地运用于课文和练习中。如果学生对此结构的用法了解不多，就会在平时的学习中遇到障碍。
“as + 形容词或副词原级 + as…”
意为“和……一样”，表示同级的比较，但要注意第一个 as
为副词，第二个 as
为连词。
二．基本结构用法：
（一）“as + 形容词或副词原级 + as…”

另外还有变体结构：

．

这些短语生动活泼，浅显易懂，记住这些短语可以提高学生的英语写作和口语能力。
（二）“ as … as …结构”用于表示同一个人或物不同性质的比较，意为“既……又……”
。例如：

（三）“ as … as
…结构”用于表示两个人或物不同性质的比较，表示程度相同或相当，意为“……而……”。在否定句中结构是“ so/as…as… ”。例如：

另外，需要注意以上的变体机构：

) + as ' 。例如：

expected.
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)：
She is as good a cook as her mother.
她和她妈妈一样是位好厨师。
也可说：She is a cook as good as her
mother.
但不说：She is as a good cook as her mother. 或They
are as good cooks as us.
2）当much 表示程度的时候
as much + 不可数名词 / a (an) + 单数可数名词+ as

eg: 1）It is generally believed that teaching is as
much an art as it is a
science.人们普遍相信教学如同一门科学一样，它同样是一门艺术。
2）Getting rid of a bad habit is as
much a struggle as forming a good one.

课本例句：

the Olympics as to win Olympic
medals.国与国之间争取奥运会举办权的竞争，就跟争夺奥运奖牌一样激烈。B2U2
as much+不可数名词+as…意思是“和…是一样的”和上面基本形式as many/much
+可数/不可数+as 不同，那是表示多少，这里是表示程度上一样。

mine.

do.
as
much+a/an+单数名词+as…意思是“和…是一样的”
