比较结构
3-1:as...as修饰单数可数名词
由于as是副词(一样地),不能修饰不定冠词a,故须将形容词handsome与a互换位置,使handsome紧邻as之后,以供其修饰。
即:he is as handsome a boy.
再将第二个as置于a boy之后,然后接比较对象,即告完成
即:he is as handsome a boy as john.
(他和约翰一样是英俊的男孩。)
例:i have as good a car as that one.
(我有一辆车和那辆一样好。)
注意
类似此种只能与单数名词并用的结构尚有:
so...that 如此……以至于
too... to 太……而不
how... 多么地……
1.so...that
例:he is so good a boy that i like him very much.
= he is such a good boy that i like him very much.
(他是如此好的男孩,我非常喜欢他。)
2.too...to
例:he is too old a man to do it.
(他人太老了,没法做此事。)
3.how
例:how great a man he is!
= what a great man he is!
(他人真好!)
注意
what与such之后可修饰单复数或不可数名词。
例:what a great man he is!
(他人真好!)
what beautiful music it is!
(多好听的音乐!)
what good boys they are!
(他们真是好孩子!)
he is such a good boy that i like him.
(他是这么好的孩子,我喜欢他。)
they are such good boys that i like them.
(他们是这么好的孩子,我喜欢他们。)
it is such good music that ienjoy it.
(这音乐这么好,我很欣赏。)
