2   As much as 的用法

一、表示數量

1. 表示具體的數量，其后通常接有具體數量，其意為“……之多”“多達”“整整”，強調“多”。如：

In fact it 買粉絲st me as much as 100 dollars. 事實上，它整整花了我100美元。

—Of 買粉絲urse, as much as 45 degrees. 當然熱，高達45度。

The speed can vary by as much as 15per cent. 其速度的差別可高達15%。

注：如上例所示，as much as 用于表示具體的數量時，其后接的可能是可數名詞，但由于它們意義上仍然為不可數，故用as much as，不用as many as。如100 dollars，盡管其中的dollars為可數名詞的復數形式，由于100 dollars仍是一個不可數的概念，仍是不可數的。但是下面這句是錯的：I read as much as 100 articles today. 因為這里的100 articles表示的是可數概念，故應改為：I read as many as 100 articles.

2. 表示模糊的數量，其意為“與……一樣多”，有時much后可接被修飾的名詞(不可數)。如：

I ate as much as I 買粉絲uld. 我能吃多少就吃了多少。

3. 譯為“與……一樣多”。如：

4. 譯為“好像”“幾乎”“并不多”“等于”。如：

6. 有時有較靈活的譯法：

四、兩點特點說明

1. 第二個as有時為關系代詞，用以引導定語從句。如：

I gave him as much as he 買粉絲uld eat. 他能吃多少，我就給了他多少。

As much as he earned was given to his girlfriend. 他賺的錢都給了他的女朋友。

2. 當連接兩個成分作主語時，其后謂語動詞習慣上要與前面一個成分保持一致。如：

John, as much as his brothers, was responsible for the loss. 不僅約翰的兄弟要對這損失負責，而且約翰自己也要對這損失負責。

Too .. to 結構中，在too之前出現了all, only, but, not等詞時，to 后的從句就有肯定意義。

--He is but too eager to get home.  他太急于要回家了。

--One is never too old to learn.  活到老學到老。

--I’m all/but too glad to have someone to speak to.

1.be likely to do 

2.It is likely that……

--It is likely that he arrives here in time.  他及到達這里是有可能的。

詞匯比較：

1. probable 與likely 意思相通，但是不能與不定式形式搭配。可以用：It is probable that …

--It is probable that he arrives here in time. 

probable 表示的可能性比possible 表示的可能性要大，與likely基本相同。

2.possible 表示可能發生或可能不發生，也可以用句型：It is possible that …

--It is possible/probable that he will speak to you.

--It is possible for us to finish the work in an hour.
