as well as(as well as的用法)

在英语中有一个结构是“as..... as ”,可以翻译为“和...一样”。“as good as”这个短语从字面意思来看，即是“和...一样好”。但是，在以下短语中，“as good as”却与其本来的意思大相径庭。我们一起来学习一下吧！

Your guess is as good as mine .

Guess 意思为猜测，猜想。这句话的本意为“你的猜想和我一样”。

不过这个习惯用语的意思是 you do not know anymore about a subject than the person that you are talking to .也就是 "我和你一样不知道"、"我和你一样心中无数"。

例句

A: "Where s Mr. Smith?"

B: "Your guess is as good as mine.

He didn t say anything to me."

史密斯先生在哪？

我也不知道，他什么也没和我说。

我们再来拓展两个同义短语来表示“我也不知道”。

01、not have a clueYou don t have a clue when

that meeting starts, do you?

你也不知道那场会议什么时候开始，是吗？

02、it beats me

It beats me—I really have no idea

how to get to the library from here.

这可难倒我了-我真不知道从这如何到达图书馆。

as good as goldAs good as gold means to behave very well，especially a kid.

As good as gold 的真实含义是“规规矩矩，很乖，表现好”，特别用来指代小孩子规矩的言行。

例句

①She s been as good as gold all morning .她一上午表现都很好。

②The children are all as good as gold when visiting the old people s home.

在拜访老人之家的时候，孩子们的表现非常好。

03、as well as的用法

as well as常用来连接两个并列的成分，作“也，还”解。它强调的是前一项，后一项只是顺便提及。因此连接并列主语时，谓语动词与前一项一致；而用not only ...but also...连接时，谓语动词与后一项一致。如：

①Your wife as well as you is friendly to me.

不仅你而且你的妻子也对我很友好。

（＝Not only you but also your wife is friendly to me、）

② Electric energy can be changed into light energy as well as into sound energy.

电能既可以被转变成声能，又可以被转变成光能。

as well as 用来表示同级比较，指“一样好”。如：

① You look as well as you did ten years ago.

你的身体看起来还和十年前一样好。

② He plays the guitar as well as you.

他的吉他弹得和你一样好。最后：
