as well与as well as只有一词之差,但意义和用法却相差甚远.
一、as well 用法:
1、as
well常用作状语,作“又;也”解,相当于too或also,常位于句末,无须用逗号与句子分开.如:
I am going to
London and my sister is going as well(=going,too).
我要到伦敦去,我妹妹也要去.
I not only play the guitar,I sing as well(=I also sing ).
我不但弹吉他,而且还演唱.
2、as well 在口语中也可用于句中,作“也好,也行”或“倒不如”解,用来缓和语气.如:
You may as well go、
你去也好.
The weather was so bad
that we might(just)as well have stayed at home.
天气太坏了,早知道如此,倒不如呆在家里为好.
3、as well 可以直接用于just后,用作应答语(可视为It's just as
well、的省略),作“幸亏,幸而;无妨;没关系”解.如:
—We were too late to see the
film.
我们去得太晚了,没有看上电影.
—Just as well、I hear it isn't very
good.
不必遗憾,我听说电影也不怎么样.
二、as well as 用法
1、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:
Your 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、)
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.
2、as well as
用来表示同级比较,指“一样好”.如:
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.
He plays the guitar as well as you.
他的吉他弹得和你一样好.
