as引导的让步状语从句须采取倒装结构,主要有以下几种形式:
1) 副词置于句首.如:
Much as I like it (=Although I like it very much),I will not buy it.
2) 动词原形置于句首.如Wait as you may(=Although you may wait),he will not see you.
3) 形容词或名词置于句首.注意:如果表语是名词,则要省掉冠词,如:
Proud as the nobles are (=Although the nobles are proud),they are afraid to see me.
Child as he is (=Although he is a child),he can tell right from wrong.
