2.过去分词 + as + 主语 + 系动词.如：
Well-written as the book is,the author is not satisfied and prepared to revise it.
尽管这本书写得很好,作者还是不满意并打算修改它.
3.名词 + as + 主语 + 系动词.如：
Student as he is,he does not study hard.
他虽然是个学生,却不努力学习.
4.副词 + as + 主语 + 谓语部分.如：
Much as I admire his courage,I don’t think he acted wisely.
我虽然崇拜他的勇气,但我认为他这样做是不明智的.
5.动词原形 + as + 主语 + 谓语的另一部分（情态动词或助动词may,might,will,would等）.如：
Try as you will,you won’t be able to persuade him.
不管你怎么努力,你都说服不了他.
