六級詞匯講解:
as well as在此處意為“也,同樣”,在語義上強調的是在它前面提到的比較對象。如:
The tournament is open to amateurs as well as professionals.
這次比賽不僅職業運動員可以參加,業余運動員也可以參加。
as well as也可以表示“與...一樣好”。如:
He can speak Spanish as well as English.
他不但英語說得好,西班牙語也在行。
英語六級考點歸納:
與as well as類似的短語還有as well和not only...but also。
as well意為“也”,但它是副詞短語,相當于too,一般放在句末,有時和連詞and或but搭配使用。如:
He is a worker,and a poet as well.
他是工人,但也是位詩人。
not only...but also與as well as含義相同,但二者的語義重點剛好相反。其中,not only...but also強調后者,而as well as則強調前者,后者只是順便提及。如:
1)She not only plays well, but also writes music.
她不僅很會演奏,而且還會作曲。
2)The child is not only healthy but also lively. (= The child is lively as well as healthy.)
這孩子既健康又活潑。
