一,as often as用于字面義,表示“與……一樣經常”,可視為as…as結構與often的自然搭配;若用作習語,則表示“每當”。如:
I don’t visit my parents as often as I should. 我去看望的次數(shù)不夠經常。
As often as I tried to phone him the line was engaged. 每次我給他打電話都占線。
另外,習慣搭配as often as not的意思是“往往”“通?!保荒馨醋置鎭砝斫?。如:
As often as not, he forgets his homework. 他常常忘做家庭作業(yè)。
二,其他的還有:
as soon as 字面意思為“與……一樣快”;作為習語,其意為“一……就”。
as long as字面意思為“與……一樣長(久)”;作為習語,其意為“只要”。
as well as字面意思為“與……一樣好”; 作為習語,其意為“不但……而且”“既是……也是”“而且”“還”。
