侧重点不同、含义不同、用法不同。as well解析:as well一般不用否定句,通常放在句末,强调时可放在句中。as well as。解析:as wel。含义不通:as well释义:也,还。as well as释义:既…又…,除…之外(也),此外。
as well as用于本义,可视为as…as结构与well的自然搭配,其意为“与……一样好”,在否定句中可用not so well as代替not as well as。如:
He speaks English as well as her.他说英语说得跟她一样好。
用于引申义,表示“不但……而且”“既是……也是”“而且”“还”。如:
He grows flowers as well as vegetables.他既种菜也种花。
有时还可译为“除……之外,还”,与besides, in addition to的用法相似。如:
As well as learning to swim he has been taking Spanish lessons this summer.今年夏天,他除了学习游泳外,他还在上西班牙语课。
当as well as连接两个成分作主语时,其后的谓语通常要与前面一个主语保持一致。如:
Tom as well as his parents is going toLondon.汤姆和他的父母要去伦敦。
as well as通常被视为介词,所以后接动词时,一般用动名词形式。如:
He sings as well as playing the piano.他不但会弹钢琴,而且会唱歌。
as well as后接动词用动名词的情况主要见于主句谓语为简单时态(即一般现在时和一般过去时)的时候。
如果主句谓语为复合时态(即其中含有情态动词或助动词),则as well as后的动词通常要与情态动词或助动词后的动词形式保持一致。如:
Students should pursue their own interests, as well as do their school work.学生不仅应该做要好家庭作业,而且还要有自己的兴趣。
如果as well as是连接两个不定式,则其后用不带to的不定式。如:
A museum should aim to entertain as well as educate.博物馆不仅要有教育性还且还要有娱乐性。
当as well as用于句首时,其后习惯上要接动名词。如:
As well as eating a seven-course meal, they drank three bottles of wine.除吃了一顿有七道菜的饭之外,他们还喝了三瓶酒。
as well as有时也被视为准并列连词,后接的动词可以与主句谓语动词形式一致(但这种情形远不如用后接动名词普遍)。如:
He publishes as well as prints his own books.他不但印刷而且还出版自己的书。
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:
(1)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。
(2)I not only play the guitar,I sing as well. 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:
(1)You may as well go. 你去也好。
(2)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。
