as well as用法
(1)as well as 可连接并列的单词或短语。例如:
It is unpleasant in summer as well as in winter.
夏天不好过,冬天也不好过。
The child is lively as well as healthy.
这孩子既健康又活泼。
(2) as well as 连接两个谓语动词时,它们的时态应保持一致。例如:
He publishes as well as prints his own books.
他的书是他自己印刷出版的。
We are repairing the roof as well as painting the walls.
我们在粉刷墙壁同时也在修理屋顶。
as well as 与动词连用时,其后可用V-ing形式,尤其as well as 位于句首时,此时相当于in addition to。例如:
As well as breaking his leg, he hurt his arm.
他不但摔断了腿,而且还伤了胳膊。
She sings as well as playing the piano.
她不但会弹钢琴,而且会唱歌。
(3) 如果as well as 前面是动词不定式,那么其后的动词也是不定式,但to要省略。例如:
You cannot expect her to do the housework as well as look after the children.
你不可能叫她既照顾孩子又做家务。
(4)由as well as 连接的复合主语并不影响谓语动词的数。例如:
Helen as well as I is eager to see the performance.
海伦和我一样急于要看演出。
I as well as they am ready to help you. 不仅他们愿意帮助你,我也愿意帮助你。
