Language Points in reading text & Language Focus
1. Leonardo de Vinci was a master of design, engineering, science and invention, as well as a master of art.
1) master
名词 n. [C]
① 主人; 雇主; 户主 The dog ran to its master. 那狗向它主人跑去。
②能手, 名家, 大师; 师傅
The young writer learned a great deal from the works by masters in literature. 这位青年作家从文学大师的作品中学到了许多东西。
③及物动词 vt. 精通,掌握
Russian is a difficult language to master. 俄语是门难以精通的语言。
4) as well as
一、分清本义与引申义
①用于本义
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 she. 他说英语说得跟她一样好。
She plays every bit as well as the men. 她打得一点不比男人们差。
②用于引申义
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。
She shares (in) my troubles as well as my joys. 她与我同甘共苦。
They have a flat in town as well as in the Country. 他们在城里有一套公寓,在乡村还有一所房子。
注: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。
二、弄清强调重点
A as well as B这一结构强调的重点是A不是B,即A as well as B=not only B but also A, 注意体会以下例句的译文:
She is clever as well as beautiful. 她不但漂亮,而且聪明。
He speaks Spanish as well as English and French. 他不仅会说英语和法语,而且会说西班牙语。
Actors have to learn their cues as well as their own lines. 演员不仅要记住台词,还要记住其他演员的暗示。
三、把握主谓一致
当as well as连接两个成分作主语时, 其后谓语的单复数形式通常要与前面一个主语保持一致。如:
Tom as well as his parents is going to London. 汤姆和他的父母要去伦敦。
The captain, as well as the other players, was tired.
队长和其他队员都累了。
as well as连接动词时, 常用-ing形式
如:
She has got a cleaning job at night, as
well as working during the day.
辨析:
as well 用法:
A. 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:
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。
B. 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:
You may as well go.
你去也好。
You feel ____ you did yesterday, don't
You
A. as good as
B. as well
C. so good
D. as well as
练一练:
D

didn't lend him the money.

D. the same as
