as many as

词典as many as 【问】 The number of people who lost homes reached as many as 250,000. [《高中英语教科书》第一册(上),人教社,p.26] 与该书配套的《教师教学用书》(p.108)对 as many as 的解释是:“‘as many as’的意思是‘和......一样多’,类似的结构还有 as long as(和......一样长),as high as(和......一样高),as wide as(和......一样宽)等。” 在 as many as + 数词结构中, as many as 是“和......一样多”的意思吗? 【答】当 as many(long, high, wide) as 与数词连用时,它是一种表达说话人“言其多(长、高、宽)”的口气的,因此,不能解释为“与......一样多(长、高、宽)”,而应解释为“多(长、高、宽)达......”或“......之多(长、高、宽)”。把句中的 as many(long, high, wide) as 去掉之后,句子仍是完整的,但却失掉了说话人“言其多(长、高、宽)”的口气(参见 as ... as ⁵˒⁶ )。例如: 1. Three people offered to buy it. 有三个人出价买这件东西。(此句没有表达出说话人认为三个人是多,还是少,只是客观地描述) 2. As many as three people offered to buy it. 出价买这件东西的有三人之多。(此句表达出了说话人“言其多”的口气) 3. He can jump 1.8 metres. 他跳高可以跳到 1.8 米。(说话人没有表达出跳到 1.8 米是跳得高,还是跳得低) 4. He can jump as high as 1.8 metres. 他跳高可以跳到1.8米之高。(表达了说话者“言其高”的口气,外行人也可以看出跳到1.8米算是很高的了) 请做下面的英语试题: After supper she would sit down by the fire, sometimes for ____ an hour, thinking of her young and happy days. A. as long as B. as soon as C. as much as D. as many as(上海高考,03春-25)

教材7. In Chengdu, we have as many teahouses as leaves in a cup of tea! 成都的茶馆数量就如同一杯茶中的茶叶那么多! as many as意为“和......一样多”。句中的as many teahouses as leaves in a cup of tea是一种夸张的比喻,意在突出成都的茶馆数量极多。类似的用法还有: In the library, there are as many books as stars in the sky. 图书馆里的书就像天上的星星那么多。
