as,like,for作“像.一样”时用法区别,并举例

问题描述:

as,like,for作“像.一样”时用法区别,并举例

  1)如果要表达人与人、事与事等之间是相似的,可用as或like。如:He?s bit of a nob, as his father does.他这人有点势利,就像他父亲那样。还有so do I, so am I, neither/nor do I等也表示相似。
2)当要表达事物之间在某方面一样时,可用as:as:和as much/many:as:如,Learn as much as you can about what to expect in the future.对于预料将发生的事要尽量多做准备。
还有for?
应该是for example吧

很早的时候,like是形容词,表示相象、相同、类似等意;as是连接词.
Samy and Sammy are very like.Samy和Sammy长得很像.
Paul behaved as a child(does).保罗的举止像个小孩.(句子有省略)
后来,like作为介词使用,表示像…一样;as也可以作为介词使用了.
Paul behaved like a child.保罗的举止像个小孩.(句子没有省略)
再比较:
Let me speak to you as a father.让我以父亲的地位对你说说.(=I am your father and I am speaking to you in that character)
Let me speak to you like a father.让我像你父亲那样对你说说.(= I am not your father but I am speaking to you in the way your father might)
再后来,有些语法学家把以往like不允许作连词使用的规则也改了,用来代替引导方式状语从句的as.
I can't sing like I used to do.我不能像过去那样地唱了.(指唱的音色)
He writes just like his brother did when he was young.他写字的手法和他兄弟年轻时写的差不离.(指书法的风格和字型)
即使如此,like和as有时还是有些区别的.试比较:
The *er was hanged like a murderer.这个囚徒像杀人犯那样被处以绞刑(=…as if he were a murderer).
The *er was hanged as a murderer.这个犯人作为杀人犯被处以绞刑.(这个犯人就是杀人犯)
