Child as my son is, he knows to help me. 我儿子虽是个孩子,但却知道帮我。Teacher though I am , I can't know everything. 我虽然是老师,但也不可能什么都懂。【说明】其中的动词通常为连系动词,也就是说位于句首的名词是其后连系动词的表语。另外,要特别注意位于句首的名词前习惯上不用冠词,即使其前有形容词修饰也不用冠词。比较:1. Boy as though he is, he likes to play with girls.=Though Although he is a boy, he likes to play with girls.他虽是男孩,却喜欢与女孩子玩。2. Strong man as though he is, he has been severely put to the test during the past few weeks.= Though Although he is a strong man, General Botha has been severely put tothe test during the past few weeks. 他虽然坚强,但在过去的数周里也受到了严峻的考验。二、形容词+as / though+主语+动词1.Successful as he is, he is not proud. 他虽然成功,但不骄傲。2.Improbable as it seems, it's true. 虽然看起来不太可能,但却是真的。3.Stupid as it sounds, I was so in love with her that I believed her. 尽管听起来很愚蠢,我是如此爱她竟然相信了她的话。4. Patient as he was, he didn't like waiting that long. 他虽说有耐心,也不愿等这么长。5. Beautiful though the bag was, I thought it was too expensive.这包虽然很漂亮,我认为它太贵了。【说明】其中的动词也通常为连系动词,也就是说位于句首的形容词是其后连系动词的表语。三、副词+as / though+主语+动词1.Much as I like school, I couldn't live here. 尽管我喜欢我们学校,但我不能住在这里。2.Hard though they tried, they couldn't make her change her mind. 尽管他们做了很大努力,却没法让她改变主意。3.Hard asthough he is, he fails in the end.4 .Fast as you read, you can't finish the book in two days. 尽管你读得很快,你总不能在两天之内就读完这本书。【说明】有的词典将much as 作为习语看待,认为它是一个用以引导让步状语从句的复合连词。再如:1.Much as I admire him as a writer, I do not like him as a man. 他作为一名作家我很佩服他,但我却不喜欢他这个人。2.Much as I like you, I couldn't live with you. 我尽管很喜欢你, 却不能和你在一起生活。四、动词原形+as / though+主语+动词1. Object as you may, I'll go. 纵使你反对,我也要去。2. Try as he might, he couldn't find a good way to solve the problem.尽管他想方设法,却找到解决这个问题的好方法。3. Dislike him as we may, we must admit his greatness. 尽管我们不喜欢他,但必须承认他的伟大。4. Lose necklace as I did, I knew a lot of experience about how to protect next one. 项链虽然丢了,我却知道了许多关于怎么保护下一条项链的经验。【说明】主语后的动词通常为may, might, would, did 等情态动词或助动词(若表示情态意义,则选用情态动词;若陈述事实,则用did, do 等助动词)。五、分词+as / though+主语+动词1. Raining hard as it is, I'm going out for a party. 虽然正在下着大雨,我还是要出去参加一个聚会。2.Surrounded as was by my companions, I managed to run away from them . 虽然我们被敌人包围着,但我们还是设法前进了。【特别强调】这类倒装的让步状语从句可用as, though 来引导,但不能用although来引导;但是,未倒装的让步状语从句则可用though, although来引导,而不能用as来引导。也就是说,although引导让步状语从句时不能倒装,as引导让步状语从句时必须倒装,而though引导让步状语从句时可以倒装也可以不倒装。对比:如:虽然很晚了,但我们还是继续工作。1.正:Late as though it was, we still went on working.正Though Although it was late, we still went on working.误:Late although it was, we still went on working.误:As it was late, we still went on working.2. 上面提到的倒装结构有时也可用来表示原因,区别的办法主要看句子的内容:让步从句的内容大多数与主句在意义上相反,而原因从句则与主句之间有因果关系。比较:Tired as he was, he sat up late studying at night. 昨晚他虽然很疲倦了,但还是学习到很晚才睡。(表让步)Tired as he was, he went to bed early. 因为很累,所以他睡得很早。(表原因)Young as he was, he was equal to the task. 他虽年轻,却能胜任这项工作。(表让步)Young as he was, he was not equal to the task. 他因为年轻,所以不能胜任这项工作。(表原因)3. 在美国英语中,人们通常用asas引导让步状语从句。如:Cold as it was, we went out.=As cold as it was, we went out. 尽管天气冷,我们还是出去了。Successful as our monitor is, he is not proud.=As successful as our monitor is, he is not proud. 们的班长虽成功了,但他不骄傲。说明:不倒装时,AlthoughThough引导让步状语从句,区别甚微,Although比Though正式,一般情况可以互换。Eg.AlthoughThough he got ill, he still insisted on working all day long. 虽然他病了,但他依然坚持一天工作。在上边句子中,主句中出现了still(仍然),而且在中文的翻译中,是"虽然,但是",但需要注意的是,出现这两个词的句子中,不能有but出现,但可以与yet,still连用。
