由as引出的一个常考倒装句式:主句+ as+(助动词/系动词)+主语的倒装结构(如as does/did sb, as does/did sth;as+系动词+主语等);含义是:主句所描述的情形也适用于从句的主语。而从句采用简略形式的倒装手法。
倒状结构为: 主句+ as+(助动词/系动词)+主语
助动词/系动词的具体形式(单复和时态)只与从句主语和情形有关。在这里,as 是从属连词,引导方式状语从句,意为“和或正像...一样”,和 “...也是如此,也是”。
The road that will be chosen leads to the unknown, as does any choice in life.
将要选择的道路会把我们引向未知;人生中的选择也会把我们引向未知。
as引起此类倒装不是必须的,也可以不倒装:
The road that will be chosen leads to the unknown, as any choice in life does.
在as引起此类倒装的时候,as可以替换为and so.(此时的so是副词,所以要加上一个and),请看:
