今天我們來學習and和as well as的用法。
請熟讀例句到會說:
儘管我們經常把and和as well as互換使用,
實際上它們在意義和用法上有很大的區別。
and和as well as之間的關鍵區別在於:
01and
and前後所連接的所有單詞、從句或短語同等重要:
It was a big horse, tall and bony.
那是一匹又高又瘦的大馬。
Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
抱最好的希望, 做最壞的打算。
The boy was startled and his eyes were big.
那男孩嚇了一跳,眼睛圓睜。
She has already apologized and I have accepted her apology.
她已經道歉了,我也接受了她的道歉。
02as well as
而as well as是用來提及與正在討論的主題相關的另一事物時使用的連詞。強調其前面的主題。
He grows flowers as well as vegetables in his garden.
他在花園裡種了花,也種了些蔬菜。
(種花是重點;種菜是補充)

學生不僅要做功課,而且要追求自己的興趣。
(做功課是重點;興趣是補充)
感謝網友「被賣跑路」糾錯:
(追求興趣是重點;做功課是補充)
As well as his salary, he gets benefits in kind.
除了工資,他還得到實物福利。
(實物福利是重點;工資是補充)
as well as還可以是比較級,表示「一樣好」

03主謂一致
請記住
and連接兩個單詞做主語,是複數:
Air and waterare the natural resources all lives need to live.
空氣和水是所有生命所需要的自然資源。
Truth and roseshave thorns about them
真理和玫瑰一樣,身上皆有刺。
(隱喻真理如同玫瑰一樣,不容易被人接受。)
as well as連接兩個單詞做主語,謂語動詞要與as well as前的單詞保持數的一致:
John, as well as Mary,wants to take the course.
The moon as well as the starswas shining down on them.
月亮和星星都照耀著他們。
04together with
與…一起
together with用法和as well as一樣

我父親和他的兄弟們去了歐洲。
