as if, as though的用法：
水嶋あい
这两个复合从属连词的用法和意义完全一样，但as if 在当代英语中比 as though 普通得多。
As though 是书面语，比as 正式。
1）as if 引出的方式状语从句所表示的情况是事实或具有很大可能性时，通常用直陈语气。名子的谓语我为look, em, taste, smell, sound等。如：
It looks as if they have succeeded in the experiment. 看来好像他们试验成功了。
2) as if 引出的方式状语从句所表示的情况不是事实，而是主观想象或夸大性的比喻时，通常用虚拟语气。从句中谓语动词一般用过去时，be 动词常用 were,但在现代英语中也常见到单数 was的情况。如：
The young man with long hair looks as if he were a girl. 这位满头长发的男青年看上去像个女的。
The injured man acted as if nothing had happened to him.这位受伤的男子表现得好像没发
生什么事一样。

3）as if 引出的方式状语从句，当主句谓语是过去时态时，从句谓语形式常常没有什么特殊之处。如：
The lady felt as if she lost something. 这位女士好像学得丢了什么东西。
He was singing as though / if he hadn't had / didn't have a care in the world.他唱着歌，好像人世间他没有忧虑。
4）as if 引导的同一从句中所用的时态不同，意思往往不同。请比较：
glamorous sky* The clown looks as if he were ill.那个小丑好像害病似的。（虚拟语气）
●The clown looked as if he had been ill.那个小丑过去好像生过病。（过去生过病或虚拟语气）
Whatever 和 no matter what的区别：
1whatever可用作连接词或连接副词，引导让步状语从句，表示“无论，不管”的意思。此时，可用no matter what结构来替换其意完全相同。位置前后置都可以。
2whatever还可以引导名词性从句，同时起先行词和关系代词的作用。相当于anything that或all that，有任何一切这类意思。此时不能用no matter what替换。
3what和ever分开写，则作“到底，究竟”解，这时它和on earth, in the world相同，起强调作用。e.g. What ever do you mean? = What do you mean on earth?
4what也可以引导名词性从句意为“the thing which”与“whatever”含义相同。
firefly come back to me5用法完全与whatever相同的词还有whichever,whoever.
AS 和我 with 的区别。吸血鬼日记第三季11
as是连接词，后面要加句子。而with是介词，后面加名词短语。又如：
WIth the quick passage of time,we found it time to say goodbye to each other.
隔板英文==As time pasd quickly,we found it time to say goodbye to each other.
=== With time passing quickly,we found it time to say goodbye to each other.
独立主格中：there being。There having been
being在这里只是一个现在的状态
having been 已经保持现在这个状态很久了
而人只有一年是110岁，如果一个人三年都是110岁，那就能用having been
There is a story here in the newspaper about a 110-year -old man.

A being B having been
答案是A 两个同样表状态吧 为什么B 错？ thanks
__no rain for a long time,the ground was very dry.stonehenge
A There having been
B There has been
C There had been
D There was
课代表报的答案是A,为什么不是C呢
A现在完成进行时,是指从过去到现在很久都没有下雨,这个动作可能持续,也可能不持续,也就是说以后也许还不会下雨,也许会下雨.C是说过去的事情,如果过去很久没下雨,现在下雨了呢?而且过去不下雨现在the ground was very dry一定吗?
