【題目】

A as many as B as well as C as much as D as soon as. ?

【答案】C

【解析】birth rate 是不可數(shù)名詞，所以選擇C項答案，意思是：印度的人口出生率已經(jīng)降低，但遠(yuǎn)沒有中國的人口出生率低。?

many as, as much as的區(qū)別：

She has given birth to as many as 6 children.
她竟生了六個孩子！

(2)as much as也是多達(dá)……，像……一樣多，但它修飾不可數(shù)名詞

Put as much sugar as you like?
喜歡放多少糖就放吧。

well as, as well的區(qū)別：

(1)as well as常用來連接兩個并列的成分， 作也， 還解釋。常放在句中，它強(qiáng)調(diào)的是前一項， 后一項順便提及

我喜歡吃糖果和巧克力。 ?

(2)as well常用作狀語， 作又，也解釋, 相當(dāng)于too或also, 常位于句末， 無須用逗號與句子分開。如：?
