【句子】

According to anthropologists, the earliest ancestors of humans that stood upright resembled chimpanzees facially, with sloping foreheads and protruding brows.
根據(jù)人類學家的說法,直立行走的人的鼻祖面部輪廓與黑猩猩相似,額頭后傾,眉毛突出。

【解析】

ing to

1)主要用來表示“根據(jù)”某學說、某書刊、某文件、某人所說等或表示“按照”某法律、某規(guī)定、某慣例、某情況等。

According to the radio, it will rain tomorrow.
據(jù)之聲廣播,明天有雨。

2)according to 表示“根據(jù)”,通常是指根據(jù)別人或別處,而不能根據(jù)自己,所以其后不能接表示第一人稱的代詞(如me, us),同時也很少接表示第二人稱的代詞(you),但用于第三人稱(如 him, her, Jim, Mary, the doctor 等)則屬正常用法。

誤:According to me, the film is wonderful.
正:In my opinion, the film is wonderful.
依我看,這部電影很不錯。

3)according as與according toaccording to的用法區(qū)別

①according to是介詞,其后原則上只接名詞或代詞,不接句子。若接句子,則用according as。
Everyone contributes according as he is able.
每個人根據(jù)自己的能力作出貢獻。

②但對于那些由what, which, whether, how, when, where等引導的句子,其前要用according to,不用according as
He is an honest businessman, according to what everyone says.
根據(jù)大家所說,他是位誠實的商人。
