形容词原级
英文中形容词有三个比较等级，因此，形容词有原级的用法、比较级的用法和最高级的用法。1. 形容词的原级的用法主要是用于两者之间程度是否相同的比较。
2. 肯定形式用as+原级形容词+as+比较成分，表示“和...一样”。
Tom is as tall as I (am).
汤姆和我一样高。
And I am as fat as you (are).
而且我和你一样胖。
The temperature is as high as (it was) yesterday.
今天的温度和昨天一样高。
3. as much/many...+ as... 表示前后数量相同。
I had just as many bones as you did.
我和你吃的骨头一样多。
4. 否定形式用 not so (as)+原级形容词+as+比较成分，表示“不如...”。
Our hosts are not so nice as those of other dogs.
我们的主人不像其他狗的主人那样好。
Jane is not so (as) tall as I (am).
珍不如我高。
We don't look so strong as that guy.
我们看起来没有那家伙壮。
5. as+形容词原级+as+用作比喻的名词，此结构形成了许多惯用语，多用于口语。
There! There! You are as hungry as a bear.
瞧！瞧！你饿得像只熊。
My God! It is as hard as a rock.
天啊！它硬得像块岩石。
