l)在everyday life中everyday为形容词,意为“日常的”。又如:everyday work日常工作everyday English日常英语every day的分开写为名词性短语,可作状语用。如:We should be in touch with English every day.我们应该天天接触英语。
2)as well,also,tooA.本句还可以这样写
I can see how English is used in everyday life.或在原句中将as well改成tooI can see how English is used in everyday life,too.
B.as well作also,too解时,常常放在句末。(和……一样)而常放在句子中间。又如:I"m going to London and my sister"s coming as well.
I"m going to London and my sister"s coming,too.
I"m going to London and my sister is also coming.
我要去伦敦,我妹妹也随我一起去.
C.as well有时和may/might(just)连用时,构成:may/might(just)as well,意为“不妨;还是……的好”。如:You may just as well tell me the truth.你还是对我说实话的好。
I might as well go.我最好还是去。
