专家老师好！

When I was a teenager, I felt that I was just young and uncertain - that I was a new boy in a huge school, and I would have been very pleased to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem. For one thing, being a problem gives you a certain identity, and that is one of the things the young are busily engaged in seeking.

对于to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem. 我分析理解上有困难。

我知道regard sth as sth 这样一种结构，书上解释说so interesting as a problem - so...as...为固定搭配，表示：“像...那样...的“之意。

可是，so...as...不是比较关系 = as...as...吗？什么和什么一样...的意思呀？怎么会是：“像...那样...的“之意呢？

1）这里为什么用了so...as..., 没有用as...as...呢？so不是只能用在疑问句和否定句中吗？这里是肯定句呀？

2）麻烦老师逐步分析破解一下to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem.句法结构，中文意思究竟怎么理解？主要是这里出现了2个as很难理解？！

谢谢专家老师们。
