Olives are about the same size as grapes.
老师,请问about是副词,是修饰什么词的?
副词about 修饰 the same,意思是:虽然不完全相同,也几乎差不多了。
Olives are about the same size as grapes. =
Olives are of about the same size as grapes. =
Olives are of about the same size as grapes are.

about 作副词表示“大约”的意思时,还可以用于表示数量的词语前面。例如:I live about 10 miles from here. 我的住址离这儿大约十英里。(摘自《朗文多功能英汉双解词典》第五版)
