as...as句型省略问题

美剧modern family台词:

Luke and Manny had as much to do with this project as they did with the Manhattan project.

学生的疑问如下:

1. 该句是否可以省略为“Luke and Manny had as much to do with this project as with the Manhattan project”?

2. 若1中的省略可行,则可否进一步改为“Luke and Manny had as much to do with this project as the Manhattan project”?

3. 老师是否能详解一下“as as”句型的用法:第二个as后面必须有哪些成分?又有哪些成分可以省略?

感谢!

比较分句的特点就是大量使用省略和替代(缩减结构)。只要省略的部分能够从主句内容还原,只要不会导致误解,就可以省略。

本句主句为现在时has, 从句为过去时had, 如果省略从句的主语和谓语动词,在从句表示过去这个时间区别就没有了,因此如果省略从句的主语和谓语动词,就需要加一个表示过去的时间结构。例如:

Luke and Manny has as much to do with this project as with the previous Manhattan project.

with不宜省略,如果省略会让读者误以为the Manhatan project是从句的主语。
