(He says that) three times as many young trees are planted as those that can be cut.
请问:three times as…as…每个词之间是什么语法关系?
He says之后是that引导的宾语从句,从句是一个“倍数词+as...as”的倍数表达句式,three times as修饰形容词many(即第一个as是副词);第二个as是连词引导一个省略形式的比较从句,从句中的that can be cut为定语从句修饰those,补全后便是:
He says that three times as many young trees are planted as those that can be cut (were planted). 他说,栽种的小树是(以前栽种的)现在可以砍伐的那些树木的三倍。
▲ 再给你提供两个词典例句(as从句中的省略部分已加上):
Sixteen times as many men are colour-blind as women (are colour-blind). 男性色盲为女性色盲的16倍。《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》
We produced ten times as many tractors as the United States (did). 我们生产的拖拉机的数量是美国(生产)的10倍。《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》
