above all 首先;尤其是;最重要的是

【总结】此短语中的as是连词，引导一个省略了谓语的状语从句。
【词语辨析】act as和act like区别
act as：意思是充当、担任，相当于serve as，可与人或物词如：doctor、director、interpreter、guide、coach、teacher、go-between、furniture、tools等字搭配使用。as是连词，引导一个省略了谓语的状语从句。e.g.This coin may act as a screwdriver. 这枚硬币可以充当螺丝起子用。
act like：意思是行为像、举动像，相当于英语的to act in the manner of，它常与人或动物名词连用。like是介词，其后接宾语。e.g.That child acts like a grown-up. 那个孩子的举动像成年人一样。
according as 根据，随……而定
【例句】Everyone contributes according as he is able. 每个人根据自己的能力作出贡献
【总结】according as 后接从句

据……所载;据……所说
【例句】According to the Bible, Adam was the first man.据《圣经》记载，亚当是人类始祖。
【总结】according to 后一般不接view(看法)和opinion(意见)这类词，也不接表示第一人称的代词(me, us)。to 是介词，后接名词代词等。如：依我看，这部电影很不错。正：In my opinion, the film is wonderful. 误：According to my opinion, the film is wonderful. 误：According to me, the film is wonderful.
【词语辨析】according as与according to的用法区别
(1)according as 根据，随……而定(后接从句)。如：Everyone contributes according as he is able. 每个人根据自己的能力作出贡献
(2)according to 根据，按照(主要引出状语)。如：Everything went off according to plan. 一切都按照计划实现了。合乎，符合(主要引出表语)。如：It is not according to his nature to give praise. 他本性不喜欢颂扬。
add to 增添，增加，增进
【例句】The bad weather added to our difficulties.恶劣的天气增加了我们的困难。
【总结】其宾语多为困难、欢乐等抽象名词。
add...to…把……加到……上
【例句】Add the other items on at the bottom of the page.把另外几项加到这一页的末尾处。
【总结】add A to B是说把A种类加到B种类里面。
这说明B中有至少A和B2种成分了。
add up加起来，总计，说的通
【例句】His story just doesnt add up, he must be lying.他说的前後不一致，一定撒谎了。

a (great/large/small) number of 许多
【例句】A large number of students are ill these days because of the swine flu.这些天我们班的许多学生都因为猪流感而病了
【总结】a (great/large/small) number of接可数名词复数;谓语动词用复数。

【总结】A (together) with B 谓语动词与A一致
A as well as B… A跟B一样
【例句】It is unpleasant in summer as well as in winter.夏天不好过，冬天也不好过
【总结】A as well as B谓语动词与A一致。as well as可连接并列的单词或短语。as well as与动词连用时，其后可用V-ing形式，尤其as well as 位于句首时，此时相当于in addition to。例如：As well as breaking his leg, he hurt his arm. 他不但摔断了腿，而且还伤了胳膊。
as well as用于肯定结构和否定结构中，其意义不同。as well as和not搭配使用，as well as位于not前时，两者均否定;位于not后时，否定前者，肯定后者。
例如：George hasnt gone abroad as well as his brother. 乔治并没有和他兄弟一样出国去。(他兄弟一人出国)
George, as well as his brother, hasnt gone abroad. 乔治和他兄弟都没有出国。
a bit of 一点
【例句】It was a bit of a bore, wasnt it? 这有点叫人厌烦，不是吗?

a bit 一点
【例句】Your article is a bit short.
【总结】a bit放在形容词、副词前，作状语;也可作宾语、表语。

a bit of是介词短语，后接不可数名词;a bit是副词短语，修饰形容词、副词、动词，作状语;也可作宾语、表语。
a bunch of 一束、一捆
【例句】He gave a bunch of flowers to his girlfriend.他送给女友一束花。
【总结】a bunch of后接可数名词复数形式。
a copy of 一份(报纸等)
【例句】A copy of China Today is on the desk.
【总结】a copy of后接可数名词单数。
