不久很快的英文

as soon as 的中文意思是指「一…就」的意思，soon 是指「不久、很快」的意思，而当soon跟as 组合成 as soon as 的结构，就变成了「一…就」的意思。

下面列举出as soon as 的英文用法跟中文意思，赶快学起来吧！

as soon as 的中文意思是指「一…就」。

例： He left as soon as he saw her. 他一看见她就离开了。

例： As soon as I saw her, I knew there was something wrong. 我一看到她就知道出事了。

《最强图解英文文法》的作者在书中有解释，为什么 as soon as 是「刚….就….」的意思。首先要准备2 句英文。

• It began to rain soon.「不久就开始下雨了。」 • He went out soon.「不久他就出门了。」

这2句要以 as…as 联系，造出 as…as ∼ 的句型。

It began to rain as soon as he went out soon. 硬将这句话直译，会得到如下结果： 「就在跟他出门同样不久（同时，马上）就开始下雨了。」

其次是省略「重复」的第2 个soon（句末）。

It began to rain as soon as he went out. 「他刚出门就开始下雨了。」

换句话说，as soon as… 是「跟……同样不久」→「与此同时」。

另外，如果将 as soon as 当作一个连接词来用，也可以造出以下句子：

例：As soon as he went out, it began to rain. 他一出门就开始下雨。

as soon as possible 则是另一个很常见的英文用法，意思是「尽快地、越快越好」。

例：Please reply as soon as possible. 请尽快回信。

例：Please make your decision as soon as possible. 请尽快作决定。
