1.all＋抽象名詞/抽象名詞＋itself ＝ very + adj.
He was all gentleness to her.他對(duì)她非常溫存。
To his superiors， he is humility itself.對(duì)于長(zhǎng)輩，他極為謙遜。
分析：該結(jié)構(gòu)原來(lái)是表示某種性質(zhì)達(dá)到極點(diǎn)的一種說(shuō)法，有"非常"、"盡管"、"一味"、"盡"的含義，有時(shí)甚至可以譯為"……的化身"、"……的具體化".普通復(fù)數(shù)名詞用于"all"之后，也是表達(dá)這種概念。
He is all smiles.他一味地笑。
She is all eyes.她盯著看。
I am all anxiety.我真擔(dān)心。
He is all attention.他全神貫注地聽(tīng)著。
2.Something （much） of / nothing （little） of
Mr.Li is something of a philospher.李先生略具哲學(xué)家風(fēng)范。
Mr. Wu is nothing of a musician.吳先生全無(wú)音樂(lè)家的風(fēng)味。
Mr. Lu is very much of a poet.陸先生大有詩(shī)人氣派。
Mr.Liu is little of a scholar.劉先生幾無(wú)學(xué)者風(fēng)度。
分析：此為表示"程度"的形容詞短語(yǔ)，有時(shí)可以當(dāng)作副詞翻譯。
Something of ＝to some extent（某程度），在問(wèn)句和條件句中則用anyting of（略有、多少）。nothing of譯作"全無(wú)、毫無(wú)".
相類似的情況：
to be something of = to have something of + 名詞＋in ＋代名詞
He is nothing in ability of an orator = He has nothing of an orator in his ability.他毫無(wú)演說(shuō)家的才能。
這類名詞的用法，可以處理為副詞。
He has seen something of life.他略具閱歷。他稍閱世。
Something of 與something like區(qū)別：程度上有差異。
something like ＝ something approximateing in character or amount指數(shù)量或性質(zhì)略同的事物，又作somewhat（似乎、略微）解釋。
This is something like a pudding.此物略似布丁。
It shaped something like a cigar.其形狀略似雪茄。
3.as……as 的三種用法；

（2）He is as kind as honest.他既誠(chéng)實(shí)又和藹。
（3）He ia as kind as his sister is honest.他妹妹誠(chéng)實(shí)，而他和藹。
句式1表示兩個(gè)不同的人相同的性質(zhì)；
句式2表示同一個(gè)人不同的性質(zhì)；
句式3表示兩個(gè)人的不同性質(zhì)。該句式中第一個(gè)as為之時(shí)副詞，第二個(gè)as為連詞。所以，第一個(gè)as后面為adj./adv.，而第二個(gè)as后面為從句。
4.as……as any / as ……as ever
He is as great a statesman as any = He is as great a statesman as ever lived.他是一位稀有的政治家。
5.as……as……can be
It is as plain as plain can be （may be）。那是再明白不過(guò)了。
A lot of these boys were green as green can be.這些男孩許多都是精力充沛無(wú)以復(fù)加的。
6.as……， so……
As rust eats iron， so care eats the heart.憂能傷人，猶如銹之蝕鐵。
SO相當(dāng)于in the same proportion； in like manner； in the same way（亦復(fù)如此）。為加強(qiáng)語(yǔ)氣，也可以在as前面加上just一詞。
As fire tries gold， so does adversity try courage.正如火能試金，逆境可以試人的勇氣。
As the human body is nourished by the food， so is a nation nourished by its industries.正像身體要靠食物營(yíng)養(yǎng)一樣，國(guó)家要靠工業(yè)營(yíng)養(yǎng)。
He was all gentleness to her.他對(duì)她非常溫存。
