1.all+抽象名詞/抽象名詞+itself = very + adj.
He was all gentleness to her.他對她非常溫存。
To his superiors， he is humility itself.對于長輩，他極為謙遜。
分析：該結構原來是表示某種性質達到極點的一種說法，有"非常"、"盡管"、"一味"、"盡"的含義，有時甚至可以譯為"……的化身"、"……的具體化".普通復數名詞用于"all"之后，也是表達這種概念。
He is all smiles.他一味地笑。
She is all eyes.她盯著看。
I am all anxiety.我真擔心。
He is all attention.他全神貫注地聽著。
2.Something (much) of / nothing (little) ofMr.Li is something of a philospher.李先生略具哲學家風范。
Mr. Wu is nothing of a musician.吳先生全無音樂家的風味。
Mr. Lu is very much of a poet.陸先生大有詩人氣派。
Mr.Liu is little of a scholar.劉先生幾無學者風度。
分析：此為表示"程度"的形容詞短語，有時可以當作副詞翻譯。
Something of =to some extent(某程度)，在問句和條件句中則用anyting of(略有、多少)。nothing of譯作"全無、毫無".
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.他毫無演說家的才能。
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區別：程度上有差異。
something like = something approximateing in character or amount指數量或性質略同的事物，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;
(1)He is as kind as his sister.他象他妹妹一樣和藹。
(2)He is as kind as honest.他既誠實又和藹。
(3)He ia as kind as his sister is honest.他妹妹誠實，而他和藹。
句式1表示兩個不同的人相同的性質;
句式2表示同一個人不同的性質;
句式3表示兩個人的不同性質。該句式中第一個as為之時副詞，第二個as為連詞。所以，第一個as后面為adj./adv.，而第二個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以復加的。
6.as……， so…… .
As rust eats iron， so care eats the heart.憂能傷人，猶如銹之蝕鐵。
SO相當于in the same proportion; in like manner; in the same way(亦復如此)。為加強語氣，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養一樣，國家要靠工業營養。
