有一读者问： 有这样一个句子：
(1)The impression you make often results as much from the way you move and speak as it does from what you actually contribute.
此句的结构如何分析？
这是一个复合句，其基本结构是“主语(the impression)+谓语(result from)+宾语(the way)”。此句中有两个从句： 一是you make，用作定语，修饰the impression;另一个是as it does from what you actually contribute，用作比较状语。后者又含有一个名词性从句what you actually contribute，用作does from的宾语。often是一副词，用作时间状语。as much也用作状语，表程度。全句的大意是： 你给人的印象往往不仅由你的实际作为所造成，同样也是由你的言谈举止所造成的。
请注意，as much...as在英语中可谓屡见不鲜，再如：
(2)Keats's letters are as much an indication of the man as is his poetry.
(3)Richardson's novels suffer as much from his purpose as from his own limitations.
(4)The atmosphere is as much a part of the earth as are its soils and the water of its lakes, rivers and oceans.
(5)Here he assembled the whole party, and communicated as much of his intentions as he deemed expedient.
