jerry01--as much as 的用法

albertjerry

以下是两个正确选项:

1--An inventory eaual to 90 days sales is as much as even the strongest businesses carry ,and then only as a way to anticipate higher prices or ensure against shortages

这里的 as much as ,much 指代什么呢 ,不应该用 many吗,好像前面没有不可数名词

2--in 1980 the United States exported twice as much of  its national output of goods as it did in 1970

这里的  as much ,much 又是指的什么 ,是指 output 吗

chenmoon

1、as much as 指的是inventory
2、指output

albertjerry

an inventory 是可数名词啊,为何用 much 呢

chenmoon

inventory在这里可能不表示可数名词了，而是“存货”的意思。

albertjerry

但是前面可是明显的  an  啊,不可数名词怎么可以用 an 呢

chenmoon

我感觉这里 an inventory equal to 90 days sales 是指一种相当于90天销售额的存货的数量
inventory作“存货清单”时是可数的，但作 the quantity of goods or materials on hand 时就不可数了，不知道这样理解对不对。
但是前面为什么要加 an 呢？我也在puzzle中，希望能有大虾指点，还有其他的例子嘛？

1我想问的是在OG 105 ，里，AS MUCH AS 后面的AS 是连词作用吗？ 后面 的even the strongest business carry ( a inventory 省略部分） ， 是这个样子吗？

2 这题拿E so ...that 做混淆选择- 如果E 改成，SO MUCH THAT EVEN ，逻辑意义上对不对呢？我觉得好象可以！

3 SO 。。。AS ，按照OG 的解释是AS 。。。AS  的否定形式？

105. An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as even the strongest businesses carry, and then only as a way to anticipate higher prices or ensure against shortages.

(A) as much as even

(B) so much as even

(C) even so much as

(D) even as much that（A）

(E) even so much that

感觉这T 糊涂糊涂的！
