1. may (just) as well do sth.

may as well do sth. 表示“不妨；倒不如”，用來提出建議。如：

We may as well have a try and see if it can be done.

我們不妨試一試，看看能否辦成。

There is nothing to do, so I may as well go to bed.

沒什么事可做，我還是上床睡覺好了。

[注意]

might as well也可表示“不妨”，但語氣更委婉一些。其也是may as well的過去時(shí)形式。如：

Since she had come up to London, she might as well speak her mind.

既然她已來到了倫敦，她還不如說出真心話。

 

2. As far as I know ．．．

as far as 表示“就……而言；從……來看”。as far as I know就我知道的而言；as far as I can see就我能看到的而言；as far as they are

concerned 就他們而論；as far as the eye can reach 就視力所及。如：

As far as I know, he isn't coming to the party.

就我所知，他不會(huì)來參加這次聚會(huì)。高中英語重點(diǎn)句型歸納

As far as I am concerned, I cannot object to your marriage.

就我個(gè)人而言，我不反對你們的婚事。

知識拓展

as far as還可表示“到某一指定地點(diǎn)；一直到（某地）”。如：

They walked as far as the foot of a mountain.

他們一直走到山腳下。

I'll see you off as far as the airport.

我將一直送你到飛機(jī)場。

（注意：斜體部分為最佳選項(xiàng)。）

 

3. That sort of thing.

That sort of thing. 獨(dú)立使用時(shí)，為一省略結(jié)構(gòu)。如：

Home is happiness and sweetness. That sort of thing（=Home is that sort of thing）.

家庭意味著幸福、溫馨，就是這個(gè)樣子。

這一結(jié)構(gòu)通常應(yīng)該是and that sort of thing，表示“等等諸如此類的事”。如：

The store sells socks, gloves, caps and that sort of thing.

這家商店經(jīng)營襪子、手套、帽子等同類商品。
