98. As far as I know, no such drugs are ever known to work.
點(diǎn)睛
口語中經(jīng)常以as far as I know作為一句話的開頭,意為“據(jù)我所知”,其后的內(nèi)容便是說話的重點(diǎn),這也正是聽力的常見設(shè)題點(diǎn)。no such...ever...意為“此類……從未……”,表示強(qiáng)調(diào)。句中的work意為“有效果,起作用”。
考點(diǎn)歸納
聽力中與as far as I know類似的表達(dá)還有:
as/so far as I'm concerned意為“就我而言”。如:
So far as I'm concerned, I'm not going to run the program. 就我而言,我不會去運(yùn)作這個項(xiàng)目。
as far as sb./sth. is concerned意為“就某人或某事物而言”。如:
As far as performance is concerned, we've done quite well. 就表現(xiàn)而言,我們做得還不錯。
as far as it goes意為“就其本身而言”。如:
The statement is correct as far as it goes. 該表述就其本身而言是正確的。
