1.用作介词，意为“作为”、“当作”、“充当”。如：
He treats me as a child. 他把我当小孩看待。

2.用作连词，注意以下用法：
(1) 表示“随着”。如：
As time passed, things seemed to get worse. 随着时间的推移，情况似乎变得更糟了。
若其后不接从句，而接名词，则用介词 with 表示“随着”。如：

(2) 表示让步(意为：虽然，尽管)，要用于倒装句(相当于 though, 但语气稍弱)。如：

Try as he would [might]，he couldn’t open the door. 他试过多次了，却仍打不开门。
注：倒装后位于句首的名词通常不用冠词。如：
Boy as he was, he behaved like a girl. 他虽然是个男孩，但举止却像个女孩。
3.用作关系代词，主要用法有：
(1) 用在 such, same, as 等之后，引导限制性定语从句。如：

(2) 单独用作关系代词，引导非限制性定语从句，可放在主句之前(常译为：正如)或之后(常译为：这一点)，且主从句之间一般要用逗号隔开。如：

As was expected, he succeeded at last. 正如我们所料，他终于成功了。
