问题描述
Then everything will be as it was before.感觉这个句子不完整
老师答疑
刘老师：
Then everything will be as it was before.
【答】这个句子很完整，不缺成分。
▲as it is原本是个方式状语，现在已演变成一个英语习语，基本意思是“按照现在的样子；像目前的现状；根据现在情况看，照目前的情况看来”。其过去式是as it was，其过去完成式是as it had been。
▲as it was和as it had been，在时间上指过去，意为“按照当时的样子；像那时的现状；根据当时情况看，照那个时候的情况看来”。
稍加分析我们就看出，它实际是as引导的方式状语从句，as的意思“按照......样子，像......那样”。
Leave it as it is. 照现在的样子把它放在那儿。
Don't shut the door, it's all right as it is. 不要关门，原样开着好。

▲as it was除了作方式状语外，还可以作表语。例如：
This statute will remain as it was before. 此项法规仍旧。
