当as作―尽管，虽然‖的意思讲引导让步状语从句时，从句往往放在主句的前面，而且用作让步的部分（表语、状语或动词原形）总是提前到句首。若表语是名词，前置时要省略冠词。如：
Child as he is，he knows a lot. 尽管他是孩子，他却懂得很多。 Old as he is, he is still energetic. 尽管他老了，却依然精力充沛。（表语作为让步的内容，因此提前了。） Try as he might, he couldn’t solve the problem.
尽管他很努力了，但还是无法解决这个问题。(谓语提前了）
Much as you suspected him, you couldn’t provide powerful evidence. 虽然你非常怀疑他，但是你却无法提供有力的证据。（状语作为让步的内容，因此提前了。） whether...or（不管……）,疑问词+ ever与no matter+疑问词（不管……，无论……）,however（不管怎样）,whatever（无论什么）,whoever（无论谁）, no matter when(how, what, who, where, which）无论何时（怎样，什么，谁，何地，哪个）等。如： No matter where you go on the earth, you will feel the gravity. 无论你走到地球的什么地方，你都会感觉到地引力。 We’ll start our meeting on time whether he comes or not. 无论他来不来，我们将准时开会
注：whoever，whatever，whomever，whichever还可以引导名词性从句。如：You can take whatever you like.你可以拿任何你所喜欢的东西。
