China will never be a beautiful utopia, but it could be on the way to making itself as benevolent an autocracy as is possible in the Chinese context, given the country’s history and contemporary complexity. It could be making itself a regime that is progressive for the Chinese people and that presents itself to them, at this time in their history, as the best they could realistically have.

as is 这里是什么语法结构啊，谢谢了

forestryboy

on the way to 后面为什么是动名词
那个given修饰前面哪个词啊

Engdict

1. on the way to: to 是介词， 后面可加名词，也可加动名词，比如 on the way to school: 去上学的路上
2. given： 是介词，意思是 when you consider sth 考虑到；鉴于。 它的宾语是the country’s history and contemporary complexity

You'd better write down the whole relevant text (as a minimal working example), rather than omitting some words. Keep your MWE as complete as possible (BUT not so detailed), then other people who means to help you will be able to understand what's the real point involved in your problems.

谢谢，这个句子是不是为了行文逻辑需要写成这样子了，可不可以改为making itself an autocracy as benevolent  as is possible in the Chinese context。

第二个as是一个连词吗？is前有省略成分
6 }) v) ?; A* E, J) c# P1 P如果是that的话，是不是应该这样的： the same color as yours (is)

making itself as a benevolent autocracy as is possible in the Chinese context=
making itself LIKE a benevolent autocracy THAT is possible in the Chinese context

就是一个比较句   意思是尽可能的做到如何

csw016

3 D0 S6 ~3 V6 r; O. f% M你不要把它读成 as is, 你把它读成 as is possible ... 就好理解了。
as 在这里的确应该是代词，尽管很多词典， 包括ODE 都不收 代词 这一项。但是 merriam webster 的 entry 3 of 9, 第2项 可作为很好的解释。上面已有坛友引用。

另， 你可把句子略作改写以更好地理解，即在 as 前加一个逗号, 把它变为一个非定从：
..., which is possible ...
; `( g/ I% R+ d# O3 K# H- R
参阅 swan, practical English usage, as 做主语，宾语等。

谢谢，这个句子困扰我好几天了，对as的不同理解再加上on the way to和making itself的理解和后面那个句子，我对前面的句子竟然有两种不同的理解

又好像不是比较句子了，是比喻句子？
