Strong man as ［though］ he is，General Botha has been severely put to the test during the past few weeks.= Though he is a strong man， General Botha has been severely put to the test during the past few weeks. 波賽將軍雖然堅強，但在過去的數週裏也受到了嚴峻的考驗。

He was unable to make much progress，hard as he tried. 儘管他做了努力，卻未能取得很大進步。
【說明】有的詞典將 much as 作爲習語看待，認爲它是一個用以引導讓步狀語從句的複合連詞。再如：
Much as I admire him as a writer，I do not like him as a man. 他作爲一名作家我很佩服他，但我卻不喜歡他這個人。
