一个英语句子的分析---高手进
I haven't seen them for ten years.They remain as they were.
我十年没见他们了,他们还是从前那样.
我想知道后半句：They remain as they were.其中：as they were是从句吗?
是的话,as代指谁?they were后面总感觉少点东西,这样的句子我见过好多了,

Answer 1

they remain
他们仍然/依然是
副词
as
一样, 同样
they were
他们（过去式,表示过去的她们）
他们依然一样是他们
还可以说They are still who they were. 意思差不多
