as soon as possible/as soon as possibly(?)

【问】 as soon (quick) as possible与as soon (quick) as possibly哪个格式正确?

【答】 我发现许多中国学生在作文或书信中使用as soon (quick) as possibly这样的格式。他们想当然地认为，这里应当使用副词possibly，岂不知as soon (quick) as possible是固定格式，而as soon (quick) as possibly是错误的。下面是一些具体实例：

1. Just get them to finish up as quick as possible. (Priestley)

尽快把它们结束。

2. He wants this job done as soon as possible. (Nelson)

他想尽快干完这项工作。

3. Can you fix our pipes as soon as possible? (TOEFL)

你能尽快修好我们的管道吗?

4. Make him as comfortable as possible. (TOEFL)

让他尽量感到舒适。
