一道高一英语题目……进来看看吧

Tom is the tallest boy in the class,________according to himself .
A.five foot eight as tall as
B.as tall as five foot eight
C.as five foot eight tall as
D.as tall five foot eight as
希望能详细解释一下每一个选项的含义……实在是费解啊！！在这里先谢过了……
是tomas tall as five foot eight 吗？？为什么后面有five foot eight ？不是在as后加比较的对象吗？？求解啊

Answer 1

as....as.... 像...一样...
as tall as the tree 像树一样高
五英尺八英寸的高度可以理解成一个虚拟的拥有这个高度的物体，用长度来描述。
于是可以替换词组中的tree
而后边的according to himself意思是"他自己说的" 和前边不是同一层意思，所以选择不受后边影响。

Answer 2
