Hello!
Can anyone tell me when do we use the structure AS+ADVERB+AS in a sentence?
Thanks in advance......

One use is when you are trying to state that two things/people are doing something at an equal speed/in an equal way.
Sarah writes as neatly as her brother = Sarah and her brother both have the same level of neat handwriting.
James speaks as quickly as John = James and John both speak quickly.
The star was shining as brightly as all the others = the stars were of equal brightness.
Another use is when the second half of the sentence is "as + person + verb". This is when someone does/did something/something is/was done in the "most + adjective = as + adverb + as" way possible.
