你提出了一很好的问题,这是 N.E.C.(4)lesson 2 中的句子,我理解这句是这样的:原句省略了一些字,as many people think (they are insects).

原句可写成:

Spiders are not insects nor even nearly related to them,as many people think ( they are insects).

这句又相当于:

Spiders are not insects nor even near related to them,though many people think(they

are insects).

是带有表示相反(constrast)意思的状语从句的句子.为了更突出 “Spiders are not insects”与

很多人的想法不一致,把 “as many people think” 移到前面,以插入语的形式出现——实际上

是状语从句.

它的意义为:

尽管很多人以为蜘蛛是昆虫,但蜘蛛并不是昆虫………

与很多人的想法相反,蜘蛛不是昆虫……(意译)
