我對於for all 用法不甚了然。請分析。

答：在for all 結構中, for 為介係詞, all 作後面的名詞片語的修飾語, for all 表示讓步, 可以譯為“儘管”、“雖然”, 相當於表示讓步的with all :

1. With / For all his boasting and ostentatious training, he was knocked out in the first round.
   儘管他受過誇張招搖的訓練, 但是他在第一回合就被擊倒了。
2. For all this efforts, he didn’t succeed.
   儘管他作了一切努力, 但是仍未成功。
3. For all her money, Mrs Hooper isn’t happy.
   胡珀夫人儘管很有錢, 但是不幸福。
