I have nothing to do as well.
我也无事可做。句中的as well相当于“either”。注意:在表达“也”这一意思时,可以用as well, too, also, either. 但是,also一般用于较为正式的文体当中,它的位置一般靠近动词,放在行为动词的前面,位于连系动词be、情态动词或助动词的后面。either只能用于否定句,且必须放在句末。as well和too通常是放在句子的末尾,as well既可用于肯定句,也可用于否定句,而too只用于肯定句,且一般放在句末,用或不用逗号分开均可。但有时也可放在句中作插入语,前后都要用逗号分开。如:
On the hill there are also a lot of people.
