有關"as"的意思 求各位高手解答

Posted by mia1121 on 2017/8/19 9:19:42
最近在書上看到一段話:
Inflation at the wholesale level plunged by the largest amount in nearly three years in February as the price of food and energy products including gasoline fell sharply.
二月份的通貨全面緊縮,達到近三年來的最高點,食物及包括石油在內的能源價格皆大幅下跌。
as the price...這句的as請問意思是什麼呢?
as有如同、當的意思
但我不知道這裡他的意思是什麼
