▲你的这个句子中 in as many years 的意思是“在三年内”。“in as many +名词复数”是一个惯用表达,表示“在......中”,many 所表示的数字常根据前面的数字而确定。如:

You have made two Blunders in as many minutes. 你在两分钟之内就犯了两个大错误。

There were ten accidents in as many days. 十天里就发生了十起事故。

He made six mistakes in as many paragraphs.他在六段文字中犯了6个错误。

▲所以,你的这个句子意思就是:玛丽在三年内找了三份工作,但她都因为不能胜任而被开除了。
