知识点——  even if/though及与as if/though的辨析 even if/though及与as if/though的辨析 【知识点解析】 一、as if = as though 常用来引导一个让步状语从句或表语从句，常译为“俨然，”“仿佛”，“好像”“犹如”。 如： Crusoe heard a noise as if someone was breathing. He looked as if he had just stepped out of my book of fairy tales and passed me like a spirit. 下面几点在使用时应注意： 1. 当as if 引导的从句所表示的内容并不是事实或真实性很小时，一般该从句要用虚拟语气。但如果表示的内容真实性较大，就要用陈述语气。 even if/though及与as if/though的辨析 【知识点解析】 He walked as if he were still sleeping. An automatic machine works as if it were operated by a man. It looks as if it is going to be very hot today. When the space ship leaves the earth at very high speed, the astronauts feel as if they are being crushed against the space ship floor. even if/though及与as if/though的辨析 【知识点解析】 再比较下面的两个句子： He walks as if he is drunk. 他走起路来像喝醉了似的。 （使用陈述语气说明很可能是喝醉了） He walks as if he were drunk. （使用虚拟语气，表示他根本就没有喝醉） even if/though及与as if/though的辨析 【知识点解析】 在as if 或as though引导的从句中，谓语动词用过去式（be的过去式一般用were，在口语中，主语是一、三人称时也可以用was ）表示与现在实事或情况相反的虚拟：用“had+过去分词”表示与过去实事或情况相反的虚拟。如： He looks as if he were (was) ill. I feel as if I were (was) in a terrible dream. She spoke as if she had known it. 有时也可不用“had +过去分词”而只用动词的过去式来体现虚拟意义。如： He walked past the pole and the soldiers as if they didn’t exist. even if/though及与as if/though的辨析 【知识点解析】 2. 在非正式文体中，尤其在美国英语中，常用like 代替as if。如： It looks like it’s going to rain today.

Father was sitting at the desk, as if thinking about something. ( He )… talking all the while excitedly, as if to himself. 4. as if 前可用程度副词加以修饰或加强语气。如： My teacher treated me exactly as if I were a seeing and hearing child. even if/though及与as if/though的辨析 【知识点解析】 二、even if = even though 常用来引导一个让步从语从句，表示让步，译为“尽管”，“纵然”，“即使”等。 如： But nothing could have saved him even if he had been tended without
