1.表示“甚至”,通常应放在被修饰词语之前,否则会引起含义的变化。比较: Even now he doesn’t believe me. 甚至到现在他还不相信我。(其他时候就不用说了) Now even he doesn’t believe me. 现在连他都不相信我了。(其他人就更不会相信我了) Now he doesn’t even believe me. 现在他甚至不相信我了。(其他方面的事就更不可能了) Now he doesn’t believe even me. 现在他甚至连我都不相信了。(其他人就更不会相信了) 2.用来修饰形容词或副词的比较级,表示“比(已经……的)更加……”。如: Your cooking is even worse than Harry’s. 你的烹饪技术甚至比哈里还差。 Sally drives fast, but Olive drives even faster. 萨莉开车开得很快,奥利夫开得更快。 You seem even more stupid than usual today. 你今天好像比平时更加笨了。 3. even 是副词,不是连词,所以不要误用它引导从句。如: 就算你看见是他拾起的钱,你也不能肯定钱就是他偷的。 误:Even you saw him pick up the money, you can’t be sure he stole it. 正:Even if you saw him pick up the money, you can’t be sure he stole it. 另外,它也不能用介词,将它误用作介词也是初学者常犯的错误。如: 我即便听了他的解释,仍然不明白。 误:Even listening to his explanation I’m none the wiser. 正:Even after listening to his explanation I’m none the wiser.(www.) 引用地址: http://www./Article/201301/3144.html 文章录入:admin 责任编辑:admin
