even的用法说明
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。(其它时候就不用说了)
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:
This film is even more interesting than that one. 这部电影比那部更有趣。
I often drive fast, but he drives even faster. 我经常开车开得很快,但他却开得更快。
3. even 是副词,不是连词,所以不要用它引导从句。如:
即使正雨我也会来(from www.yywords.com)。
误:I will come even it rains.
正:I will come even if [even though] it rains.
即使你不喜欢喝酒,也不妨尝尝这一杯。
误:Even you don’t like wine, try a glass of this.
正:Even if you don’t like wine, try a glass of this.
