【教材原句】

【辨析】
两者都可以引导状语从句,但意思完全不同。
as if (=as though)意思是“仿佛,好像”,引导方式状语从句;在look, seem, feel, sound等系动词后引导表语从句。
even though (= even if) 意思是“即使,尽管,纵然”,引导让步状语从句。
温馨提示:as if/though引导的从句有时用虚拟语气
①如果句子所述内容是真实的或极有可能发生或存在的事实时, as if/though从句谓语动词用陈述语气。
②如果从句所述内容是不真实的或不可能发生或存在的情况时,as if/though从句谓语动词用虚拟语气, 即根据不同情况谓语动词用一般过去时(表示与现在事实相反)、过去完成时(与过去事实相反)和would/could/might + 动词原形(与将来事实相反)。
