Check the answers. Try to repeat and imitate.
Martin: Hey, Jenny, your hometown is really beautiful.
Jenny: Yes, I’ve been away for the past few years, but I still love this town. Even
though it's old, it's full of interesting places to see and things to do.
Martin: Wow, look at that building! I’ve never seen anything like it!
Jenny: Yes, that’s one of the oldest buildings in this town. It’s been around for
hundreds of years. It's now the town library.
Martin: What about the building next to it
Jenny: Oh, that’s the new science museum. It’s only been here since last August.
There’s a really big park behind the museum. Many families go there on
weekends to let the kids run around and climb the hills.
Martin: Nice. Can we check it out
Jenny: Sure. But first, let’s have lunch at this restaurant down the street.
It’s been around for as long as I can remember. It serves the best food in town.
1. Even though it’s old, it’s full of interesting places to see and things to do.
1) even though 和 even if 两者均可用于引导让步状语从句,其细微区别是:even if 引导的从句是往往是假设性的,相当于汉语的“即使”“纵然”“就算”“哪怕”。
even though引导的从句内容往往是真实的,主要用于引出不利于主句情况的信息,相当于汉语的“尽管”“虽然”。不过,在实际语言运用中,even if与even though有时也可不加区别地混用。
e.g. 即使明天下雨,我们也决不改变计划。
Even if it rains tomorrow, we won’t change our plan.
他尽管经验最少,但教得最好。
He’s the best teacher even though he has the least experience.
尽管她嘲笑他,他还是很喜欢她。
Even if / Even though she laughs at him, he likes her.
e.g.虽然我们已尽了最大的力量,但还是输了。
Although/Though/Even though we all tried our best, we lost the game.
我们输了,然而我们已尽了最大的力量。
We lost the game although/though/even though we tried our best.
2) although和(even) though均可用于句首或从句之首。though多用于非正式文体中,较为通俗。
2. It’s been around for as long as I can remember.
as … as … 意为“和……一样”,表示同级的比较。其基本用法为:“as + adj. / adv. + as …”。其否定式为: “not as + adj. / adv. + as … ”。
e.g.他英语说的和你一样流利。
He speaks English as fluently as you.
这部字典不如你想象的那样有用。
This dictionary is not as useful as you think it is.
