2013高考英語高頻詞匯難點解析:即使
【句子】
Even though the precise qualities of hero in literary words may vary over time, the basic exemplary function of the hero seems to remain constant.
當代文學作品中的英雄本色雖各有千秋,但其昭世功力卻是恒古不變的。
【解析】
1.even though和even if的用法區別
1)even if 引導的從句是往往是假設性的,相當于漢語的“即使”“縱然”“就算”“哪怕”
They’ll stand by you even if you don’t succeed.
即使你不成功,他們也會支持你。
【注意】
正因為even if從句的內容通常是假設性的,所以有時還可用于虛擬語氣;這樣用的even if 與單獨使用的if比較接近
Even if he had the money, he wouldn’t buy it.
他即使有錢也不會買它。
2)even though 引導的從句內容往往是真實的,主要用于引出不利用于主句情況的信息,相當于漢語的“盡管”“雖然”
He went out even though it was raining.
盡管在下雨,他還是出去了。
3)不過,在實際語言運用中,even if與even though有時也可不加區別地混用
Even if [Even though] she laughs at him, he likes her.
盡管她嘲笑他,他還是很喜歡她。
2.precise
1)adj.精確的;恰好的;準確的;嚴格的
With the new technique, measurement was claimed to be much more precise.
有了這種技術,人們斷言測量的結果會精確得多。
2)precise, accurate, exact辨析
這三個詞都有“準確,精確”的意思。
accurate強調“準確性”,即“與事實無出入”;
exact指數量上或質量上高度準確,強調各細節均與事實或標準完全符合,“絲毫不差”;
precise是正式用詞,含意是“明確,精密”,強調定義或界限的鮮明和準確,含有刻板的意味。
3.literary
adj. 文學的;書面的;從事文學研究的
He is endowed with literary talent.
他有文學天分。
4.exemplary
adj.可仿效的;模范的
And this exemplary treatment of herself by herself constitutes her presence.
這種作為模范的自我待遇,正構成了她的風度。
