PHRASAL VERB USES 短语动词用法 Part-1 1 [ADV 副词]甚至；连；即使 You use even to suggest that what comes just after or just before it in the sentence is rather surprising. [ADV with cl/group] He kept calling me for years, even after he got married... 多年来他一直打电话给我，甚至是在他结婚以后。 Even dark-skinned women should use sunscreens... 即使黑皮肤的女性也应该涂抹防晒霜。 I cannot come to a decision about it now or even give any indication of my own views... 现在我无法对此作出决定，甚至就连自己是什么观点也不能作任何暗示。 He didn't even hear what I said. 他甚至没听见我说什么。 2 [ADV 副词]（与形容词、副词的比较级连用）更加，愈发 You use even with comparative adjectives and adverbs to emphasize a quality that someone or something has. [ADV compar] [emphasis] It was on television that he made an even stronger impact as an interviewer... 作为采访者，是电视让他产生了更大的影响。 During his second day Edward looked even more pale and quiet than on his first... 第二天，爱德华看起来比前一天更加苍白，也更加安静了。 Stan was speaking even more slowly than usual. 斯坦说得比平常还要慢。 3 [PHR-CONJ-SUBORD ]即使；尽管；纵然 You use even if or even though to indicate that a particular fact does not make the rest of your statement untrue. Cynthia is not ashamed of what she does, even if she ends up doing something wrong... 辛西娅不为自己的所作所为感到羞愧，即使最终证明她所做的是错误的。 Even though I'm supposed to be working by myself, there are other people who I can interact with. 即便是需要我一个人工作，我还是可以和别人进行交流的。 4 [PHR-CONJ-SUBORD ]恰巧在…时候；正当 If one thing happens even as something else happens, they both happen at exactly the same time.
