even though与even if的区别
有一题望详细讲解
Never cross the street against a light ____you don`t see any traffic coming.
A.in case B.so that C.even though D. even if
答案给的是C

答案

even if一般引导的是把握不大或假设的事情,
even though引出的是事实.
though 常表示一些已经确定的消息,而if由它本身所带的“如果”的含义,表示了一种对假设信息的不确定.
本题里的you don`t see any traffic coming.,翻译过来应该是“就算你没看见有车过来,”当你过马路等红灯的时候,没车过来是经常会发生的事情,是个事实,不是把握性不大的事情,因此用even though,不用if.
给你几个例句：
She's going to have problems finding a job even if her gets she A levels.就算她考试成绩都是A,她找工作还会碰到问题.（考A是假设的情况）
Even though he's 24 now,he's still like a little child.尽管他24岁了,但他仍然像个孩子.（他24岁了是事实）
Even though he knows it,he'll not let out the secret.（他知道这个秘密）.
Even if he knows it,he'll not let out the secret.（不确定他是否知道这个秘密）.
