英語六級(jí)攻克閱讀關(guān)鍵句212. Even so, dog cloning is a commercial oppo

212. Even so, dog cloning is a commercial opportunity, with a nice research payoff.

譯文　盡管如此，狗克隆項(xiàng)目是一次商業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)，這方面研究已取得了不錯(cuò)的結(jié)果。

點(diǎn)睛　本句的主干是...dog cloning is a commercial opportunity...。even so為讓步狀語；with引導(dǎo)伴隨狀語。

commercial意為“商業(yè)的”。如：

Commercial television is an effective medium for advertising. 商業(yè)電視是有效的廣告宣傳工具。

payoff意為“清算；收益；成果”。如：

If we must treat others with kindness and charity, it can only be because there is some payoff in it for us. 如果我們必須以友善和憐憫之心對(duì)待他人，那僅僅是因?yàn)檫@樣做對(duì)我們有利。

考點(diǎn)歸納　even so和even though無論在讀音上還是形式上都十分相近，但是二者的含義和用法完全不同：

even so是一個(gè)獨(dú)立的結(jié)構(gòu)，可以作插入語，意為“盡管如此”。如：

Even so, afraid the fellow might let me down, he worried for quite a time. 盡管如此，他還是一直不放心，怕同伴會(huì)讓我失望。

even though是以even強(qiáng)調(diào)though的語氣，只能作為表示轉(zhuǎn)折的連詞使用。如：

Even though some people objected, laws were passed. 盡管有人反對(duì)，但法規(guī)還是被通過了。
