用法辨析

adv. (副词)

even作“确实是”“甚至是”解时主要用在表示意外的词语前加强语气,可用来修饰动词或名词。
even也可放在形容词或副词的比较级前加强语气,意思是“更加”“愈加”“还”。
even的位置应靠近它所强调的词或短语。一般须置于系动词be或助动词、情态动词之后,实义动词之前。在句中位置的不同影响整个句子的意思。
not even表示一种反面的意外事情,指连最低级限度的情况或最小的事物都不存在。

v. (动词)

even用作形容词意思是“平坦的”,转化为动词意思是“使变平”,引申可作“使相等,使平衡”解。
even是及物动词,接名词或代词作宾语。
even out的意思是“(使)平稳〔衡〕,压平”; even up的意思是“拉平,使相抵,使相等,使平衡”; even up on sb 的意思是“向某人报答”。

adj. (形容词)

even的基本含义是“平的”,指物体在同一平面上或同一线上的各点保持均匀,即表面平整,水平线平直。even作“均匀的,有规律的,稳定的”解时既可指事物的运动,也可指人的性格毫无变化。even作“相等的,均衡的”解时指质量、距离、价值等,也可指人或事物的不相上下。even还可作“双数的,偶数的”解,通常用于数学方面。
even在句中可用作定语,表语或补语。其比较级和最高级有evener, evenest和more even, most even两种形式。
even常被用来表示极度的惊讶，如别人做了超乎我们想象的事。He's even rude to the police. 他甚至对警察都很粗鲁。
