重点句型

1. The country, covered with cherry tree flowers, looks as though it is covered with pink snow.

as though/as if 意为“好像”。
联想拓展
as though/as if引导方式从句和表语、状语从句：
①引导方式状语从句
She acted as though nothing had happened.
她装得好像什么事也没发生过似的。
注意：当从句主语和主句主语一致,且从句谓语中含有动词be时, 可把主语和be一起省略。
He looked about as though (he was) in search of something.
他四下张望, 好像在寻找什么。
②引导表语从句
It looks as if it’s going to rain.看样子要下雨了。
③as though和as if从句是用虚拟语气, 还是用陈述语气, 完全根据具体情况而定。如果从句表示的意思与事实完全相反, 或者纯粹是一种假设, 通常用虚拟语气。
The child talks as if she were an adult. 那孩子说话的样子好像她是个大人。
