★英语短语“feel as if”或“feel as though”均表达“感觉好像”等意思，但在现代英语，尤其是口语中常被短语“feel like”代替使用。“feel like”在严谨语法中，like（像）为介词，其后照理说应该接名词作宾语，但实际使用时结构为“feel like+主语+动词”（相当于“feel as if引导的状语从句”）：

feel as if=feel as though=feel like——感觉好像……

又如：as if=as though=like——好像……

★实战演练：

=Ian feels as though he had been cheated.

=Ian feels like he had been cheated.

伊恩觉得自己被骗了。

=I feel as though I've been roasted.

=I feel like I've been roasted.

我觉得自己好像被烤过一样。

It looks as if it's going to rain.

=It looks as though it's going to rain.

=It looks like it's going to rain.
