Writers since Chaucer`s time have usedlike as a conjunction, but 9th-century and 20th-century critics have been so vehement in their condemnations of this usage that a writer who uses the construction in formal style risks being accused of illiteracy or worse.Prudence requiresThe dogs howled as (not like ) we expected them to. Likeis more acceptably used as a conjunction in informal style with verbs such as feel, look, seem, sound, and taste, as inIt looks like we are in for a rough winter. But here tooas if is to be preferred in formal writing. There can be no objection to the use oflike as a conjunction when the following verb is not expressed, as inHe took to politics like a duck to water. See Usage Note at as together
自喬叟年代起，作家就把like 當(dāng)作連接詞用， 但9世紀(jì)和20世紀(jì)的批評(píng)家強(qiáng)烈譴責(zé)這種用法，在正式文體中使用這種結(jié)構(gòu)的作家就有可能被指責(zé)為文盲或者更糟。為謹(jǐn)慎起見(jiàn)，就寫狗不象 （而不是 like ） 我們想的那樣叫。 Like在非正式文體中可作為連詞和動(dòng)詞如 feel, look, seem, sound 及 taste 連用， 如在看起來(lái)我們將有一個(gè)難熬的冬天 中。 但這句如果出現(xiàn)于正式文體中人們更傾向于用as if 。 如果其后的動(dòng)詞無(wú)明確含義時(shí)，將like 作為連接詞是不會(huì)有任何異議的， 如他對(duì)政治簡(jiǎn)直是如魚得水 參見(jiàn) astogether
