9 Even as they never forgave the Crusaders who overran their homeland, the Syrians have never absolved the French for taking territory from them.
(A) Even as they never forgave
(B) While they never forgave
选A，里面的even是什么用法？做什么部分？ 前段时间总发不上去，在斑竹的指导下终于解了燃眉之急，感谢！作者: teyvhf 时间: 2004-8-31 12:40
840 - cost的常用用法：sth cost(v.) sb time/money to do；the cost(n.) to sb of doing sth；the cost(v.) of；D的错误在于A结构中the cost of中of表达的是属性，而the cost to ... of打破了这个结构；另：此题好像是OG补充的一个题目，可参见OG解释；9 - even as = just as 这是固定搭配
