求问关于unlike和like的用法

gator21

14. Originally published in 1950, Some Tame Gazelle was Barbara Pym’s first novel, but it does not read like an apprentice work.

(A) does not read like an apprentice work

(B) seems not to read as an apprentice work

(C) does not seem to read as an apprentice work would

(D) does not read like an apprentice work does（A）

(E) reads unlike an apprentice work

为什么不选E，E不是比A更简洁吗？是不是不能用unlike的缘故?

read unlike不等于do not read like,这个是语义上的细小差别.

OG中有一题

While Jackie Robinson was a Brooklyn Dodger, his courage in the face of physical threats and verbal attacks was not unlike that of Rosa Parks, who refused to move to the back of a bus in Montgomery, Alabama.

(A) not unlike that of Rosa Parks, who refused

(B) not unlike Rosa Parks, who refused

(C) like Rosa Parks and her refusal

(D) like that of Rosa Parks for refusing（A）

(E) as that of Rosa Parks, who refused

似乎意味not unlike= like

如果是这样的话，那么为何not like＝unlike就是错的？

你所说的细小差别到底是差别在哪？

首先就你新举的这个题目来说,D中的for refusing是做原因状语,不是定语对RP进行的修饰.再看like 和not unlike,2个表达意思很相近.但是语气上有很大的差别.like语气平淡,而not unlike是双重的否定,语气比较的强烈,这个和中文里的习惯还是比较相似的.不知道我这么解释楼主明白了没有,欢迎继续讨论.

第一题，注意否定的位置，要否定主要动词。i think she is not pretty. 永远不如i don't think she is pretty.

第二题， 注意是肯定形式的双重否定形式， 意在强调。

我有一个疑问：如果此处的 it 指的是 novel，那么为什么 read 不用被动语态？小说是被读的嘛！
