【问】 Even if it rains，we shall carry out our plans.

even if从句是条件从句吗?

【答】 if除引导条件从句之外，还可引导让步从句(见if条)。even if是if让步从句的加强形式，大体上相当于even though(即使，虽然，尽管)。这两者有时可以互换使用。

1. He will come even if he is ill.

即使他病了，他也会来的。

2. They'll stand by you even if you don't succeed.

你即使不成功，他们也会支持你的。

3. Even if it is temporal，it is a good plan.

虽然这个计划是暂时性的，但还是很好的。

4. Even though given every opportunity，they would not cooperate with us. (CGEL)即使把每一个机会都给予他们，他们也不愿意同我们合作。

5. He borrowed my mower even though I told him not to.

尽管我告诉他我不能把割草机借给他，他还是借了我的割草机。

even if也可以引导表示非真实情况的从句：

1. Even if he had been here，I should have said the same thing.

即使那时他在这里，我也会那么说的。

2. Even if it had been more dangerous，I should have felt compelled to go.即使那时情况再危险，我也会觉得非去不可的。

3. Even if they offered to pay，I wouldn't accept any money from them. (CGEL)

即使他们主动提出付款，我也不会收他们的钱的。
