【用法归纳】
辨析be similar to,take after与look like
这三个短语都有“像”的意思。be similar to 指“与什么相似”,用途很广泛。take after 指“(在长相或性格上)像某人(尤指像父母或亲属)”如
A cat is similar to a tiger in many ways.猫同虎有很多地方相像。
Your situation is similar to mine.你的处境和我的相似。
Mary really takes after her mother.玛丽的确长得像她的妈妈。
take after与look like 是一对近义词组,它们的用法是:take after意为“长得像”或“行为、性格等像”,尤其是指像。而look like可以用于所有场合,既可指人也可指物,只指外表“看上去像”。 如:
Does she look like或take after her mother?她长得是不是很像她母亲?
