1. parallel用作形容词时,没有比较级与最高级形式。

parallel, alike, comparable, similar

这组词都可表示“某人或物在某些方面或某种程度上相同”。其区别是：

similar和alike指整体或某部分相似,用法一样,可互换。但alike暗示的相似程度比similar稍高; comparable指可以放在一起并提或检查的相似物或人; parallel则用在实际上或表面上相似的事物或用于表示其在发展、结构、历史、操作、趋势等方面极其相似。例如:

These two buildings are similar〔alike〕 in size and shape.这两座建筑物的大小和形状相似。

The two cousins are alike in age, but otherwise as different as day and night.这对表兄弟年龄相仿而在其他方面却大相径庭。

The music of Berlin is scarcely comparable to that of Beethoven.柏林的音乐与贝多芬的作品不可同日而语。

Can you name any parallel passages in the composer's first and second symphonies?你能指出作曲家第一、第二交响曲中相似的乐段吗?

alike，like，similar，comparable，parallel，uniform，identical

这些形容词均有“相似的，类似的”之意。

alike指事物在性质、特征或外貌上固有的而不是偶然的相似。普通用词，只作表语。

like普通用词，含义广泛，指多个或全部特性都相似，但并非同一个，也可指在某个特殊的偶然相似。

similar强调不同的人或事物之间完全或部分相似，暗示可暂不考虑或无视其差异之处。

comparable指在某一点或几点上有相似之处，可作有限或粗略的对比，尤指在价值或能力等方面可相提并论。

parallel主要指在外表或在性质上相似到有可以相提并论的程度。

uniform指在性质、数量、形态或程度等方面相似到很难看出差异的地步。

identical语气最强，可指同一个人或物，也可指数个人或物之间完全没有差别。
