even if / even though

No, they are not interchangeable. If you want to use even though, the meaning changes.

Even though means despite the fact that and is a more emphatic version of though and although.

Even if means whether or not and has to do with the conditions that may apply.
  

Compare the following:
  1. Even if I had two hours to spare for shopping, I wouldn't go out and buy a suit.
  2. Even though I had two hours to spare for shopping, I couldn't find the suit I wanted.

The first example describes an unreal situation where we could substitute 'just supposing' for even if and say: just supposing I had two hours to spare for shopping, I still wouldn't go out and buy a suit.

The second example describes a real situation where the shopper spent two hours looking for a particular kind of suit, but couldn't find it. When we attach even to though in this way, we are in effect saying: you may find this surprising but...!

  

Compare the following pairs of sentences:
  • Even though he lost his job as Arts Minister, he continued to serve in the government.
  • Even if he loses his job as Arts Minister, I think he'll continue to serve in the government.

  • Even though the injury was serious, she decided to carry on playing. It was an important match.
  • I know she'll want to carry on playing, even if she gets injured. It's an important match.

  • Even though I've cleaned it and polished it, it still doesn't look new.
  • Even if I clean and polish it, it still won't look new.

even

Note that even cannot be used as a conjunction like even if and even though when it stands alone.

We cannot say:

Even I've polished and cleaned it, it still doesn't look new.

When even stands alone, it functions as an adverb and means this is more than or less than expected. Again, you are registering something that may be surprising when you use it.

Study the following and note the position of even in these sentences:

  • I can't dive. I can't even swim!
  • She speaks so many languages. German, Polish, Russian, Arabic, French, Spanish. She even speaks Catalan!

Even can also go at the beginning of a phrase when it refers to words or expressions that we wish to emphasize, again because this is surprising information for the listener:

  • He works all through the year. Even at Christmas and New Year!
  • I know his English isn't very good but even I can understand him!

even so

Even so is a prepositional phrase that can be used in a similar fashion to introduce a fact that is surprising in the context of what has been said before. It connects ideas between clauses or sentences:

  • I know her English isn't very good, but even so I can understand her.
  • The evidence was only circumstantial. Even so, he was convicted and spent ten years in prison for a crime that he perhaps did not commit

B中,even if it is by no means certain that the expenditure of large sums of money will produce.我觉得这个will 有必要保留啊,表示不知道真正建造时需要多少花费,而真正建造时是将来的事情啊

说到底 even if 和 even though 中的even都是表示语气的加强,是“即使”的意思,故even if是"即使如果",even though是"即使尽管"

而if引导的从句使用will必错这是一定的,所以even if其实也不能引导带有将来时的从句

弱弱地问一下,D选项是什么从句?

完全感觉不出是E,如果不是答案说是E,我就认为没答案。

there is no certainty as to the expenditure of money in large sums producing

as to 这个是怎么翻译?依据下面的意思可以理解为 “就像”?

搜索了下是

There
        is
        no agreement or convention as
        to just what it is.
它到底是多大并无统一看法,也无常规可循。
它后面为什么用的是producing呢?为什么不是 produced?
