1 If you hadn't known them, you would have thought Joe and Jim were quite alike. 2 They were both tall and wore long and fair hair. 3 Both of them wore dark clothes as a rule, and they liked light colored ties. 4 But that was all the likeness they had. In other things they were sharply different. 5 Joe was considerate and helpful, and everyone liked him. 6 Jim, however, was very selfish and often flared into terrible anger ( 勃然大怒 ) at little things that displeased him. 7 Alike as Joe and Jim were on the suce, they were really very different in nature.
