P199 Q31

Alike characteristics of two phenomena do not necessarily mean that they must be correlated in any way.

ANS:A 改成similar

這題我知道是A 但是我不知道為什麼不可以用Alike??
兩個同樣都是形容詞吧
可不可以有人幫我解答一下
謝謝^^

Collins Cobuild

If two or more things are alike, they are similiar in some way.
Alike means in a similiar way.

You use alike after mentioning two or more people, groups, or things in order to emphasize that you are referring to both or all of them.

[satomath]

alike 當作形容詞使用放在連綴動詞(be,appear,become,feel,look,prove,seem,sound,smell,taste)之後。

[維尼]

這題的關鍵在於 alike 這種形容詞有一個規定
From Longman:

[not before noun]
- very similar
My mother and I are alike in many ways.
