using cp command to make soft link problem

" ln -s linux-2.24 linux " has the effect which makes a soft link
" linux" point to "linux-2.24" directory(linux->linux-2.24) ,since cp
command has -s (make symbolic links instead of copying) option, I do
"cp -s linux-2.24 linux " ,but didn't have the same effection . I
want to know whether cp have some tips can do this .Many Thanks.
