279. lf you are entrepreneurial, and perhaps have already fallen behind on bills, one positive thing about the current economic climate is that you are starting over at a time when many other people are also faced with starting from scratch financially, and perhaps you may even be in a position where you literally have nothing left to lose, which can be a great time for personal innovation and taking the risk to start in a new industry or implement an idea that's always been in the back of your mind.
如果你有创业精神,而且也许早已人不敷出,当前的经济形势具有对你有利的一面,那就是很多人和你一样面临着资金上从零开始的局面;也许,你已经处于破釜沉舟的境地,这正是自我创新的大好时机:你可以冒险在一个新的行业中开始,或者将某个一直萦绕于心的想法付诸实施。

六级词汇讲解:
本句的主干是...one positive thing..is that...。If you are entrepreneurial, ...on bills 是条件状语从句。第一个that引导的长句that you are starting over...in the back of your mind...为one positive thing的表语从句。其中when引导定语从句when many other people...修饰time; where引导的定语从句修饰position,which引导的非限制性定语从句修饰perhaps you may even be in..,left to lose。

fall behind在句中意为"交不上,付不起",其本义为"落后于"。如:
We don't want to fall behind our competitors.
我们可不想落后于我们的竞争者。

start from scratch意为"从头干起,白手起家"。如:
My company was started from scratch with $500 borrowed from my father.
我的公司算是白手起家,当初我向父亲借了500美元。

implement意为"执行,窦施"。如:
The local government is implementing a new policy to help the old people.
当地政府正在实施一项新的政策以扶助老人。
