  2.Jane is tired of dealing with customer complaints and wishes that she _________________(能被分配做另一项工作)
  3.John rescued the drowning child_________________ (冒着自己生命危险).
  4.George called his boss from the airport but it _________________ (接电话的却是他的助手)
  5.Although he was interested in philosophy, _________________(他的父亲说服他)majoring in law.

答案详解:
  1.nor did they make any explanation / nor did they give the reason for doing so
  本题考察了两个知识点。① nor的倒装句用法,后半句表示也不的否定意义,注意助动词的时态与上半句保持一致;② 对某事做出解释的表达,考察了汉译英中动词转名词的技巧,explain → explanation,或者nor did they give the reason for doing so同样可以。
  2.could be assigned (to) another job
  本题考察了wish从句的虚拟语气用法(can→could)和分配某人做某事的词组搭配,assign sb. to sth. 或者assign sb. sth.
  3.at the risk of his own life
  本题考察了冒着…的危险/风险做某事的词组搭配,可以用at the risk / expense of one’s own life(冒着某人的生命危险做某事)
  4.①was his assistant who answered / picked up the phone;②turned out that his assistant answered / picked up the phone
  该句比较灵活,在句法上,既可以使用强调句结构,也可以采用turn out的惯用搭配;在接电话的表达上,可以用pick up / answer the phone。强调句结构为it be sb. who do sth. ,而turn out变化则较多,可以用turn out to be sb. who do sth.或者turn out + that + 从句。
  5. his father persuaded him into / talked him into
  本题考察说服某人做某事的表达,persuade / talk sb. into doing sth.
