(单词翻译:单击)
模拟演习:
1. He wrote to say ___________________(他们终究还是不能给我一份工作).
2. There’s a man at the reception desk who seems very angry and I think he means__________________(想找麻烦).
3. I would_______________(不会诉诸法律)a court of law if I hadn’t been so desperate.
4. This popular sports car_________________(正在生产出来)out at the rate of a thousand a week.
5. Mark often_________________(试图逃脱罚款)whenever he breaks traffic regulations.
答案:
1. they couldn’t give me a job after all
(本句直译即可,say后面一般跟宾语从句,所译的部分即为从句内容,“终究”用after all来表示)
2. to make trouble
(本题考查固定短语make trouble“找麻烦”,此外还考查mean to do sth的结构)
3. have never resorted to
(本题考查虚拟语气的形式,根据从句用的hadn’t been 可知,主句应用would have done 的形式。Resort to 用于表示“诉诸”)
4. is now being turned
(根据时间副词“正在”和“车是被生产的”这一概念可以判断出译文应用现在进行时的被动语态,即be being 动词的过去分词形式,本题另一难点在“turn out”生产这个词组上,题干只给出了out,需要填入turn将其补全)
5. attempts to escape being fined
(本题考查固定短语attempt to do sth表示“努力做某事”,其次考查escape的用法,其后要接动名词形式,常与介词from搭配)
