  考研英语是一门需要长时间积累的学科,对于备战2015考研的学子们来说,从现阶段到6月份为夯实基础阶段,在此阶段,同学们应该主攻单词和语法,坚持每天1-2篇的英语阅读以此来培养语感。

  今年奥斯卡《地心引力》“Gravity”是大赢家之一, 这周的经济学人有这样的报道:
  “Gravity”, a thriller set in orbit but filmed in west London, won seven Oscar on March 2nd. Yet Pinewood Studios, in whose buildings the movie was shot, is running out of space.

  词汇突破:
  thriller 情节惊险的电影
  Orbit 轨道(星球)
  Shoot 拍摄
  run out of space 空间不够用了

  句子解析:
1.“Gravity”, a thriller set in orbit but filmed in west London, won seven Oscar on March 2nd.
  主干:“Gravity” won seven Oscar on March 2nd
  逗号之间是同位语; a thriller set in orbit but filmed in west London
  set in orbit(以星球轨道为背景)
  filmed in west London (在伦敦西部拍摄)
  2. Yet Pinewood Studios, in whose buildings the movie was shot, is running out of space.
  句子主干:Yet Pinewood Studios is running out of space.
  逗号之间是定语,但是完全可以单独成句:
  in whose buildings the movie was shot
  这个句子改写为:
  the movie was shot in Pinewood Studios’ buildings
  (再次强调定语从句的处理一定拆分,还原,调整语序)

  参考译文: “地心引力”,一部以星际轨道为背景却在西伦敦拍摄的惊悚片,在3月2日获得了7项奥斯卡奖。但它的拍摄地Pinewood工作室的房间却不够用了。

  在这周的经济学人中大篇幅报道的是Business in emerging markets (新兴市场的商业)
  标题是:Emerge, splurge, purge
  (三个押韵的单词,写出了整篇文章的内容,很有功底)
  导语是这样写的: Western firms have piled into emerging markets in the past 20 years.
  (piled into 大量进入)
  Now comes the reckoning;
  这么短的一个句子其实也是一个倒装:
  The reckoning comes now;
  (reckon 反思)

  参考译文:
  20年前西方公司大量进入新兴市场。
