英语四级备考课堂笔记
1._______________ ,they went to play football that day.
2.There is no doubt that _____________ .
3.He cannot win a good reputation,______________ .
4.We have reassons to believe that, ______________ .
5.There are plenty of opportunities for everyone in our society,______________ can make use of them to achieve purpose.
答案与解析:
1. Instead of going swimming
原文中没有并不一定要对应成didnt,这里我们可以使用instead of,使译文简洁明了,合乎英语习惯。采用正译法,用英语不带否定词的表达来代替中文的没有去。从本题及Exercise Two中的第二题我们可以得出结论:汉译英时,可以灵活变换句型,充分利用英语的否定或半否定语气的词语或结构,以便使译句符合英语习惯。从另一角度看,后半句英语没有出现表示转折含义的连接词,因此They didnt go swimming也是不成立的,不符合句法规范。
2. the increase in demand resulted in /caused the rise in prices
考生要注意分清result from 和result in的区别。result from指be caused by,是指原因;result in指cause,lead to,是指结果。本题还有一个考点就是:做翻译时,应尽量照顾并行结构的前后一致,如:the increase in demand and the rise in prices。
