Exercise Twenty-Six

1. Man，no less than the lower forms of life，_______________（是演化过程的产物）. 2. _______________（不止一个人觉察到）her agitation. 3. ________________（液体密度越大），the easier it is to float on it. 4. _______________（只有工人的要求得到满足）will they return to work.

5. Had ________________（要不是有水库）we'd never have been able to beat the drought. 答案与解析

1. is a product of the evolutionary process

解析：单数名词＋with，together with，along with，as well as，accompanied by，no less than，rather than，in addition to，instead of，including，besides等＋名词结构作主语时，谓语动词用单数。Man在这里是个单数概念，指全人类，因此句子谓语部分要用单数is。再如：

A technician，along with some young workers，is working on the design.（技术员正在和一些青年工人一道搞设计。）本题全句意为：人类，同生命的低级形式一样，是演化过程的产物。

2. More than one person has noticed

解析：many a或more than one所修饰的名词作主语时，谓语动词必须用单数。所以句子需填入部分谓语译成has，又由于"觉察到"暗示了动作已经发生，因此用完成时态。但是，考生要注意的是：如果more than one后面又出现了thousand，hundred等，动词就要用复数，如：More than one thousand graduates have responded to the Party's call and gone to work in the border regions.（一千多名毕业生响应党的号召，到边疆工作去了。）

3. The denser a liquid is考试大论坛

解析：本题考查的是"the＋adj.比较级，the＋adj.比较级"的结构，表示"越......越......"。The denser在句中充当表语。当表语前置，主语和系动词用正常语序即可。当前置的表语为形容词词组、介词短语等，主语和系动词就要倒装。如：To north of the town was little village，where I spent my childhood in happiness.（在这个小城镇的北边有一个小村庄，我在那儿幸福地度过了我的童年。）

4. Only when the workers' demands are satisfied

解析：本题考查only修饰的状语放在句首，主谓要倒装。Will they return to work已经给出暗示。此外，only＋副词，only＋介词短语置于句首，主谓也要倒装。如：Only with the aid of telescope can he observe the celestial bodies.（只有借助望远镜，他才能观测到天体。）值得注意的是：如果句首only修饰的是主语，则不需要倒装。如：Only Tom has been to the small island once before.（只有汤姆以前去过那个小岛一次。）

5. it not been for the reservoir解析：由于句首已经给出Had，那么这里就是考查虚拟语气省略if引起的主谓倒装。由主句时态可知，从句情况与过去事实相反，因此用过去完成时态。另外，如果句首倒装的条件句含有否定词not，且had提前，一般不可使用省略式n't，而应将not置于条件句之后。本题意为：若不是有水库，我们绝不能战胜干旱。

1. _______________（青少年犯罪的主要原因是由于）that social environment is becoming worse.

2. The workmen think _______________（遵守安全规则很重要）.

3. The new government was accused _____________（未实现其降低失业率的承诺）.

4. Only with combined efforts，________________（我们才能期望台湾不久有新的面貌）.

5. Several thousands of quake-smitten inhabitants ________________（得到了政府充分的救济）.

参考答案：

1. The main reason why juveniles commit crimes is

解析：要正确翻译此句需要了解两点。第一，运用"......的原因是由于"的英语句型The reason why...is that...。在汉语句型里往往可以重复使用"因为"这个词，而英语只能用一次。第二，"青少年犯罪"叫做juveniles commit crimes，不能用young children，如：juvenile books（青少年读物）；juvenile fashions（青少年的时装）。

2. it crucial to abide by the safety regulations

解析：本题考查了think it important/necessary/crucial/enjoyable...to do sth. 的表达。"安全规则"可以译成safety regulations/rules，"遵守"可以用以下词汇或词语：abide by，observe，stand to。

3. of unfulfilling his promise to lower the unemployment rate

解析：本题意为：新政府因未实现其降低失业率的承诺而被控诉。由于题干已经给出...was accused，那么译文必须采用be accused of doing的结构。"未实现"不能用unrealize，unrealize是指"使不真实，使不实在"，用unfulfil更准确。To lower the unemployment rate作后置定语修饰promise。

4. can we expect Taiwan to take a new face in due course

解析：本句意为：唯有通力合作，我们才能期望台湾不久有新的面貌。由于句子是由only with开头，后半句必须采用倒装形式。另外，"期望......"通常用"expect＋that＋从句"或"expect＋to＋V."结构。"呈现出新面貌"的惯用表达是：to take a new face/to take a new look."不久"的说法较多：in the coming future；before long；by and by；soon；in due course。

5. got plentiful relief from the government

解析：首先肯定的是，本句时态要用一般过去时，因为从中文谓语部分可知这是对过去事实的描述。"充分的"在这里是表示"数量大的，供应丰富的"，所以不能选用表示程度的adequate；而abundant通常用在be abundant in短语中使用，如：be abundant in petroleum deposits（石油储量丰富）；这里可以选用plentiful，sufficient."救济"是指public assistance，表示来自公共的物质援助。固定短语people on relief就是专门指接受救济的人。。。）

Exercise Twenty-Four

1. It was essential that _______________（我们在月底前签订合同）.

2. _______________（家庭人口多好还是人口少好）is a very popular topic，which is often talked about not only by city residents but by farmers as well.

3. We must _____________（用一切可能的办法来帮助他们）.

4. We ________________（尽情地吃了一顿）at the new restaurant last Friday.

5. To most of the travelers，________________（衣、食、住、行）are all important elements.

参考答案：

1. We sign the contract by the end of the month考试大，考试伴你同行

解析：当表示愿望，要求，命令等含义的形容词如advisable，appropriate，better，best，desirable，essential，fitting，imperative，important，impossible，incredible，insistent，natural，necessary，obligatory，preferable，proper，ridiculous，strange，surprising，urgent，vital出现在形式主语句中时，从句要用虚拟语气。"签订合同"英语固定说法是sign the contract。"在月底前"要用by the end of，而不是at the end of。

2. Whether a large family is good or not

解析：如果按照中文顺序逐一翻译就会得出译文Whether a large family is good thing or a small family is a good thing，这并没有语法错误，但不符合英语表达习惯。"家庭人口多好还是少好"可以理解为：家庭人口多是好事？还是坏事？所以这里我们可以采用反译法，将"还是人口少好"转移为汉语意思为"（人口多是好）还是不好"的英文表达--or not，使译文简洁明了，避免罗嗦。

3. help them in every way possible

解析：本题最有可能出现的译文是：use very possible way to help them。这样译文不能说错，但不是最间接、最好的翻译。英语里，通常把方式状语放在谓语部分之后，所以可得出译文：help them in every possible way。原句"可能"出现在被修饰语"办法"之前。根据英文习惯，"可能"的对应词possible应该放在所修饰的中心词way之后，所以有了最终译文：help them in every way possible。

4. ate to our hearts' content

解析：本题让考生们困扰的是如何翻译"一顿"这个量词。其实，"一顿"是汉语特有的量词表达，是对"吃"这个动作的补充说明。"在那家新餐馆吃"就暗含了"吃了一顿"的含义。英语里没有"一顿"的对应词。一般来说，可以不译，不影响全句意思的表达。"尽情地"是个固定搭配，可译成：to one's heart's content或to the top of one's bent。

5. food，clothing，shelter，transportation

解析：本题要求考生熟悉汉英习语在转移时的异同。有些汉语习语在转移成英语时不需要变换位置。如：日日夜夜（day and night）；但也有一些需要改变前后顺序，如：新旧（old and new）；水火（fire and water）；田径（track and field）；钢铁（iron and steel）；贫富（rich and poor）；血肉（flesh and blood）。请注意本题中哪些词语的英译改变了顺序。。

1. Our enemies watch their time and _______________（妄图东山再起）.

2. Mr. Jack walked out on his wife and _______________（带着他的孩子离开了家）.

3. Mrs. Beck ________________（一直受到她丈夫照管）since she was collapsed.

4. He has no money，so he _______________（不得不收回自己说过的话）.

5. The runner ________________（被剥夺掉金牌）for men's 100-meter dash at games because he was found to have taken stimulants.

参考答案：

1. try in vain to stage a comeback

解析：watch their time表示伺机而动、等待时机。watch在这里含贬义。"妄图"本身具有很强的感情色彩，它包括这样两层意思：第一，试图做某事；第二，这种尝试是徒劳的。因此，在翻译时一定要注意译文的准确性。译文中的in vain意思即为"徒劳的，无效的"。"东山再起"也是一个惯用表达，英语可以说stage a comeback，stage作动词，表示筹备、策划；comeback是一个复合词，表示恢复、复原。

2. left home with his children

解析：本句是一个并列复合句，由and连接。前半句谓语动词是walked，后半句谓语动词是"离开"，而"带着他的孩子"作为伴随状语说明"离开了家"的状态，可以用"with＋名词"或"bringing＋名词"的结构。本句还有一个难点是固定短语walk out on sb.的用法，意思是"抛弃某人、离开某人"，如：You want to walk out on me when I badly need you.（你在我正需要你的时候却想离开我。）

3. has been under the care of her husband

解析：since暗示前面动作的延续性，本句意为：自从贝克太太身体垮下来之后，就一直受到丈夫的照管。句子需填入部分要用现在完成时。collapse有时也可以指精神的崩溃。如：Being pressed too much，one would collapse.（压力过大会使人崩溃。）

4. had to swallow his words

解析：本题考查对习语swallow one's words的理解，swallow指"吞咽"，所以很多考生会望文生义，认为"swallow one's words"意思是"食言"。"食言"是指说过的话不算话，不讲信用，因此应该英译成break one's promise或break one's words。

5. was deprived of his gold medal

解析：本句意为：因为有人发现这位赛跑运动员在赛前吃了激素，他被剥夺掉了100米冲刺的金牌。"被剥夺"可以选用be deprived of或be stripped of，大家要注意区别deprive和derive的区别。两者含义不同。Derive表示"得自、起源"，常与from搭配使用。如：Many English words were originally derived from Latin.许多英语单词最初都源自拉丁文。
