5.Long before children are able to speak or understand a language,they can communicate with adults ________________(通过面部表情和靠发出噪声).
1. it brings a promise
解析:这是一句非常富有哲理的话,意思是"当机遇来临的时候,伴之而来的是成功的希望,然而希望不会自己实现"。句子需填入部分"伴之而来的是成功的希望" 看似表达非常复杂,其实意思很简单,即:机遇会带来希望,那么对这个句子的翻译就简单了,为避免重复,"机遇"可以用it代替。"成功的希望"用名词 promise,如:a young man full of promise(大有前途的年轻人)。这个词的常用意思是"诺言,承诺"。大家要注意,少数情况下我们会碰到一些看似结构复杂的句子,但只要读懂字里行间就可以化复杂为简单。这也是英汉互译时的一个必备技巧。
2. achieve something or fulfill your ambitions
解析:本题考查短语搭配。"取得成就"可以有这样的表达:make achievements或achieve something,前者"成就"作名词,后者作动词。"实现雄心壮志"中"实现"可选用realize,fulfill,
此外 true,ut也有实现梦想/理想之意。
3. always makes adequate preparations
解析:"作准备"的表达有:for;make 。"充分的"可选形容词有:enough,sufficient,adequate,而well-prepared多在句中充当表语成分,如:His counsel was well-prepared.(他的律师作了充分准备。)全句的后半部分meet opportunities也可以作为考点,它表示"抓住机遇",并不是"看见机遇"。meet还有"达到要求、满足愿望或意见一致"等意。如:The firm has done its best to meet us on that point.(公司在那方面已尽了最大的努力来满足我们的要求。)
4. are reflected in facial expressions
解析:"行之于"是一个古汉语表达,正如在第一题给大家说到,有时候在汉译英时会遇到一些看似复杂的语言,但只要读懂字里行间意译即可。"行之于 "是说人内心的喜怒哀乐
3. always makes adequate preparations
解析:"作准备"的表达有:for;make 。"充分的"可选形容词有:enough,sufficient,adequate,而well-prepared多在句中充当表语成分,如:His counsel was well-prepared.(他的律师作了充分准备。)全句的后半部分meet opportunities也可以作为考点,它表示"抓住机遇",并不是"看见机遇"。meet还有"达到要求、满足愿望或意见一致"等意。如:The firm has done its best to meet us on that point.(公司在那方面已尽了最大的努力来满足我们的要求。)
4. are reflected in facial expressions
解析:"行之于"是一个古汉语表达,正如在第一题给大家说到,有时候在汉译英时会遇到一些看似复杂的语言,但只要读懂字里行间意译即可。"行之于 "是说人内心的喜怒哀乐
通过面部表情都可以反映出来,因此联系前文就不难译出:are reflected in facial expressions。
5. through facial expressions and by making noises
解析:本题意为:在孩子们能够表达或理解一门语言之前的很长一段时间,他们靠面部表情和发出噪声和大人们交流。"通过面部表情和靠发出噪声"在句中充当方式状语,表示某种途径或方法。"面部表情"是一个名词短语,前加介词through,而"发出噪声"make noise是一个带有动作性的动词短语,因此通过发出噪声应选用by+doing的结构。同样是表示方法途径,前面的介词选择却有不同,考生要注意比较
