考研英語(yǔ)難句突破3句
1. There is “the democratizing uniformity of dress and discourse,and the casualness and absence of deference” characteristic of popular culture.
【譯文】 (美國(guó)社會(huì)出現(xiàn))“服飾和話語(yǔ)趨于平民化的一致,隨意和尊重的缺失”,這樣正是通俗文化的特點(diǎn)。
【析句】 注意句子的表語(yǔ)是引號(hào)中的句子成分,表語(yǔ)實(shí)際是三個(gè)內(nèi)容:the democrat-izing uniformity,the casualness和absence of deference。形容詞短語(yǔ)(characteristic of popular culture)是表語(yǔ)的后置定語(yǔ)。對(duì)此句的理解在很大程度上取決于對(duì)單詞的理解。
【講詞】 democratize意為“民主化”,本句中意為“平民化”。
uniformity意為“相同,一致”。Since then,the nation has sought uniformity in education to expand opportunities to all students.(自那時(shí)起,國(guó)家就致力于向所有的學(xué)生提供相同的教育機(jī)會(huì)。)This procedure has produced gratifying results in achieving uniformity in recommendations and decisions.(這一程序統(tǒng)一了建議和決定,效果令人滿意。)
discourse表示書面和口頭的表達(dá),因此一般譯成“話語(yǔ)”,語(yǔ)言學(xué)的說(shuō)法是“語(yǔ)篇”。
casualness表示隨意的態(tài)度、舉止、穿著等。
deference意為“順從,尊重”。In deference to my friend and colleague Dr. B-rundtland,I won餿 show those slides at this symposium.(為了以示對(duì)我的朋友和同事布倫特蘭博士的尊重,我就不在這次研討會(huì)上播放那些幻燈片。)Out of deference to Grandma,the father neglected to tell her that he had become a Christian.(為對(duì)尊重奶奶,父親沒有告訴她自己已經(jīng)信了基督教。)
2. Rodriguez notes that children in remote villages around the world are f-ans of superstars like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks,yet “some Americans fear that immigrants living within the United States remain somehow immun-e to the nation餾 assimilative power.”
【譯文】 羅德里古茲指出,盡管世界邊遠(yuǎn)鄉(xiāng)村的孩子崇拜阿諾德·施瓦辛格和加斯·布魯克斯,然而“有些美國(guó)人卻擔(dān)心生活在美國(guó)的移民不知何故不受這個(gè)國(guó)家同化力量的影響!
【析句】 這是一個(gè)復(fù)合句,yet在句中起轉(zhuǎn)折作用。
【講詞】 note意為“注意,記錄,作筆記”,作動(dòng)詞表示口頭或書面表達(dá)他所注意到的事件或觀點(diǎn),因而有時(shí)可以譯成“指出,寫到,注意到,說(shuō)”等。He noted that many issues had been discussed at the conference.(他說(shuō)會(huì)上討論了許多議題。)
immune意為“免疫的;免除的';豁免的”。The criminal was told he would be im-mune from punishment if he helped the police.(罪犯被告知,如果他協(xié)助警方就可以免受懲罰。)Small businesses started by the unemployed urban dwellers are immun-e from taxes for a certain period of time.(城市失業(yè)人員經(jīng)營(yíng)小本生意在一定時(shí)間里可以享受免稅待遇。)The operation of the company will be immune to any outsid-e interference.(公司的運(yùn)營(yíng)不會(huì)受外界的干擾。)
3. Are there divisive issues and pockets of seething anger in America? Ind-eed. It is big enough to have a bit of everything. But particularly when view-ed against America餾 turbulent past,today餾 social indices hardly suggest a dark and deteriorating social environment.
【譯文】 美國(guó)是否存在分裂社會(huì)的問(wèn)題和極度憤怒的群體?確實(shí)存在。美國(guó)太大了,什么都會(huì)存在。但是,尤其是與美國(guó)動(dòng)蕩的過(guò)去相比,今天的社會(huì)指數(shù)根本就不說(shuō)明存在著黑暗和惡化的社會(huì)環(huán)境。
【析句】 此句的難點(diǎn)在于對(duì)一些詞語(yǔ)的理解。a bit of everything是一種口語(yǔ)化的表達(dá),意為“什么都有一點(diǎn)”。
【講詞】 divisive意為“區(qū)分的,分裂的”,divisive issues意為“分裂社會(huì)的問(wèn)題”。
pocket除了“口袋”之意,還可以表示“孤立的地區(qū),保護(hù)區(qū):被隔離的或被保護(hù)的小地區(qū)或集團(tuán)”,在句中應(yīng)該理解為“社會(huì)群體”。
seething意為“火熱的,沸騰的”,例如:a seething revolutionary struggle(火熱的革命斗爭(zhēng)),a seething flood(滾滾的洪水)。seething anger意為“極度的憤怒”。
to be viewed against意為“對(duì)著……觀察;與……相比;鑒于”。Viewed against his family background,he must have worked hard to become what he is today.(鑒于他的家庭背景,他一定非常努力才有了今日的成就。)
