答案与解析:
1. enjoy the bus ride like me
享受......的乐趣直接用enjoy翻译即可。乘坐公交车在这里相当于一个名词短语,因此应翻译成bus ride而不是take the bus。如果将句子翻译成enjoy taking the bus,意思就与enjoy the bus ride稍有区别。前者强调动态,表示某个动作的进行,后者强调静态,表示某一经常性习惯性做法。
2. listening to music enables us to feel relaxed
听音乐在句中作主语,应该使用动名词短语作句子的主语。能使我们放松很多同学会采用 can make us feel relaxed的结构。其实,enable就有能够使某人的含义,注意enable sb. to do sth.的表达。
3. die of diseases linked to smoking
本句意为由最近调查显示,每年有400万人死于与吸烟有关的疾病。死于......既可以用短语die of也可以用die from,但考生应注意两者用法上的区别。与......相关可以选用related to,associated with,linked to。
4. fake and inferior commodities
假冒伪劣商品包含两层含义:一是假货,二是次品,在翻译成英文的时候应该注意两层含义的正确译法。假冒不能用false而应选择fake,次品可以说inferior表示质量差,也可以用commodity of low quality。
5. that education is not complete with graduation
随着......而结束/终结要用be complete/ end with sth.,采用的是词性转换法。将句中的动词结束转换成英语里的形容词complete。当然,如果译成动词end也是可以的,即:that education can not end with graduation。另外,本句需填入的是一个从句,因此不能遗漏that。
