介绍:
(摘自2007年真题阅读理解) In other words, whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize, those differences are swamped by how well each person "encodes" the information. 劈树:本句中共包含三个谓语成份:“may exhibit”,“are swamped” ,“encodes”,以这三个谓语成份为中心可以将原句切分为三个小分句。 第一分句为:In other words, whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize; 第二分句为:those differences are swamped; 第三分句为:by how well each person "encodes" the information; 造竹:第一分句是“whatever”引导的让步状语从句,第二分句为主句,第三分句为“by”引导的方式状语从句。 难词(词组)及在句中的含义: inborn (天生的) exhibit(展示,展现) swamp(淹没) encode(编码) 分句详解 第一分句:In other words, whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize; “In other words”的含义为“换句话说”; “whatever”的含义为“无论怎样,不管什么”; “inborn”的含义为“天生的”; “inborn differences”在从句中作“may exhibit”的宾语,“whatever”的出现导致从句中宾语发生了倒装,置于主语同谓语之前; “exhibit”是谓语,含义为“展示,展现”; “their abilities to memorize”中“ to memorize”为不定式作后置定语修饰“abilities”; “in their abilities to memorize”为介词短语,在句中作状语,翻译时置于主语同谓语之间即可; “their abilities to memorize”的含义为“他们记忆的能力”; 第一分句翻译为:换句话说,无论两个人在天生的记忆能力方面展现出来怎样的不同(差距); 第二分句:those differences are swamped; “swamp”的含义为“湿地(n.);淹没(v.)”,“are swamped”很明显是动词被动,取“被淹没”的含义; 所以“those differences are swamped”字面含义为“这些天生的不同被淹没”,意译为“这些天生的差异被掩盖了”; 第二分句翻译为:这些天生的差异被掩盖了; 第三分句:by how well each person "encodes" the information; “encodes”的含义为“编码”; “how well each person ‘encodes’ the information”直译为“每一个人如何成功地“编码”信息”,意译为“个人对于信息“编码”能力的好坏(区别)” 第三分句翻译为:由于每一个人如何成功地“编码”信息;或:由于个人对于信息“编码”能力的好坏(区别); 原文回顾 In other words, whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize, those differences are swamped by how well each person "encodes" the information. 全句翻译为:换句话说,无论两个人在天生的记忆能力方面展现出来怎样的不同(差距),这些天生的不同(差异)由于个人对于信息“编码”能力的好坏(区别)而被掩盖了。 句式结构考点:让步状语从句,方式状语从句; 难度级别: 智慧点滴 Energy is the essence of life. Every day you decide how you're going to use it by knowing what you want and what it takes to reach that goal, and by maintaining focus. 精力是生命的精髓。每一天都要明白你想要什么以及达到目标需付出什么,并且集中精力,由此决定你将如何使用你的精力。 明日预告 It's not obvious how the capacity to visualize objects and to figure out numerical patterns suits one to answer questions that have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers.
