[团购]任汝芬考研政治:2009年序列之一要点精编
2、If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and it'll be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairman's notorious bad taste in ties.
【译文】如果你是你谈话对象集体中的一员,你就能够了解你们所共有的经历和问题,你就可对餐厅极难吃的食物或者总裁在选择领带方面差劲的品味进行评头论足。
【析句】if引导了一个条件从句,而后面的主句是两个子句构成的并列句。在第一个子句you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you中又有一个定语从句which are common to all of you来修饰the experiences and problems,而后面的子句的结构是一个it is adj. for sb. to do sth.的结构。
△要看懂本句,重点在于要把后面的两个子句断开,并分别理解。
3、Include a few casual and apparently off-the-cuff remarks which you can deliver in a relaxed and unforced manner.
【译文】包括一些很随便的、看上去是即兴的话,你可以用轻松的、不做作的方式把它们说出来。
【析句】该句是一个祈使句。谓语是include,宾语是remarks,后面有一个定语从句修饰它。
△注意该句的特性。另外注意off-the-cuff的意思。
4、Often it's the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so speak slowly and remember that a raised eyebrow or an unbelieving look may help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark.
【译文】常常是你说话的方式使听众发笑,因此说慢一些,并且记住扬扬眉毛或者做出一种不相信的表情都会向人们显示你正在说笑话。
【析句】整句可以看成是由so连接的并列句,前后有一定的因果关系。前面的子句是一个强调结构,而后面又是一个祈使句,其谓语动词是speak和remember。而remember后面又是一个很长的宾语从句。
△要理解前后的因果关系。
2002 Text 21、Since the dawn of human ingenuity, people have devised ever more cunning tools to cope with work that is dangerous, boring, burdensome, or just plain nasty.
【译文】从人类最初有了智慧至今,人们一直在设计日益巧妙的工具来处理那些危险的、枯燥的、繁重的或者只是一般肮脏的工作。
【析句】该句是一个复杂单句,前面是since引导的一个时间状语,这个地方的dawn取其比喻的意思,表示早期。后面主句中有一个定语从句that is dangerous, boring, burdensome, or just plain nasty用来修饰work。
△本句结构比较简明,但是有一些词的意思比较难:ingenuity创造性,灵活性;nasty讨厌的。
