难句解析
1. I asked her how she had achieved success and she told me that being curious, working hard, and believing in what was true, made her the success she is today. (P26)
我问她是如何获得成功的,她告诉我是好奇心、努力工作和忠于事实的原则促成了她今日的成功。
这个句子是由“I asked her how she had achieved success”和“she told me that being curious, working hard, and believing in what was true, made her the success she is today”并列构成。
第二个句子里包含了一个由that引导的宾语从句,其中“being curious”, “working hard” 和“believing in what was true”是动词-ing短语并列作主语。
动词-ing短语作主语时谓语动词要用单数。
若是两个或两个以上的动词-ing短语作主语,表示两个或两个以上的概念或意义时,谓语动词用复数形式。
如:
Swimming in summer and skating in winter are his greatest pleasure.
夏天游泳,冬天滑冰是他最大的乐趣。
that引导的宾语从句中“she is today” 是定语从句,省略了关系代词that(作表语), 修饰先行词“the success”。
2. Today when I’m looking for stories, I still feel like I’m turning over stones to see what might be hiding beneath!(P26)
feel like是美国英语的用法,like在此代替as if或as though,意为“感觉宛如……, 觉得好像……”,后接从句。
如:
I feel like I am in a wonderland.
我觉得像是置身仙境了。
She felt like she was floating in the air.
她觉得她仿佛漂浮在空中。
[试一试] 翻译下列句子。
1. 现在我的体温很高,像是发烧了。
2. 那时,Jane突然出现在我面前。
我感觉自己像是在做梦。
Key:
1. My temperature is high now, and I feel like I get a fever.
2. At that moment, Jane turned up suddenly, and I felt like I was dreaming.。
