154. Women's education may be unusual territory for economists, but enhancing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue.
譯文
對于經(jīng)濟學(xué)家而言，婦女的教育問題可能并不是個熟悉的領(lǐng)域，但實際上，加強婦女對于社會發(fā)展的貢獻(xiàn)既是經(jīng)濟學(xué)問題，也是社會問題。
點睛
本句為復(fù)合句，由but連接兩個具有轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的簡單句women's education may be unusual territory for economists和enhancing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue。
enhance意為“提高”。如：
He made many efforts to enhance his reputation. 他作了許多努力來提高自己的聲譽。
contribution意為“貢獻(xiàn)”。如：
He minimized the value of her contribution to his research so that he got all the praise. 他極力貶低她在他研究中作出的貢獻(xiàn)，以獨攬全部獎勵。
考點歸納
unusual，uncommon，rare都可以譯為“不平常的”，三者的區(qū)別在于：
unusual意為“不平常的；異常的”，強調(diào)與正常的狀態(tài)不同。如：
Snow is an unusual sight in this warm place. 在這個暖和的地方下雪是一種罕見的景象。
uncommon意為“不凡的；罕有的”，強調(diào)事件發(fā)生的頻率低。如：
It is not uncommon for parents to put a newborn in a separate room. 父母把新生兒放在單獨的房間里的情況并不罕見。
rare意為“罕見的；珍貴的”，可以強調(diào)事件發(fā)生的頻率低，也常與animal等連用，表示“珍稀的（動物）”。如：
A collector of rare insects will show us some of his latest discoveries. 一位稀有昆蟲收藏家將給我們展示一些他的最新發(fā)現(xiàn)。
