英語四級(jí)閱讀關(guān)鍵句：221. They are the place of the scien

221. They are the place of the scientific discoveries that move economies forward, and the primary means of educating the talent required to obtain and maintain competitive advantages.

譯文

大學(xué)是推動(dòng)經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的科學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn)的衍生地，是一個(gè)國(guó)家培養(yǎng)所需人才以獲取并維持競(jìng)爭(zhēng)優(yōu)勢(shì)的主要手段。

點(diǎn)睛

本句的主干是they are place and means。the place of...和the primary means of...為并列的表語；that引導(dǎo)的是discoveries的定語從句；動(dòng)詞過去分詞短語required to...是talent的后置定語。

move sth. forward的意思是“推動(dòng)……，使……前進(jìn)”。如：

We should try to strengthen the business and continue to move it forward. 我們應(yīng)該努力強(qiáng)化業(yè)務(wù)并繼續(xù)推動(dòng)其前進(jìn)。
