英語(yǔ)六級(jí)攻克閱讀關(guān)鍵句262. But a look at the strange variations in t

262. But a look at the strange variations in tuition reveals that the choice about which college to attend doesn't come down merely to dollars and cents.

譯文　但這些變化迥異的學(xué)費(fèi)表明，選擇上哪所大學(xué)，歸根結(jié)底并不僅僅是錢的問(wèn)題。

點(diǎn)睛　本句的主干是a look...reveals that...。其中，that引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句that the choice...dollars and cents作reveal的賓語(yǔ)。介賓結(jié)構(gòu)about which college to attend作定語(yǔ)，修飾the choice。

dollars and cents本義指“美元和美分”，在此引申為“金錢；純經(jīng)濟(jì)”。短語(yǔ)come down to在句中意為“歸結(jié)起來(lái)，說(shuō)到底”，此外還有“屈尊做某事，淪落為”之意。如：

The jobless had come down to begging. 這個(gè)失業(yè)者已經(jīng)淪為乞丐。
