今天的翻譯題是:
1. Many countries with long history in the world are now________(落后于西方發(fā)達國家).
2. The manager ensured us that is won't be long___________(我們就能加薪).
答案解析:
1.答案: falling behind the western developed nations/countries
詳解:
考查固定短語: “落后”的表達為fall behind,句中now提示需用進行時falling behind。
查核心詞匯: 發(fā)達的developed,發(fā)達國家 developed nations/countries.
2. 答案: before we get pay rise//before he raises our salary/pay
詳解:
考查before引導的時間狀語從句: it won't be long 表示"不久..."。
考查名詞短語: "加薪" 可表示為pay rise, 詞句中如果以"我們"作主語,就用get pay rise;
如果以the manager 做主語,用before he raises our salary/pay.
