一.career：n.生涯, 職業(yè), 事業(yè) vi.猛沖, 飛跑

【語法用法】

career作名詞指“事業(yè)、一生的經(jīng)歷”，不是抽象名詞，所以有復數(shù)形式careers，如：their careers中careers用復數(shù)形式;

career man和careerist在美式英語中意思不同。careerman指“職業(yè)外交家”，就是非政界、教育界、企業(yè)界等出身，也可以說career diplomat。而careerist指“追名逐利的人”。

錯句舉例與錯句分析

錯句: His career spanned 24 years at the Conran Design Group, starting as a junior designer tobecoming the Creative Director of the company.

訂正: A career of 24 years at the Conran Design Group , he started as a junior designer andeventually became Creative Director.

翻譯: 他在康蘭設計集團工作了24年，從一個低級設計師最后升職到了創(chuàng)意總監(jiān)。

分析: career是作名詞指“事業(yè)、一生的經(jīng)歷”，主語應該改成“他”。
