答案與解析:
1. not so much a scholar
本句意為:與其說他是個學(xué)者不如說是個作家。考查的是"與其......倒不如......"的句型。句中所給部分已有as,所以最好用not so much...as...。如:In many cases,nursing is not so much a job as a way of life.(在許多情況下,護理與其說是是一件工作倒不如說是一種生活方式。)
2. to make their own choices
考查目的狀語"以便"的英文表達,正確答案可以是:in order to/to/so as to+動詞,也可以用in order/so+that從句。具體要根據(jù)字數(shù)要求定。
3. make up their minds
本句意為:許多大一新生打定主意要在本科畢業(yè)后繼續(xù)爭取碩士學(xué)位。"打定主意、決定下來"可選用:make up one's mind to do,be determined to do,decide to do。題中pursue表示堅持不懈地追求,如:She pursued the study of English for five years.(她持續(xù)不斷地學(xué)了五年英語。)
4. to participate in social practice
本句意為:對學(xué)生而言,有必要深入社會實踐,從而學(xué)到課堂上學(xué)不到的東西。"深入"事實上是指學(xué)生要參與社會實踐,因此確切譯法是to participate,"社會實踐"可譯成social practice或social activity。
5. has implemented a series of reforms
本句意為:為了提高國有企業(yè)的競爭力,政府已經(jīng)實行了一系列改革,其中一項是裁員。這里大家要記住"國有企業(yè)"的表達,而"外資企業(yè)"應(yīng)譯為 oversea-funded enterprise或foreign-based company。"實行"可選用implement,carry out,由于是"一系列"改革,因此reform要用復(fù)數(shù)形式。另外"已經(jīng)"暗示句子應(yīng)該用完成時態(tài)。
