大学英语四级翻译必备的经典句型(5)

发布时间:2016-03-02  编辑:查字典英语网小编

  第一步:经典句型展示

  1. She can speak seven foreign languages to say nothing of her English. 她能讲七种外国语言,更不用说英语了。

  【分析】①say nothing of是用来表示更不用说是的意思。②not to speak of与no to mention也是用来表示相同的意思。③not to say则表示即使不能说的意思。

  2. To tell the truth, I dont like her at all. 说实在话,我一点也不喜欢她。

  【分析】① to tell the truth= to say the truth,是用来表示说实在话、说老实话的意思,它是一个独立主格结构,用来修饰整个句子。② to be frank with you(坦白地说),to make a long story short(简单地说),to do one justice(公平的说),与to tell the truth是个相类似的句型。

  3. When I was a boy, I was too cowardly to go out at might. 当我还是个小孩时,我太胆小以致夜晚不敢出门。

  【分析】① tooto= sothatcannot,表示太以致无法的意思;② toofor+意义上的主语+to的句型也表示相同的意思。

  4. This mountain is twice as large as that one. 这座山大约是那座山的两倍高。

  【分析】① twice as large as 是表示两倍的大小的意思。当twice改为three times four times时,则表示三倍、四倍的意思,此外as+adj.+as结构还可用as+adv.+as表达;②as+adj.+n.+as也可以表示同样的意思。
