2015英语六级翻译指导及练习(32)

　　Exercise Thirty-two

　　1. ______________，you are not entitled to a repayment for the goods damaged in delivery.

　　2. ______________when Dr. Mark became its first president.

　　3. Mrs. Smith shut the window lest ______________.

　　4. The new mayor was charged ______________.

　　5. _____________，and I can hardly remember my own date of birth.

　　1. Unless you sign a contract with the insurance company for your goods

　　解析：本题考查对连词unless用法的掌握。unless表示除非......否则，相当于if...not，常用于引导条件状语从句。

　　2. It is reported that the local health organization was established 25 years ago/The local health organization is reported to have been established 25 years ago

　　解析：本题考查形式主语it及被动语态的用法。It is reported that...意为据报道......，it为形式主语，后面的that从句为句子的真正主语，表示卫生组织成立应该用被动语态。另外，本句也可以直接用报道的对象the local health organization充当主语，原来从句中的谓语动词转换成相应的不定式的完成式。

　　3. the noise outside interfere with her sons sleep

　　解析：本题考查对虚拟语气和短语interfere with的掌握。连词lest，for fear that和in case引起的从句中谓语动词常使用虚拟语气，其形式为should+动词原形，should可省略。interfere with意为打扰妨碍。

　　4. with failure to fulfill his promise to decrease the inflation rate

　　解析：本题考查charge的搭配以及其他一些短语的用法。Charge sb. with sth.意为以某事指控或控告某人，另外accuse...也表示指控或控告，注意不同的介词搭配。Failure to do sth.常用于表示未能做成某事，本句中是跟在介词with后面，所以用名词failure。

　　5. When confronted with such questions，my mind goes blank

　　解析：本题考查对短语be confronted with及单词blank的掌握。Be confronted with sb./sth.表示面对、面临某人或某事，go blank常用于表示变得空白、呆滞。
