1.
Twain moved to Hartford in 1871 to be near his publisher, and lived
here for
most of the next 25 years, during
which he wrote Huck Finn.
看作
Twain moved to Hartford in 1871 to be near his publisher, and lived
here for most of the next 25 years. During the 25 years he lived there,
he wrote Huck Finn.
2. 你有查英英字典吗? (网路上随便查都有喔)
http://www.idiomdictionary.com/definition/in-the-black.html
亏损是赤字嘛, 盈余就是黑字.
in the black = in profit
back in the black 就是本来是亏现在有赚罗
3. 这样看
William realized that
{(living on a budget while he set up his own
business) was a tradeoff [he had to make (to obtain financial freedom)]}.
还是不懂的话, 先看
It was a tradeoff [he had to make (to obtain financial freedom)]
-> He had to make a tradeoff (in order) to obtain financial freedom
and what exactly was the tradeoff?
(living on a budget while he set up his own business) = the tradeoff
William realized that...
what did he realize? the thing in this bracket
{......}
※ 引述《Ertkkpoo (water)》之铭言:
: 大家好
: 初次在英文版发文,我已经看过版规了
: 自己本身程度没有很好,可能问一些很基本的东西,请大家见谅
: 想询问关於advanced 2010/9月 的一些问题(我都在看过期杂志)
: 1. 在p17右半边
: Twain moved to Hartford in 1871 to be near his publisher, and lived
: here for most of the next 25 years, during which he wrote Huck Finn
: ^^^^^^^^^^^^
: ...後面就是一些着作名称
: 我不太懂这里的during which是运用了什麽文法?
: 如果是 the house which he lived in...
: 这里的in 可以提到which(关系代名词)前面,不知道这里的during
: 是不是也是这样呢?
: 2. 在p18页右半边
: Writers, among others, have helped put the museum's budget back
: in the black, a remainder of Twain's misadvantages as a bussinessman.
: 我的疑惑是back in the black 是指什麽意思呢?查过字典没查到
: 课文的翻译是写让博物馆转亏为盈,但从字面上来看不太能够理解其真正意思?
: 3. 单字表例句
: William realized that living on a budget while he set up his own
: business was a tradeoff he had to make to obtain financial freedom.
: 感觉上每个单字都看得懂,但是不知为何我念起来总觉得好像不太顺?
: 我也不懂这句话的是意思是什麽?
: 4. P21 有出现一个词是tipping point,翻译是翻成转折点
: 但是转折点或转捩点不都通常说成turning point?
: 查google居然翻成引爆点?
: 谢谢大家的帮忙

1F:推 tengharold:另外关於tipping point,您放个杯子在桌上,把它往桌边 01/29 06:30
2F:→ tengharold:推呀推,杯子在边缘要翻未翻,那就是tipping point 01/29 06:33
3F:→ tengharold:所以tipping point一般都是说下面会更坏,如股价已达 01/29 06:33
4F:→ tengharold:高点,XX公报为tipping point,往後股价只会下滑云云 01/29 06:34
5F:→ tengharold:turning point为中性名词,未来可以转佳或转劣 01/29 06:36
6F:→ tengharold:而tipping point之後只有往下 01/29 06:37
7F:→ tengharold:翻转折点不算错,翻引爆点可能是因为後续发展非常糟 01/29 06:37
8F:推 Ertkkpoo:感谢大家的帮忙,但我目前还是习惯查英汉辞典 01/29 15:52
9F:→ alixia:所以你看懂了吗? (查英汉字典还是不懂时就可以查英英啊...) 01/29 16:35
10F:推 Ertkkpoo:了解了,谢谢您 01/29 23:18
