※ 引述《AnaPattinson (苹果派~安娜派)》之铭言： : Workers said they had received few instructions from emplyers to stay : at home. However, some are remaining away from work because of fears : ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ : they could contract the swine flu which, aside from human cost, is : ^^^^^^^^ : already costing industry millions of pounds. : 这是一小段撷自BBC的文章 : 想请教一下 关於划线部分的英文到底要怎麽翻呢? : away from是远离的意思没错吧? : 前面又加了remain 是指保留远离工作的态度?? : contract在这边是有导致(不好的结果)的意思吗? : 麻烦各位高手们帮我确认一下了~谢谢! 1st句是过去式,2nd句转入现在进行式粗略翻译如下: 雇员们表示接获一些公司要他们待在家里的指示 但有些人仍然远离工作是因为他们怕感染猪流感 该疫情已经造成企业界的巨大损失 1st句是过去式,2nd句转入现在进行式 are remaining 表达持续某依状态 contract有"得病"之意 ex. He contracted a cold. 以上~ 有问题可以续论,thanks~ -- --
