6、其逻辑主语substance之间需采用被动连接,即heat加ed。优 化whether (it is) heated or not. 注意,it is可省略。点 评如果heated or not放在句首,whether也可以省略。,88. Not only _ (他向我收费过高), but he didnt do a good repair job either.关键词收费过高overcharge, charge too much/high连 接句首的Not only决定了倒装连接,下文用了过去时态,因此,这里需在he之前加did。优 化(Not only) did he charge me
7、too much/high, / did he overcharge me, 。点 评如果未能想出用overcharge/charge too much表示“收费过高”,也可以将其含义“化解”掉,用ask for too much来表达,答案可以是did he ask me for too much。,89.

9、思撇开,更易“化解”原文,即先译出“一天里在利兹和在伦敦花同样多的钱”,spend as much (money) in a day in Leeds as in London,然后将“(只有)一半”加进去,这样来看(only) half只能放在as much前。,91. By contrast, American mothers were more likely _ (把孩子的成功归因于) natural talent.关键词孩子的成功childrens success / success of the children;把归因于attribute to / owe to连 接上文的were
10、 more likely后需接to。优 化to attribute their childrens success / success of their children to。点 评“把归因于”也可以化解为“相信的原因是”,即believe that their childrens success is due to/ the main factor for their childrens success is。,汉译英专项练习,一、倍数增减的表示法 二、时态 三、被动语态 四、情态动词 五、虚拟语气 六、不定式 七、分词 八、动名词,九、非谓语动词用法区别,一、倍数增减的表示法 Force
