【英语每日一练（51）】

This, for those as yet unaware of such a disadvantage, refers to discrimination against those whose surnames begin with a letter in the lower half of the alphabet.

【词汇突破】discrimination：歧视alphabet：字母表

【主干识别】This refers to discrimination against those加定语从句

【其他成分】for those as yet unaware of such a disadvantage：插入语，可改写为：for those who are unaware of such a disadvantage as yet理解起来会方便很多；as yet至今；whose surnames begin with a letter in the lower half of the alphabet定语从句。

【微观解析】若是对于句中的插入语理解起来有困难，不妨试着改变它的句式结构，将长定语还原为定语从句，而这种方法的逆向思维可以与写作相结合，使文章的句式更加灵活多变。【难点揭秘】较长插入语的出现会混淆视听，不容易把握主干。

【译文赏析】对于那些还不了解这种危害的人来说，它指的是对姓氏首字母位于字母表后半部分的人的歧视

【英语每日一练（52）】

From the beginning of our history, says Hofstadter, our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything that smells of elitism.

【词汇突破】democratic：民主的populist：平民主义的

【主干识别:】our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything+定语从句【其他成分】says Hofstadter插入语；our democratic and populist urges have driven us to…可提炼出sth has driven sb to do… 这个句型；that smells of elitism定语从句，修饰anything。（注意smell的介词搭配）

【微观解析】若是觉得插入语干扰了正常的理解，可将这个句子变为Hofstadter aid ,”From the beginning of our history, our d emocratic and populist urges havedriven us to reject anything that smells of elitism。”这样的由直接引语构成的宾语从句会降低句子的难度

【难点揭秘】灵活的利用插入语改变句式是这个句子给我们的启示。

【译文赏析】Hofstadter说，从我们的历史一开始，我们对于民主化和大众化的渴求就迫使我们拒绝一切带有精英主义色彩的东西

【英语每日一练（53）】

The true enemies of science, argues Paul Ehrllch of Stanford University, a pioneer of environmental studies, are those who question the evidence supporting global warming, the depletion of the ozone layer and other consequences of industrial growth.

【词汇突破】depletion：消耗（consume的同义替换词）ozone layer:臭氧层（碰到这种

专业词汇不要慌张，判断出它是一个名词即可）

【主干识别】the enemies are those 加定语从句

【其他成分】argues Paul Ehrllch of Stanford University插入语，相当于上一句中的says Hofstadter，of Stanford University做定语修饰Paul Ehrllch；a pioneer of environmental studies：插入语；who question the evidence supporting global warming, the depletion of the ozone layer and other consequences of industrial growth定语从句修饰those。

【微观解析】a pioneer of environmental studies插入语，改写为who is a pioneer of environmental studies就可以很快判断出它是修饰Paul Ehrllch的，而并非是句子的主语。定语从句中supporting global warming作evidence的定语（仍旧是修饰形式的变化）。【难点揭秘】在这个句子中，关于Paul Ehrllch的修饰成分作为插入语造成了主干隔离。句子的后半部分，定语从句中修饰evidence的定语以非谓语的形式出现。另外由于插入语的存在可能会导致判断主语的失误从而句意理解错误。

【译文赏析】环境研究的先驱、斯坦福大学的保罗?6?1厄尔里西认为，科学真正的敌人是那些对支持全球变暖、臭氧层损耗以及工业发展的其他后果的证据提出置疑的人。

【英语每日一练（54）】

主干识别：Galileo's greatest glory was that （主句主干）he was the first person to prove that （从句主干）the planets revolve around the sun (从句主干）

其他成分：to turn the newly invented telescope on the heavens to prove that （定语）（turn ...on... to prove(目的状语）...）rather than around the earth（我们很熟悉的rather than 做状语）

翻译点拨：中文到英文，如果表语较短的时候没有必要遵守英文中的主系表结构：他是第一个人，就直接翻译为：“他第一个将”就可以了。he is the one who invented the telephone. 可以翻译为：他发明了电话= 他是发明电话的那个人。

比较两种翻法： 1.哪一方被看做是驱动力的问题 2.那一方面被看做是驱动力第二种更加符合中文的表达。

政府究竟是以减少对技术的经费投入来增加对纯理论科学的经费投入，还是相反，这往往取决于把哪一方看作是驱动力量。

翻译点拨：词汇的处理：divert attention from... divert attention from... 原义是把注意力引开，反译为没有注意到；lies with在于illinformed or incompetent users 不甚了解或使用不当的使用者；初步可以翻译为：这个目标是错的，因为批评者在攻击测试的时候，没有注意到在于这个错误，这个错误在于不甚了解或使用不当的使用者。但是这个翻译明显不符合中文的表达习惯需要修改：主要是后半部分：将两个“这个错误”合并为：测试的错误在于... 将“illinformed or incompetent”翻译为动词：“不了解，不太会”那么主语就应该是原句中的“user”，缺一个对象那应该“tests”修改完成：

参考译文：这个目标是错的，因为抨击测试的时候，批评者没有注意到测试的弊病在于使用者不了解也不太会恰当使用测试。

初步翻译：they are essential to practices 自由和尊严对于实践活动是必须的。in which a person is held responsible for his conduct 在这种实践活动中一个人应该为他的行为负责（in which a person is ）given credit for his achievements. 在这种实践活动中一个人会因其业绩而给予肯定思考：如果能够把“实践活动”去了，会不会改变英语中的句子含义，因为“实践活动”在这里实在是冗长？直接说：他们对于后面两件事情是必须的试一下：一个人应该为他的行为负责一个人会因其业绩而给予肯定这对于（要求）一个人应该为他的行为负责并因其业绩而给予肯定而言，是必须的。结论：实践活动就是后面的两件事情在这里只起到语法作用，没有语义功能可以去掉。

练好英语口语的四种方法

练好英语口语的几大类方法 如果你学英语多年，却依然不善表达、不善面谈、不善辩论、不善沟通、不善谈判、不善推广自己、不善经营自己；如果你专业技能突出，兢兢业业，成绩突出，却因为英语口语不好而失去了无数升职加薪的机会；如果你正在为英语口语问题而烦恼，焦虑，不知道如何下手、想要寻求突破吗？ 一、口语的模仿 成功突破口语关键第一步：模仿。模仿的目的在于确保语音、语调的正确和提高表达的流利程度。模仿的时候，口齿要尽量清楚。在刚开始模仿时，速度不要过快，用慢速模仿，以便把音发到位，等到发音准确后，再加快速度，用正常语速反复多说几遍，直到不用想就能用正常语速把句子轻松地说出来。对于自己读不准或比较生疏的单词要反复多听几遍，然后再反复模仿，逐个单词地练习，在那些常用词上下功夫，尽量模仿得像一些。 二、复述 成功突破口语关键第二步：复述。学英语离不开记忆，记忆不是死记硬背，要有灵活性。复述就是一种很好的自我训练口语，记忆单词和句子的方法。复述有两种常见的方式。一是阅读后复述，二是听录音后复述。第二种方式更好些，这种方式既能练听力，又可以练口语表达能力。同时可以提高注意力的集中程度，提高听的效果，而且还可以提高记忆力，克服听完就忘的毛病。 复述的内容也要有所选择。一般来说，所选资料的内容要具体生动，有明确的情节，生词量不要太大。可选那些知识性强的小短文。开始时可以复述小故事，有了基础后，复述题材可以进行扩展。

复述要循序渐进，可以先从一两句开始，听完后用自己的话(英语)把所听到的内容说出来。在刚开始练习时，因语言表达能力、技巧等方面原因，往往复述接近于背诵，但经过训练后，就会由"死"到"活"。在保证语言正确的前提下，复述可有越来越大的灵活性，比如改变句子结构，删去一些不常用或太难的东西，长段可以缩短，甚至仅复述大意或者内容概要。 三、积累 成功突破口语关键第三步：累积。学习使用习语需要长期的积累。如果你能够自如使用习语必将大大增加你口语表达的生动性和地道程度。例如，下面几个使用了习语的句子就显得很地道而生动。 例1：I’ve never met John Franklin,but his name rings a bell.解析：句中的ring a bell跟“门铃响”毫无关系，它的意思是“听起来耳熟”，以后咱们也能酷酷地跟人说:“The name Oslo rings a bell,but I can’t remember where it is.” 例2：She arrived at the reception dressed to kill.解析：句中的dressed to kill可不是“被打扮得杀气腾腾”的意思，而是指“穿着极为时尚出众以吸引眼球”。积累到一定的词汇量了，形成一种英语的感，会随口而出，想说就说。 四、需要广泛的阅读 如果你要想让自己的口语内容具有广度和深度，那就必须进行广泛阅读，从阅读中吸收养分。通过阅读一些文学作品，英语学习者积累大量的习语。像莎士比亚的作品中的表达语，如“what’s done is done”(既往不咎)和“Truth will come to light”(真相将大白于天下)等等。

2019英语六级翻译每日一练及译文(1) 中国式礼仪 每种文化都有自己的行为准则，中国也不例外。在中国，跟别人 打招呼时，你或者点个头，或者微微鞠个躬。握手也很常见，但你要 等到中国朋友先伸手才能够。另外，与西方社会的做法截然相反，中 国人不太喜欢被陌生人触碰。所以不要轻易地触碰别人，除非你完全 有这样的必要。最后一点，根据儒家思想 (Confiicianism)的观点， 老人在任何情况下都应该受到年轻人的尊敬。你应该总是以老人为先，并对他们表本的敬意。 翻译：Every culture has its rules on how to act，and China is no different. In China,to greet someone, you nod your head，or you bow slightly. Handshakes are also common, but you should wait for your Chinese partner to initiate the motion. In addition，as opposed to those found in Western society，Chinese people do not enjoy being touched by strangers. Don’t touch someone unless you absolutely have to.Finally, from the perspective of Confucianism, the elders are to be respected in every situation by those who are younger. You should always acknowledge the elders first,and show the most respect to them. 讲解：1.行为准则：有多种译法，如rules on how to act, rules of conduct或standard of behavior。 2.中国也不例外：可译为China is no different或China is no exception。 3.打招呼：即greet。 4.截然相反：可译为as opposed to。

Because music is so important in the lives of many Africans and because so much music is performed in Africa, we are inclined to think that all Africans are musicians. The impression is strengthened when we look at ourselves and find that we have become largely a society of musical spectators（旁观）. Music is important to us, but most of us can be considered consumers rather than producers of music. We have records, television, concerts, and radio to fulfill many of our musical needs. In most situations where music is performed in our culture it is not difficult to distinguish the audience from the performers, but such is often not the case in Africa. Alban Ayipaga, a Kasena semiprofessional musician from northern Ghana, says that when his flute（长笛）and drum ensemble（歌舞团）is performing. “Anybody can take part”. This is true, but Kasena musicians recognize that not all people are equally capable of taking part in the music. Some can sing along with the drummers, but relatively few can drum and even fewer can play the flute along with the ensemble. It is fairly common in Africa for there to be an ensemble of expert musicians surrounded by others who join in by clapping, singing, or somehow adding to the totality of musical sound. Performing nucleus and the additional performers, active spectators, and passive spectators may be difficult to draw from our point of view. 46. The difference between us and Africans, as far as music is concerned, is that________ A) most of us are consumers while most of them are producers of music B) we are musical performers and they are semiprofessional musicians C) most of us are passive spectators while they are active spectators D) we are the audience and they are the additional perfrormers 47. The word “such”(Line 8) refers to the fact that________ A) music is perforated with the participation of the audience B) music is performed without the participation of the audience C) people tend to distinguish the audience from the performers D) people have records, television sets and radio to fulfill their musical needs 48. The author of the passage implies that____________ A) all Africans are musical and therefore much music is performed in Africa B) nor all Africans are born with musical talent although music is important in their lives C) most Africans are capable of joining in the by playing musical instruments D) most Africans perform as well as professional musicians 49. The word “nucleus”(Line 15) probably refers to ____________- A) musicians famous in Africa B) musicians at the center of attention C) musicians acting as the core in a performance D) active participants in a musical performance
