英語(yǔ)四級(jí)譯文:
在拼命修改方程式之余，愛(ài)因斯坦還抽時(shí)間與他的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手希爾伯特一起參與跳一種難看的西班牙舞蹈--方丹戈雙人舞。

四級(jí)詞匯講解:
本句的主干是Einstein took time off。句中的to engage in an awkward fandango是不定式短語(yǔ)，作目的狀語(yǔ)，其中，take time off是“抽出一部分時(shí)間”的意思;take time off from doing sth.是“從做某事中抽出時(shí)間”的意思。如:

The teacher encourages us to take time off from studying hard to exercise ourselves.老師鼓勵(lì)我們?cè)谂W(xué)習(xí)之余抽時(shí)間鍛煉身體。

engage in sth.是“參加某事或忙于做某事”的意思。如:
I have no time to engage in such a boring activity.我無(wú)暇參加這樣無(wú)聊的活動(dòng)。

awkward的意思是“尷尬的;難看的”。如:
Her words put me in a very awkward position.她的話(huà)使我陷入極其尷尬的境地。
