3..______________(沒有一項發明獲得如此多的表揚和批評)than Internet.
答案: No invention has received more praise and abuse
解析:本題考點是關于“沒有……比……更……”的表達,前后比較的是物——“其他發明”與“因特網”。它的基本結構是:no + sth. …more than…。也可以用于人的比較,如:Of all the people I know, perhaps none deserves my respect more than Miss Chang, my English teacher.
4.An increasing number of people are beginning to realize ______________ (教育不能隨著畢業而結束).
答案: that education is not complete with graduation
解析:“隨著……而結束/終結”要用be complete/ end with sth.,采用的是詞性轉換法。將句中的動詞“結束”轉換成英語里的形容詞complete。當然,如果大家譯成動詞end也是可以的,即:that education cannot end with graduation。另外,本句需填入的是一個從句,因此不能遺漏that。
5.I replied to her that _______________ (我將會接受她的邀請).
答案: I would accept her invitation
解析:本題考點一是時態的一致。由于前半句時態是replied,因此“將要”應譯為would。本題考點二是“接受”的英文表達。accept和receive都有表示接受的意思。receive指客觀已經發生的情況。它只表明事實上收到某物而不管接受者主觀上是否愿意接受。如:My father received a letter this morning. 而accept帶有主動或贊許的意味,表示不但收下某物,而且內心也同意接受。如:Please accept my little present.下面這句話可以幫助大家分清兩個詞的使用域:He received an invitation yesterday but he did not accept it.(他昨天收到一份邀請,但卻沒有接受。)
