第262句:
But a look at the strange variations in tuition reveals that the choice about which college to rlrltend doesn't come down merely to dollars and cents.
但這些變化迥異的學費表明,選擇上哪所大學,歸根結底并不僅僅是錢的問題。
六級詞匯講解:
本句的主干是a look...reveals that...。其中,that引導的賓語從句that the choice...dollars and cents作reveal的賓語。介賓結構about which college to attend作定語,修飾the choice。
dollars and cents本義指“美元和美分”,在此引申為“金錢;純經濟”。短語come down to在句中意為“歸結起來,說到底”,此外還有“屈尊做某事,淪落為”之意。如:
The jobless had come down to begging.
這個失業者已經淪為乞丐。
