345. The official dismissed my objection, saying that there was no way Germany was going to offer these people citizenship.
那個官員對我的異議不屑一顧,并且說德國絕對不會給予這些人合法的公民身份。
六級詞匯講解:
本句的主干是The official dismissed...objection,后面saying引導的現在分詞復合結構作伴隨狀語。dismiss原意為“解散,解雇,開除”。如:The class dismissed.(下課啦。)本句中意為“駁回,不予受理”。objection在句中意為“反對,異議”。如:make an objection to(對……表示反對)。
英語六級考點歸納:
no way意為“不行,絕不可能”,帶有比較決絕的口吻。與此短語近義的還有:by no means(of)、in no way、under no circumstances、no case等。大多數情況下這些短語要放在句首,而且句子需要倒裝,將助動詞提前。如:
By no means will I trust him ever again.
我再也不相信他了。
In no way can theory be separated from practice.
理論決不能脫離實踐。
Under no circumstances will he succeed with such an affltude.
以他的這種態(tài)度是絕不可能成功的。
In no case should the shipping marks be mixed up.
發(fā)貨標記絕不能弄混。
