Charity groups organized various activities to raise money for the survivors of the earthquake. (为地震幸存者筹款) raise money “筹款”survivor 幸存者 88. Linda couldn’t have received my e-mail (不可能收到我的电子邮件), otherwise, she could have replied. could have +过去分词。 混合型虚拟语气。otherwise提示我们句子后半句是与过去事实相反（事实是Linda没有回复），因此用could+have+过去分词。句子前半句是在陈述一种事实，从句子后半句could have +过去分词我们可以推断前面“没有收到我的电子邮件”也是在发生在过去，且对现在产生了影响（还没有收到回信），因此这里用现在完成时， 89. It’s my mother who/that keeps encouraging me not to lose heart (一直鼓励我不要灰心) when I have difficulties in my study. 强调句型it’s … that/who… encourage sb. (not) to do sth. 鼓励某人（不）做某事90.

The university authorities did not approve the regulation, nor did they make any explanation / nor did they give the reason for doing so (也没有解释为什么). nor的倒装句用法，后半句表示“也不”的否定意义，注意助动词的时态与上半句保持一致；对某事做出解释的表达，考察了汉译英中动词转名词的技巧，explain → explanation，或者nor did they give the reason for doing so同样可以。 88. Jane is tired of dealing with customer complaints and wishes that she could be assigned (to) another job（能被分配做另一项工作） wish从句的虚拟语气用法（can→could）“分配某人做某事”的词组搭配，assign sb. to sth. 或者assign sb. sth. 89.
