例19 There was nothing we could do ________________ (比等待更好的了)． [解析]此题考查的是比较句的用法。句子上半句nothing为下文提供了足够信息。应该用better than的表达法。此题的正确翻译为 Better than waiting 例20 ______________(为了安全起见)，you must keep all the medicines away from children． [解析]在翻译“为了……起见”时，for the sake of…／for sth’s sake是·最常用的表达。此处“安全”要用名词，故正确译法为 For the sake of safety或 For safety’s sake。 例21 When______________ (在谈及工艺品的发展前景时) ，Managing Director Yu confidently predicted that they will have a fruitful development in the long run． [解析]“谈及”不可译为discuss或mention，discuss表示“专门的讨论”；mention指的是“顺带提及”的意思，而译为speak of比较合适，故正确翻译为 speaking of /talking about the future prospects for growth/development of arts and crafts 例22 We must ____________ (广泛地利用)the achievements of modern science and technology． [解析]本题考查“利用”这一词组的表达。 “利用”可以表达为 take advantage of／make use of／utilize。 “利用现代科技成果”应该用make use of或utilize，不用take advantage of，因为take advantage of多指利用他人，一‘占……的便宜”。 “广泛地”这一词组可以用extensively或on a wide scale。 正确答案为utilize／make use of on a wide scale或extensively utilize／make use of 或者最简单的：widely use 例23 He _______________ (被公认为) the world’s greatest statesman． [解析]:“被认为”可用be recognized／acknowledged／regarded as， 此处“公”可以用universally或generally来表达， 正确的翻译为is universally／generally recognized／regarded／acknowledged as。 例24 Scholars maintain that social development can easily______________ (引起语言上的变化)． [解析]“引起”可译为固定短语bring about，cause，lead to或trigger，而此题意思是“社会发展可很容易带来语言上的变化”，cause表示“引起麻烦、火灾等不好的东西”；trigger表示“引发”。 所以本题的正确翻译为bring about changes in language或add to changes in language。 例25 As they can’t afford to let the situation get worse，they will______________ (采取必要措施避免损失)． [解析]表达“采取措施”的固定动词短语为take steps／take some measures；“避免损失”的翻译为avoid losses，作为目的，前面要加to， 故正确翻译为take necessary steps／measures to avoidlosses’。 例26 It isn’t ____________ (值得等她)， who is always unpunctual [解析]本题考查“值得做某事”的用法，表达为be worth doing sth，故此题的正确翻译为 worth waiting for her worthy of waiting for her worthy to wait for her worthwhile to wait for her 例27 I
