2012年公共英語考試三級寫作技巧輔導(10)
翻譯為：他其實是一個工具推銷者，賣鉆頭給開采石油的公司。
9、I never think that I 'm doing eight-minute cures on television. But I think that 50 percent of the solution to any problem lies in defining it first. I can be an emotional compass that points them down the path.
這個句子中重點解析的是"cures"與"lies in"的意思，另外 "point……down"是詞組嗎?
翻譯為：我從未想過我在用電視做一個8分鐘的治療。但是我認為任何問題50%的解決方法在于先界定它。我可能是沿著路徑指向它們的情感羅盤(指南針)。
cure：名詞，治療。point和后面的down可以認為沒有關系，這里不是詞組，down這里的意思是"沿著"，相當于along.down the path是介賓結構詞組，在句中作points them的補充狀語。
建議：不要從語法分析著手來學習英語，因為這樣效果很差。最好是提高閱讀量，讓一切語法變為理所當然的事情，讓記憶單詞成為閱讀時的副產品。
1、 She soon called my attention to the fact that she couldn't work full time and keep house, too.
注意的詞語：call attention to(喚起注意)、keep house(當家)
2、 I guess I just took it for granted that a wife was supposed to take care of her kids and husband.
注意的詞語：take it for granted：(視為當然)、be supposed to：(應該、被期望)
3、 You've got to get to know them.
注意的詞語：have got to do：(必須做……)、get to：(在這里作"開始"的意思)
4、 But maybe I'd better take that back and give her a hand.
注意的詞語：take bake：(在這里作"取消"的意思)、give Sb. A hand(抽出空或騰出手幫助某人)
