新概念英語(yǔ)第四冊(cè)長(zhǎng)難句講解(14)

字號(hào):

【句型14】I am always amazed when I hear people saying that sport creates goodwill between the nations, and that if only the common peoples of the world could meet one another at football or cricket, they would have no inclination to meet on the battlefield.(Lesson 6)
    【譯文】當(dāng)人們說(shuō)體育可創(chuàng)造兩國(guó)的友誼,還說(shuō)各國(guó)民眾若在足球場(chǎng)或板球場(chǎng)上交鋒就不愿在戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)上殘殺的時(shí)候,我總是驚愕不已。
    【講解】句中作者介紹了別人的兩種觀點(diǎn),其一sport creates goodwill between the nations,其二if only the common peoples of the would could meet one another at football or cricket, they would have no inclination to meet on the battlefield。amazed意為“驚愕,驚詫(very surprised)”,此詞一出,作者的態(tài)度即非常明確:反對(duì)上述兩種觀點(diǎn)。該句型是寫(xiě)駁論文的必備句型,其功能有二:介紹別人的觀點(diǎn);表達(dá)作者的反對(duì)意見(jiàn)。
