一、譯成表示讓步的分句，如雖然…但是…，盡管…等。
Although humans are the most intelligent creature on earth，anything humans can do, Nature has already done better and in far, far less space.
分析：although引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語從句譯成雖然…但…。
參考譯文：雖然人類是地球上最聰明的生物，人能創(chuàng)造一切，但大自然更富于創(chuàng)造性，早已創(chuàng)造出比人類創(chuàng)造的更好更小巧的東西。
二、譯成條件句
由no matter引導(dǎo)的從句可以譯為以不論，不管，無論等做關(guān)聯(lián)詞的條件分句。例如：
No matter how carefully you move your hand toward a fly, the insect will dart off almost every time.
參考譯文：不管你多么小心翼翼地把手伸向一只蒼蠅，差不多每次它都飛走。
