字號:

下半年P(guān)ETS考試備考已經(jīng)拉開帷幕,為了幫助大家備考,從本期開始我們將為大家整理一系列公共英語三級考試PETS3級學(xué)習(xí)筆記,希望對大家備考有幫助。
    Dialogues /monologues:
    1、I would have thought they'd be very useful for children without brothers and sisters.
    would/should have +過去分詞,表示“應(yīng)該做某事”,而實際沒有。
    本句可以翻譯為:我應(yīng)該想到它們對獨生子女是很有用的。
    2、The reality is that people learn subjects such as languages and mathematics at different speeds.
    Speed:【俚語】在這里應(yīng)翻譯為: 嗜好,個性:適合某人的興趣、技能或性格的東西:
    E.G. Living in a large city is not my speed.
    住在大城市里不是我所喜歡的
    1、 My parents recognized that the best learning is learning-by-doing, and they facilitated a lot of interesting experiences for me, whether it was driving me across town, paying for courses and lessons, or just including me in their lives.
    我的父母認識到,的學(xué)習(xí)方法是邊干邊學(xué)。為此,他們讓我體會了許多有趣的經(jīng)歷:或者開車帶我在鎮(zhèn)里轉(zhuǎn)轉(zhuǎn),或者花錢讓我讓各種班,或者干脆將我直接納入他們的生活。
    本句解析:My parents recognized that the best learning is learning-by-doing, and they facilitated a lot of interesting experiences for me, (前半部分是具有遞進意義的兩個并列分句)whether it was driving me across town, paying for courses and lessons, or just including me in their lives. (后半部分是樣態(tài)狀語從句,其中由三個現(xiàn)在分詞短語作表語)。
    2、 interacting with a large group of people my own age was one of the joys I derived from school.
    Derive sth from sth.
    <1> 得到,獲得。如:
    She derived no benefit from the course of drugs. 用藥療程后她并無好轉(zhuǎn)。
    <2>對某事物窮本窮源。如:
    We can derive the word ‘derelict’ from the Latin ‘derelictus’
    derelict 一詞的起源可追溯到拉丁詞 derelictus。
    Passage:
    China’s education system
