对于中国学生来说,很多人在各种各样的考试当中都被英语所难倒,很多同学在考研的时候也因英语分数低而导致考研失败。2017考研的同学们为了避免这种情况,一定要尽早开启2017考研英语的复习。基础阶段,同学们主要搞定词汇、长难句和语法等基础知识。文都考研小编每日给大家分享文都何凯文老师的句子,帮大家打好2017考研英语的基础。以下是第21句:
But his primary task is not to think about the moral code which governs his activity, any more than a businessman is expected to dedicate his energies to an exploration of rules of conduct in business.
词汇突破: 1.primary 首要的
2.moral code 道德原则/规范
3.Govern 管理,支配,统治
4.dedicate one’s energies to sth 致力于某事
5.exploration 探索,探究
句子解析:还是not…any more than 结构,双方否定的句型;还是把句子拆分:
A= But his primary task is not to think about the moral code which governs his activity.
B= a businessman is (not) expected to dedicate his energies to an exploration of rules of conduct in business.
参考译文:但是,他的首要任务并不是考虑支配自己行动的道德规范,就如同(我们)不能指望商人会致力于探索行业规范一样。
KK友情提示: Not…any more than, 从结构上我们已经掌握了,再从表意功能上看,我们其实可以知道,这个结构很多时候就是为了把两个表示否定的句子连接起来而已。第二个句子所表述的事实往往是被读者所熟悉的,和接受的,这样能更好的表达第一个句子的意思。
再提醒一下,这个结构中的not,可以不是not,可以是其他的否定词,no, few, hardly, never,nobody都可以;
同学们试着看看下面的句子:
Nobody with any sense expects to find the whole truth in job advertisement //any more than he expects a man applying for a job to describe his shortcomings and more serious faults.
这个句子同样是结构:not...any more than 的变体;这是在这里not 变成了nobody;
Nobody with any sense expects to find the whole truth in job advertisement
One with any sense (有头脑的人)
先翻前半句:
任何有头脑的人都不指望招聘广告里说的话都是真话,
any more than + 否定含义
同样他也不会指望求职者会说出自己的缺点和严重过失。
参考译文:任何有头脑的人都不指望招聘广告里说的话都是真话,同样他也不会指望求职者会说出自己的缺点和严重过失。
