历年考研真题长难句解析荟萃(17)

来源:泸江考研 时间:2011-12-21 09:18:30

1. If the small hot spots look as expected, that will be a triumph for yet another scientific idea, a refinement of the Big Bang called the inflationary universe theory.

【译文】假如那些小热点看上去同预计的一致,那就意味着又一科学理论获得了胜利,这种理论完善了大爆炸论,亦称宇宙膨胀说。 

【析句】本句是一个主从复合句,从句是if引导的条件从句,主句是that will be a triumph for yet another scientific idea,a refinement of the Big Bang called the inflationary universe theory是another scientific idea的同位语,其中过去分词短语(called the inflationary universe theory)是a refinement of the Big Bang的后置定语。

【讲词】refinement意为“提炼,精致,文雅”。A refinement of the Big Bang意思是the refined Big Bang theory,说明这种学说或理论完善了大爆炸论。此外,the inflationary universe theory应翻译成“宇宙膨胀理论”或“宇宙膨胀说”。

inflationary意为“膨胀的”,其动词形式是inflate。He was inflated with his success in the exams.(他因在考试中取得好成绩而洋洋自得。)对应名词inflation可以表示“通货膨胀”。Inflation erodes the purchasing power of the families with lower income.(通货膨胀使低收入家庭的购买力不断下降。)

2. Odd though it sounds, cosmic inflation is a scientifically plausible consequence of some respected ideas in elementary particle physics, and many astrophysicists have been convinced for the better part of a decade that it is true.

【译文】 宇宙膨胀说虽然听似奇特,但它是基本粒子物理学中一些公认的理论在科学上看来可信的推论。许多天体物理学家七、八年来一直认为这一论说是正确的。

【析句】 本句是一个主从复合句,Odd though it sounds是个倒装的条件句,其正常的语序应该是Though it sounds odd。主句是由连词and 连接的两个并列分句。应注意代词it指代cosmic inflation。另外,for the better part of a decade的意思是for more than half of a decade,故翻译成“七八年”。

【讲词】 plausible意为“似是而非的”,即听上去奇特,但是却是有道理的。a plausible excuse(看似有理的借口)。I think that is a plausible conclusion based on what we now know.(我认为根据我们所了解的情况,这个结论其实并没有什么道理可言。)
