如果大家想進(jìn)入國(guó)外大學(xué),那么基本上都需要準(zhǔn)備語(yǔ)言成績(jī),下面是由小編為大家整理的“雅思精讀:《孤獨(dú)星球》關(guān)于拉脫維亞Gauja國(guó)家公園的的描述”,僅供參考,歡迎大家閱讀本文。
Dotted with sweet little towns and dramatic fortifications[筑城,堡壘], Latvias Gauja National Park entrances all who visit. The tower of Turaida Castle risesmajestically[莊嚴(yán),宏偉地] over the huddling pines, a glorious reminder of the fairy-tale kingdoms that once ruled the land. And after youve had your history lesson, its time to spice things up with a bevy of adrenaline-inducing sports, such as bungee jumping from a cable car[纜車] or careering down a frozen bobsled track[雪橇滑道].
dotted with dot作名詞時(shí)表示圓點(diǎn)一點(diǎn)兒,微量,而作動(dòng)詞時(shí)常用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)be dotted with 表示密布,綴有,比如我們形容夜空繁星點(diǎn)點(diǎn)時(shí)就可以說(shuō):
The night sky was dotted with stars.
The countryside is dotted with small villages. 也可以說(shuō)Small villages dot the countryside.
那么我們?cè)诿枋鲲L(fēng)景時(shí),比如形容春季的時(shí)候,大草原上綴有雛菊,顯得格外美:
The grassland is even more stunning when it is dotted with daisies in the springtime.
原文這里dotted with sweet little towns and dramatic fortifications 則是指Latvias Gauja 國(guó)家公園里散落著一些小鎮(zhèn)以及輝煌的堡壘。
另外在口語(yǔ)中有 on the dot習(xí)語(yǔ),表示準(zhǔn)時(shí)地,按指定時(shí)刻地,比如我們描述一個(gè)人很準(zhǔn)時(shí):
He always arrives on the dot.
entrance 作名詞時(shí),大家都很熟悉,指的是入口,通道,但很明顯,原文這里筆者用了entrance的動(dòng)詞形式;根據(jù)上下文語(yǔ)義,大家應(yīng)該不難猜出,entrance指的是吸引。更準(zhǔn)確的含義是使著迷,狂喜,也可以用于被動(dòng)sb. is entranced by /with sth.
We were completely entranced by the beautiful sight.
I was entranced by the sweetness of her voice.
huddling huddle原本是指聚集在一起,原文這里用了它的現(xiàn)在分詞形式作修飾,形容pines,指這個(gè)地方的松樹很多,即形容城堡在茂密的松樹林中赫然聳立。
spice things up spice作名詞時(shí)指香料,作動(dòng)詞可表示用香料給某物調(diào)味,但與此同時(shí)就有了增添趣味、新鮮感的含義,所以在口語(yǔ)中我們可以說(shuō):
We tried to spice things up by putting on some lively music.
Going on holidays add a bit of spice to their marriage.
Ethnic restaurants from all over the world add spice to Chinas cuisine scene.
a bevy of 這個(gè)詞組大家可能比較陌生;a bevy of指的是a large group of;即很多,一大群;比如:
Therere a bevy of beauties. 一群美女。
All of these places host a bevy of festivals, concert series, and street markets.
career 這個(gè)詞大家也不陌生了,作名詞時(shí)指職業(yè),生涯;除此之外它還有另外一個(gè)含義迅速的前進(jìn),猛沖,所以原文這里careering down其實(shí)用的是career的動(dòng)名詞形式,表示迅速前進(jìn),猛沖;careering down a frozen bobsled track即沿著冰凍的雪橇道沖下去/飛奔而去。
