2009年6月真题
82. With the oil prices ever rising, she tried to talk ______________(说服他不买车)。
解析:做四六级翻译题的实质是补全句子,所以已给英文题干和中文部分都要仔细分析。说服某人,考生第一反应是persuade sb. into doing sth.,但是题干已给动词talk,所以考察点是talk sb. into doing sth.,考生如果对这个词组不熟悉,可以大胆套用persuade 这个词组的格式。
参考答案:him into stopping buying a car.
83. ________________(保持幽默感有助于)reduce stress and promote creative thinking in today's competitive society.
解析:考点有两个,“幽默感”和“有助于”。某方面的“感”,如正义感,责任感,在英语中都用“sense”来表达,即sense of justice, sense of responsibility.“有助于”可用两种
表达方式,be helpful to do sth., 或者help to do sth. 另外注意动词短语做主语,要转化为动名词形式,即keep表达为keeping.
参考答案:Keeping a sense of humor helps to

参考答案:someone must be talking about them behind their back.
86. She has decided to go on a diet, but finds
___________________(很难抵制冰淇淋的诱惑) .

no sooner等, 置于句首时主谓结构要用倒装语序,如:No sooner had they got in the wheat than it began to rain heavily. 又在since+时间点的句型中,主句要使用完成时。

【解析】此句的考点是主谓一致。"很大程度上"可译作largely, mainly 或to a
large/great extent,"有赖于"是"depend/rest on/upon",这一词组在2007年12月的翻译中也出现过。
