1. sy205: 例句中"这座桥将在今年底建成"译成The bridge will be completed by the end of this year.是否会被扣分?

老师回复: 你好！
“到年底”是一个将来的时间， 因此谓语部分应该使用将来时态， 而同时"到年底" 又暗示“从现在开始到年底的一段持续时间”(持续一段时间发生的动作往往对应完成时态) ， 而且该句谓语部分的结构含有完成的语义，类似的动词还有：finish, work out等, 因此该句应使用现在完成进行时态：
The bridge will have been completed by the end of this year.
你的句子时态不正确， 因此要扣掉一部分语法分。

3.chengjuan518: 第1讲问题(12)：王老师,这个如何翻译?Man:Canyoucomeoverfordinnertonight?Woman:I’muptomyearsinwork,soI’llhavetotakearaincheck.

老师回复: 你好！
can you come over for dinner tonight?/今晚你能过来和我一块儿吃晚饭吗？
I am up to my years in work/ up to one's neck/ears/eyes in sth./这个结构是习惯搭配，含义是“在。。方面非常忙”，所以对话中该句的含义是 “在工作上非常忙"或"工作上忙得一塌糊涂”
, so I'll have to take a rain check./take a rain check（on sth.）也是习惯搭配结构，这个结构通常在口语中使用，其含义是 “ 现在还不能立刻做出回答，需要想一想，然后再做出回答”， 所以这个结构可以翻译成“让我考虑一下再回复你”
对于一些短语的含义其实可以首先从其字面含义加以猜测，然后借助语境做出判断。

 

4. flyfox: 10. Archaeology is a science in which (A)archaeologists use commonly accepted (B)techniques to uncover (C)the remain of ancient history of man(D).
改错题,答案是MAN改成mans.
man前面已经有of了,人类历史也可以说history of man呀!为什么要改成mans,还是man's

老师回复: 你好!
10. Archaeology is a science in which (A)archaeologists use commonly accepted (B)techniques to uncover (C)the remain of ancient history of man(D).
正确答案是man's, 这道题考察所有格的形式.这里需要表达的是"人类的历史"

学员跟复： 1、
王老师,我改一下,你看对不对?顺便问一下,如果是短文改错,光在划线上写出错的地方来就行吧?
71,inspite of -in spite of
72,elect-to be elected
73,are-were
74,he should remain-to remain
75,interested-interesting
76,feel-feeling(应该是个形容词,用哪个呢?)
77,to try-trying
78,a large amount of-a large number of
79,who-whom
80,use-used

老师回复：你好！
你的答案呢？应该说这些问题都是应该掌握的基本考点，因为其中的错误还是比较明显的。建议在处理改错题的时候可以首先重点处理容易成为考点的划线项，而且可以先借助划线项所在的局部结构判断答案，这样能够节省时间。另外平行结构（如：working and playing should be balanced）在复习中也应该注意。
另外，也做了这部分题的同学的答案基本上都正确，只有76题有点问题：注意在动词（尤其是MAKE）+反身代词的结构后面跟的结构通常都是过去分词结构，表示“使自己。。”，所以该题应该FEEL 改为FELT
