   In the United States, many people use cell phones. But few send messages with them. Most of them don’t even like to try it. Do you find it strange?

   Computers are very common in America. 1. Most people like using e-mails more than messages.  Sending e-mails is faster than sending messages .They don’t need to choose the letters one by one . It can save more time . And they like talking on the phone. They don’t feel good when “talking ”by sending messages to each other.

   Another reason is to save money. Americans are excited about new cell phones .But they think a lot before they buy. So many people’s cell phones are still very old . They can’t send messages.

   2.In the U.S. ,people call for free from 7(or9)o’clock in the evening. But if they send messages ,they still have to pay. A message costs about 10 cents . It is too much.

   3.It is also bad manners to greet by sending messages in American. Americans are happier to get cards from their families or friends.

 

【答案】

 

1.绝大多数人喜欢使用电子邮件而不发短信。

2.在美国,人们在晚上7点到9点打电话是免费的。

3.在美国,通过发送信息打招呼是坏的举止。

【解析】

试题分析:本文讲述了美国人使用手机的情况。手机在美国很流行,但人们使用手机短信的情况却少之又少而人们热衷的是发送电子邮件,原因在于一是发送短信慢、浪费时间因此不愿通过短信聊天;二是发送电子邮件省钱,也比发短信更有礼貌。

1.more than意为“而不是”,在翻译成汉语时需在messages前加上省略的sending,即发送短信;故本题答案为绝大多数人喜欢使用电子邮件而不发短信。

2..for free是介词短语做状语,修饰动词call的,from 7(or9)o’clock in the evening也为介词短语做时间状语,故答案为在美国,人们在晚上7点到9点打电话是免费的。

3.本句中it为形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式to greet by sending messages in American,故答案为在美国,通过发送信息打招呼是坏的举止。

考点:英译汉。
