题目内容
18.English and its historyAll through history,people from many different countries and cultures have lived together in Britain.(61)The English language is made up of the grammar and vocabulary these people brought to Britain.That is why English has so many difficult rules that confuse people.
(62)古英语 is very different from the English we speak nowadays.
(63)事实上,we would not be able to understand it if we heard it today.Before the middle of the 5th century,people in Britain all spoke a language called Celtic.Then two Germanic groups from the European mainland-the Angles and the Saxons-occupied Britain.Old English consisted of a mixture of their languages.(64) At the end of the 9th century,the Vikings,people from Northern European countries such as Denmark and Norway,began to move to Britain.They brought with them their languages,which also mixed with Old English.By the 10th century,Old English had become the official language of England.
(65) When we speak English today,we sometimes feel puzzled about which words or phrases to use.This is because English has many words and phrases from different languages,but with similar meanings.For example,the word sick came from a word once used by the Angles and the Saxons,while ill came from a word once used by the Norwegians.
61.英语是由语法和词汇构成的.
62.Old English
63.In fact
64.在九世纪末
65.今天当我们讲英语的时候.
分析 本文叙述的是英语的历史.
来自不同地域和文化的人来到英国,并且带来了他们的词汇和语法,这也是英语难懂的原因;古英语非常不同于我们现在的英语,在公元五世纪主要是凯尔特语,在九世纪末主要是由丹麦人和挪威人带来的语言,在公元十世纪,古英语成为官方语言.我们现在有时候会对一些单词和短语困惑,就是因为它们来自其他的语言,例如sick 来自于盎格鲁人和撒克逊人而ill是挪威人用的.
解答 61.英语是由语法和词汇构成的.汉译英题.本句由主谓宾构成,"The English language"是主语,译为:英语;"is made up of"是谓语,而"be made up of"是一个常见的词组,译为:由…组成,构成;"the grammar and vocabulary"作为宾语,译为:语法和词汇.由此可知,该句的意思是:英语是由语法和词汇构成的.
62.Old English.汉译英题."古英语"在句子中做主语,其中的"古"字可以理解为"旧的,老的",可用形容词old表示;其中"英语"是常见的名词词汇,为English,且第一个E字母必须大写.合在一起就是"old English",其位于句首,则"o"要大写.故该处填:Old English.
63.In fact.汉译英题.根据其位于句首(第一个字母要大写),且与后面的句子用逗号隔开,可知该成分在句中做介词状语.根据平时的积累,很容易写出正确答案.故该处填:In fact.
64.在九世纪末.英译汉题.根据"At the end of the 9th century"位于句首,且与后面的句子用逗号隔开,可知该成分在句中做时间状语.词组at the end of的意思是:在…结尾,在…末端.the 9th century的意思是:第九世纪.结合在一起就是:在九世纪末.故该处填:在九世纪末.
65.今天当我们讲英语的时候.英译汉题.这是一个时间状语从句,主句是we sometimes feel puzzled about which words or phrases to use,表示"今天当我们讲英语的时候,我们有时候会对一些单词和短语困惑".
