Answer 1

分析 小轿车开得飞快，差点撞到正在过马路的人．

解答 答案：So fast was the car running that it narrowly missed hitting down an old man crossing the road．考查so…that结构．句子里So fast 位于句首，主句was the car running 用部分倒装；that引导结果状语从句；narrowly missed 表示"差一点就…"；crossing the road做定语，修饰名词an old man．

点评 考查汉译英．
1）当"so/such…that…"结构中的so，such连同它所直接修饰的成分共同位于句首表示强调时，主句要进行倒装（that后面的结果状语从句不倒装）．
例如：So angry was he that he couldn't speak．他愤怒得一句话也说不出来．
2）so与作表语的形容词放于句首，主句呈现部分倒装的形式）
如：So fast does he run that he is far ahead of others．
他跑得如此快，以至于远远领先于其他人．
3）so与修饰谓语run的副词fast放于句首，主句呈现部分倒装的形式
如：To such an extent do the parents love their son that they have tried to satisfy every demand of his．父母俩爱子爱到了如此程度，以至于尽量满足他的任何要求．
