Question

16．那起事故发生得很突然．
The accident happenedall of a sudden．

Answer 1

分析 all of a sudden

解答 答案：all of a sudden．需要译出突然地，故用短语all of a sudden，故答案是all of a sudden．

点评 all of a sudden意思是"突然地，出乎意料地"，为副词性短语，相当于suddenly，但是只能用来修饰整个句子，表示这件事发生的迅速、突然且出乎预料，通常放在句首或句尾．例如：
突然有人抓住了我的脖子．
All of a sudden someone grabbed me around my neck．
=Someone grabbed me around my neck all of a sudden．
=Suddenly someone grabbed me around my neck．
=Someone grabbed me around my neck suddenly．
