Question

20．直到发生了这件事，大众才关注他．
The public didn't pay attention to him until the thing happened．

Answer 1

分析 The public didn't pay attention to him until the thing happened

解答 答案：The public didn't pay attention to him until the thing happened．
首先分析句子的时态和结构：句子表述的是过去的事情，所以用一般过去时，结合句意用not…until…"直到…才…"引导时间状语从句，短语"关注他"是pay attention to him，"发生了这件事"是the thing happened，故答案是：The public didn't pay attention to him until the thing happened

点评 此题考查对整句话的翻译，做这类题时先分析所给汉语句子意思确定相关的词汇和句型，然后仔细推敲时态考虑人称和数的变化等容易出错的问题．
