Question

6．翻译下列句子．
每天锻炼一小时对保持健康很有用．
An hour's exercise every day is very useful for keeping fit/healthy．

Answer 1

分析 An hour's exercise every day is very useful for keeping fit/healthy．

解答 答案：An hour's exercise every day is very useful for keeping fit/healthy．
根据汉语意思，描述的是客观事实，所以时态为一般现在时；主语为"每天锻炼一小时"也就是"每天一小时的运动"，所以应用名词所有格"一小时的"作定语来修饰名词"锻炼"，即an hour's exercise，"每天"表达为every day，即An hour's exercise every day；"对…有用的"为be useful for，因为主语为单数意义，所以系动词为is；"保持健康"为固定短语 keep fit或 keep  healthy；因为for是介词，所以后面应该跟动名词keeping，故is very useful for keeping fit/healthy；所以此句可完整表达为：An hour's exercise every day is very useful for keeping fit/healthy．

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．
