Question

【题目】阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Our school’s science festival just ended a few days ago. What impressed(使留下深刻印象) me most was the time we spent making a car. It was made of corrugated cardboard(瓦楞纸板), but can still hold a person, as well as move.

1.我们对这个想法很激动， 但我们发现做辆车很难。It seemed impossible for a cardboard car to carry someone. Our physics teacher showed us a video. In the video, there was some corrugated cardboard shaped like a “V” or “W”. It is tougher (更加坚固) and can hold more weight. This gave us the idea to make the car after getting the proper materials.

2.Because there was not much time left for us, we had to finish it as quickly as possible. We talked about how the car should be made and how to do experiments with it. I was glad that we were able to work closely with each other. 3.每个人都认为这是个有趣的放松方法。Indeed, enjoying the process helped us feel less stressed. 4.When the car was finally finished, we all wore a smile on our faces and found that all our hard work had been worth it, even after spending the whole afternoon working on it.

We joined the competition after we finished the car. 5.Though we didn’t win, we found something more meaningful than success. We learned new things about physics and learned how to get along with each other.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】We were excited about this idea, but we found it (was) difficult to make a car.

【4】当小车最终被制作完成时，我们脸上都面带微笑。

【5】虽然我们没有赢，但是我们发现了比成功更有意义的东西。

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述学校科技节让我们印象深刻的事情是制作小车，讲述制作的过程让我们学到了物理新知识，学会了怎样与别人相处。

【1】划线的句子“我们对这个想法很激动，但我们发现做辆车很难”前后是转折关系，用but连接。根据“seemed”可知是一般过去时态。主语“我们”用we，“对……很激动”用were excited about,宾语是this idea。后面的句子谓语动词“发现……很难”用固定结构found it （be）difficult to do sth.；it做形式宾语，be可以省略。真正的宾语“做辆车”用动词不定式to make a car。故答案为We were excited about this idea, but we found it (was) difficult to make a car.

【2】划线的句子“Because there was not much time left for us, we had to finish it as quickly as possible”，是原因状语从句。because表示原因，后面是“there be +不可数名词”句型，此处表示没有很多时间；“left for us”是time的定语修饰，表示“剩给我们的”；从句表示“ 因为所剩给我们的时间并不多了”或者“因为我们剩下的时间并不多了”。主句had to表示“不得不，必须”， as quickly as possible是动词“finish it”的副词修饰，表示“尽快”。故答案为因为所剩给我们的时间并（我们剩下的时间）不多了，（所以）我们不得不（必须）尽快完成。

【3】划线的句子“每个人都认为这是个有趣的放松方法”是宾语从句。主语是不定代词everyone,谓语动词用一般过去时态，“认为”用动词thought,后面的宾语是一个句子“这是个有趣的放松方法”。宾语从句主语是it，谓语动词用is或者was，“有趣的方法”用名词an interesting way,后面用动词不定式to relax做定语修饰。故答案为Everyone thought it is（was）an interesting way to relax.

【4】划线的句子“When the car was finally finished, we all wore a smile on our faces ”是when引导的时间状语从句。when表示“当……的时候”，“the car was finally finished”是被动形式，表示“小车最终被制作完成”；主句的主语是我们，谓语动词“wore a smile on our faces”表示“脸上面带微笑”。故答案为当小车最终被制作完成时，我们脸上都面带微笑。

【5】划线的句子“Though we didn’t win, we found something more meaningful than success”是转折关系的句子，though表示“虽然……但是……” 。从句的谓语动词“didn’t win”表示“没有赢”；主句谓语动词“found”表示发现，宾语“something more meaningful than success”是“不定代词+修饰词”的结构，表示“比成功更有意义的东西”。故答案为虽然我们没有赢，但是我们发现了比成功更有意义的东西。
