解析:
(1) |
由第一句“was ready to leave”可知他还未真正退休,故这只能是他的计划(plan)。 |
(2) |
他告诉他老板他准备离开建筑行业,和妻子过上悠闲的生活。 |
(3) |
退休的目的是为了享受生活(enjoy time)。 |
(4) |
退休了没有收入,当然会怀念pay(工资)。 |
(5) |
they could get by意为“他们经济上也过得去”;get along意为“进展”;get back意为“回来”;get around意为“苏醒过来”。 |
(6) |
当老板听说自己这么好的一个员工要离开了,当然感到很遗憾。 |
(7) |
as a personal favor意为“作为私人的帮助”。 |
(8) |
但实际上,很容易看出他的心根本没有放在工作上。 |
(9) |
他做工粗糙,采用劣质材料。 |
(10) |
由下文知,他以这样一种不幸的方式结束了他的职业生涯。 |
(11) |
由下文老板递给他钥匙,推知房子完工了。 |
(12) |
由文章可知,这套房子是作为礼物送给他的。 |
(13) |
与What a shock!意义最接近的应该是What a shame! |
(14) |
既然是送给自己的礼物,当然是给自己建造的(his own house)房子。 |
(15) |
如果他早知道这房子是属于他自己的,他必然会以一种不同的(differently)方式对待。 |
(16) |
这是一种倒装句式:so it is with sth./sb.意为“对于某人或某事来说同样如此”。 |
(17) |
由上面的一件事例(build a house),联想到人build our life。 |
(18) |
在关键时刻(at important points)我们没有尽全力去做。 |
(19) |
the situation we have created意为“我们造成的局面”。 |
(20) |
recognized意为“识别出”;known意为“了解”;realized意为“认识到”;prevented意为“阻止,妨碍”。 |
