今天的句子：

词汇突破：

1.Inevitably：不可避免的

2. pharma firms 医药公司

3. trade-off (名词)权衡，考虑

句：

第二句：

It may well be better to give people the option of a treatment in five years whose efficacy is known with 80% certainty than to wait 20 years for one with 99% certainty.

主干识别：

It may well be better to do A than to do B.

切分成分：

To do A = to give people the option of a treatment in five years whose efficacy is known with 80% certainty

进一步切分：

whose efficacy is known with 80% certainty

whose= treatment’s

翻译的时候可以把option转译为动词，give 不翻译;

让人们5年内能选择可知有效率达80%的药物

To do B= to wait 20 years for one with 99% certainty.

One=treatment

用20年来等待有效率达99%

参考译文：让人们5年内能选择可知有效率达80%的药物， 完全可能比用20年来等待有效率达99%的药物更好。
