何凯文每日一句:2020考研英语第19句

San Francisco now serves as a metaphor for how tech money can transform even one of the most charming and energetic cities into a place where no teachers can afford to live, even young rich people are terrified of losing their apartments, and longtime residents grumble under their breath as they wander through suddenly alien streets.

(有不认识的单词吗?句子能否切分调序?猜一下文章背景)

先来做思考题:

The tech capital can bring some adverse effects to a robust city.

(T or F)

再来看看单词:

1. metaphor 隐喻,暗示

2. tech money 科技财富= tech capital 科技资本

3. terrified 害怕

4. longtime residents 老住户

5. grumble嘟哝(抱怨)under their breath 小声

6. wander 徘徊

7. alien 陌生

解析:何凯文每日一句

主干识别:

San Francisco now serves as a metaphor

切分成分:

1. for(表明) how tech money can transform even one of the most charming and energetic cities into a place(状语)

(这里也可以认为是定语,但这都不重要,重要的是for 和metaphor搭配要翻译为表明,表明;)

2. where no teachers can afford to live(定语从句1),

3.even young rich people are terrified of losing their apartments(定语从句2), and

4.longtime residents grumble under their breath (as they wander through suddenly alien streets状语)(定语从句3).

参考译文:

今天的旧金山是一个隐喻,暗示科技财富如何将一个最为迷人、最有活力的城市变成一个这样的地方,没有老师能负担这里的生活,即使年轻的富人也害怕失去单元房,而老住户徘徊在突然陌生的街道时嘟哝着小声抱怨。

所以思考题:

The tech capital can bring some adverse effects to a robust city.

技术资本会给一个有活力的城市带来负面的影响。

是正确的。

今天的文章来自今天的华盛顿邮报

科技公司会带来创新,但是也会带来贫富差距,这些城市是过去几十年不断升级的不平等的空间体现,它们表明发展一个城市、一个国家或全球经济非常容易,而只有非常--非常--非常富裕的人才能享用增长的所有收入。
