句:

主干识别:
one group of campaigners has taken things a step too far
切分成分:
as we move away from the skinny goals of the mid-2000s and embrace different shapes and sizes,状语从句
(动词move和embrace并列)
参考译文:随着我们告别00年代中期的瘦身目标,并接纳不同的身材和尺寸,一群活动者的步子迈得过了头。
第二句:
Fronted by plus-sized models and social media influencers, the fat acceptance movement aims to normalize obesity, letting everyone know that it’s fine to be fat.
主干识别:
the fat acceptance movement aims to normalize obesity
切分成分:
1.Fronted by plus-sized models and social media influencers,状语
2. letting everyone know that it’s fine to be fat.
参考译文:加大码模特和网络红人引领的“接受胖人运动”以肥胖正常化为目标,让人人都知道胖没什么不好。
思考题:
There is a new campaign to embrace the idea of being fat.
所以这个表达是正确!
但是一定要有度,文章的后面还有这样表述:With terms such as “straight size” and “fat pride” proliferating, some influential figures are now even likening the valid concerns of health officials to hate crimes.
1.Liken A to B 把A比作B;
2.Proliferate:猛增,涌现;
独立主格直接独立成句:
With terms such as “straight size” and “fat pride” proliferating, some influential figures are now even likening the valid concerns of health officials to hate crimes.
这就是两句话:
1)With terms such as “straight size” and “fat pride” proliferating
= terms such as “straight size” and “fat pride” proliferate
“直板身材”和“胖人骄傲”一类的词汇(用语)层出不穷
2)some influential figures are now even likening the valid concerns of health officials to hate crimes
一些有影响力的红人现在甚至把卫生官员的合理担忧比作“仇恨犯罪”。
“直板身材”和“胖人骄傲”一类的词汇层出不穷。一些有影响力的红人现在甚至把卫生官员的合理担忧比作“仇恨犯罪”。
(这个直板身材就是和胖有关系的词,具体出处我没有考证,估计就是说你们这些瘦子还有腰,我们直接就是直着下去的。)(hate crimes是个新词,其精准翻译也没有统一标准,其意思就是因为某些言论而引起的仇恨,会被做犯罪,比如如果为“黑人都是小偷”这就是hate crime)
这样来看,现在的追求胖的趋势确实就不对了。
任何事,过了这个度就不好了。
