第七十三天
Widespread use of smart phone and social media has changed in no small measure our way of communication, of shopping and of learning. We used to be vocal about the benefits that new technologies brought: they will lead to unprecedented job growth, support the economy and improve the quality of our lives. But it’s hard to ignore the growing public apathy in chatting with our friends in person. Regardless of the enormous amount of photos shared on Face book, modern city dwellers grow detached from their immediate surroundings and fail to realize that codes and digits can never provide the human touch that we yearn for.
思考題:
The benefits of the new technologies are dwarfed by the growing public apathy.
詞匯突破:
1.widespread廣泛的
2.unprecedented前所未有的
3.apathy冷漠
4.detach分離;分開
5.vocal 發(fā)聲,表達 (傳說中的打call)
第一句:
Widespread use of smart phone and social media has changed in no small measure our way of communication, of shopping and of learning.
參考譯文:智能手機和社交媒體的廣泛應用大大改變了溝通、購物和學習的方式。
第二句:
We used to be vocal about the benefits that new technologies brought : they will lead to unprecedented job growth, support the economy and improve the quality of our lives.
參考譯文:我們曾經(jīng)對新科技的優(yōu)點不吝贊美:他們可帶來前所未有的就業(yè)增長,支持經(jīng)濟并提升我們的生活質(zhì)量。
第三句:
But it’s hard to ignore the growing public apathy in chatting with our friends in person.
參考譯文:但我們很難忽視越來越嚴重的公眾冷漠。不愿意與朋友面對面交談。
第四句:
Regardless of the enormous amount of photos shared on Wechat or Face book, modern city dwellers grow detached from their immediate surroundings and fail to realize that codes and digits can never provide the human touch that we yearn for.
參考譯文:雖然微信和臉書上分享了海量的照片,但現(xiàn)代的都市居民離周圍的現(xiàn)實越來越疏離,沒有意識到代碼和字節(jié)永遠無法提供我們內(nèi)心渴望的人情味。
再送大家一些實用的表達:(這就是誠意!)
1.vocal about the merits of sth./vocal about the benefits that sth. brings
當你想客觀描述一下大眾或某個群體對某種事物的積極評價時,可用此述。
比如:
Psychologists have long been vocal about the merits of the optimistic attitude.
2.sb. paint sth. as playing a leading role ...
表揚的同時需作出若干評價,則可以用這個表達。比如:
Many experts paint reading as playing a leading role in achieving great personal success.
3.but it’s hard to ignore/turn a blind eye to…
當說完一個事件的正面,要說反面時,可以用這個表達來轉(zhuǎn)折。比如:
But it’s hard to turn a blind eye to the growing problems of school-weariness among students, who are fed up with test-oriented learning and drop out as soon as they have the chance.
4.Regardless of…
表示“且不論,雖然”這個讓步關(guān)系時,大家也可以試著用這個短語,會顯得行文更地道一些。比如:
Regardless of the great wealth amassed by elites, the hundreds of millions of people living in the countryside still struggle to get formal education for their children.
思考題:
The benefits of the new technologies are dwarfed by the growing public apathy.(A is dwarfed byB=B dwarfs A ; A因為B而相形見絀=B使A相形見絀= B大于A)
The benefits of the new technologies are dwarfed by the growing public apathy.
(新技術(shù)的好處因為公眾越來越多的冷漠而相形見絀。)
這個比較是不存在的,所以是錯誤的!
考研慣用套路:原文沒有比較,選項出現(xiàn)比較!
明天的句子:
AI is one of modern technology’s most competitive fields. Google CEO Sundar Pichai in January called AI “one of the most important things that humanity is working on” and “more profound than electricity or fire.” While Facebook’s AI rivals have developed automated voice assistants or spearheaded breakthroughs in gaming, robotics or self-driving cars, the social network has devoted much of its AI engineering to analysis of images, video and text--facial recognition, language translation and detection of unwanted content or harmful comments.
思考題:
What has Facebook done recently relating to AI research?
A. Its CEO compares the importance of AI to that of electricity or fire.
B. It has taken leading position in facial recognition and vocal analysis.
C. It has stepped up efforts in using AI to analyze harmful comments.
D. It is competing with the social network for vicious content.
