CE forum-Tanslation

1:Translation really tests our reading and comprehension ability;

2:Emphasis:attributive clause,adverbial clause,passive clause,指代pronoun,special statement matrix(inverted statement matrix,there be,虚拟mood);

3:we should give only one answer for every translation question,or,if you give multiple answers and there is some wrong in one of the answers,you will fail on this question;

4:we should learn to unpack some long and difficult sentences.

The usage of "put"(L27 of NCE)

1.put up:

  He has put up the tent.

2.put down:

  Please put down this paragraph.

3.put...up...:

  You need not to go home,I have put you up.(?)

4.put up with:

  I cann't put up with this kind of things!

5.put on:

  I put my hat on and go to work.

6.put away:

  Put away your toy and go to bed!

 

"either"and"too","if"and "whether"

He has no green pen,I has no too.(ERROR!)->

He has no green pen,I has no either.

There are several places where cann't use 'if' instead of 'whether':

1.before infinitives:

  The question is whether to go or stay.

2.after prepositions:

  It depends on whether he's ready or not.

3.after noun:

  It's your decision whether you go or stay.

4.with "or not" in sentences like this:

  I asked him whether or not he is a doctor.

Finished PRE-TEST UNIT 2 of NCE

The same mistake always happens again and again for me in learning english.

1.Present tense can express an action always happens,but express an action always happened in the past time should use Past tense except in the direct speech which person said that in the past time;

2.The position of adverb to express frequency:

1)He always does this.

2)He must always does this.
