be that as it may/range from...to.../the way/make use of/to be doing/ by doing/It follows that/that's all there is to it /so…that/It occurred to sb. that...

1. "Be that as it may"是"Let it be that as it may"的简略节略体例,是由"be"惹起的其余一种倘使布局,意思是"固然如此,虽然如许"。

Be that as it may, she still choose this road.尽管如此,她如故选择了这条路。

2. "range from …to…"构造。这是一个常见构造,译时许多情况下应变通处置,不行无缺凭借辞典上的释义。

Computer applications range from an assembly line completely run by computers to a children toy responding to remote signals.

3. "the way…"组织

I always thought she was a common-sense person who discussed things the way they ought to be discussed.

4. 某些分开构造

1) 动词短语有关一些被隔离(当"make use of ","take notice of","pay attention to",

等动词短语酿成被动语态时)。

Use is made of solar energy in heating houses.

2)两重定语引发的隔离。

But there is of culture another view, in which not solely the scientific passion, the sheer desire to see things as they are, natural and proper in an intelligent being, appears as the ground of it.

5. "to be doing…when…"是一个句型,多译为"或人正在做……时,忽然……"。在简略单纯的句子中简单看出,一旦句子变得复杂部分,能够就不太简单识别这种句型。

She said she and a friend had gone out to dinner that night, and were walking home together at about 10 o'clock, when a "very big, very tall man", accosted them and demanded their purses. 在十点钟结伙回家时,忽然一个又高又壮的汉子呈现.......

6. "so…that, such…that"是一个寻常的句型,但在同一个句子里有两处使用它却比较罕有。

The truth is, that in one point of view, this matter of national literature has come to such a pass with us, that in some sense we must turn bullies, else the day is lost, or superiority so far beyond us, that we can hardly say it will ever be ours.

7. "by doing…"布局。这个布局的意思是"经过(做)……",但翻译实践中不行拘泥于这种释义,很多情况下必要敏捷明达。

The hippos, by depositing dung in the water, fed the fish that support the storks that destroy the rare trees.

8. "It occurred to sb. that…"意为"忽然料到","It dawned on sb.that…"."忽然想起"等。 从句是想起的内容。

I remember once being on a bus and looking at a stranger.

9. "It follows that…"="It happens as a result…"往往被译为"由此可见","是以","过去","能够推想"等等。

It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living.

10. "that's all there is to it ",意思是"也不过如此而已"。可遵照上下文视情形解决。

If I'm touched, I'm touched-that's all there is to it. 我碰了即是碰了。
