地道表达法——工作(三)
以下短语和句子均来自雅思写作短语训练以及雅思口语短语训练。
He found doing the routine work boring.
他觉得日常工作做起来很无聊。
注解:
routine work是日常的惯例工作,可以指某项工作的一个正常组成部分,也可以指工作千篇一律,平淡乏味,有不满的含义。
find可用于表达对某人或某事的反应,也就是“感觉”,find something boring也就是觉得某事很无聊的意思。
If we want to ensure a fair and functioning judiciary, our courts cannot be short-staffed.
如果我们想要确保司法公正有效,我们的法院不能人手短缺。
注解:
function指运转、运行,一个能够运作的司法系统一定是有效用的,结合前面的fair,译作“司法公正有效”。这一句也可以写作ensure that judiciary is fair and functioning,但未免冗长,原句中的形式则地道很多。
short-staffed意指“人手短缺的、人员不足的”,而在美式英语中常用short-handed。
A company or place that is short-staffed does not have enough people working there.
In the course of your work you may have access to information relating to the company’s business.
在工作过程中你可能会接触到与公司交易有关的信息。
注解:
in the course of something指“在……的过程中”,而需注意的是,in the course of time是指“总有一天,最后,终于”。
If something happens in the course of a particular period of time, it happens during that period of time.
If something changes or becomes true in the course of time, it changes or becomes true over a long period of time.
have access to的含义会根据宾语而有所改变。后接建筑物,指“有进入某地的权利;通道,入径”;后接某种物品,则指“有查阅或使用的机会或权利”;而后接某人,则指有“接近某人或与某人见面的机会或权利”。
If you have access to a building or other place, you are able or allowed to go into it.
If you have access to something such as information or equipment, you have the opportunity or right to see it or use it.
If you have access to a person, you have the opportunity or right to see them or meet them.

If there is friction between people, there is disagreement and argument between them.
Conflicts arise when people’s beliefs clash.
人们的信仰产生分歧时,冲突就出现了。
注解:
arise指“产生、出现、起源”,是一个抽象的概念,而rise指“上升”,是物理上的。conflicts arise即指出现冲突。
If a situation or problem arises, it begins to exist or people start to become aware of it.
clash指“意见不合,信仰或观点相互冲突”,而crash指“撞坏、崩溃”,可注意不要看错啦。
But despite many warnings, there was no improvement in the pace of work.
然而,尽管警告了很多次,工作节奏没有任何的改善。
注解:
improvement in something指某事有改进之处,而something is an improvement on something else,则指前者较后者有改善,是更为优秀的。
If there is an improvement in something, it becomes better. If you make improvements to something, you make it better.
If you say that something is an improvement on a previous thing or situation, you mean that it is better than that thing.
the pace of something指某事物的步伐、节奏。
