小编:长安 213英语阅读和写作中有大量的“增加趋势”的表达,对于读懂文章和写作有很大的帮助,环球教育谢文斌老师现总结相关内容表达如下:
例1:The mouse population exploded as a result--- and the hantavirus got a free ride.
翻译:老鼠的数量因此而激增,汉坦病毒也随之大量增加(Note:get a free ride意为免费搭便车)。
解释:explode激增,迅猛地发展,迅速扩张(或扩大):
如:the exploding knowledge激增的知识
例2:It didn't seem that way 30 years ago---not with smallpox largely defeated, AIDS still undreamed of and medical science evolving at an unprecedented clip.
翻译:情况似乎和30年前不同---当时是天花还没有被大量消灭,人们做梦都没有想到会有艾滋病,且当时医学正以史上最牛的速度向前发展。
解释:clip (n)快步;急驰;疾走 短语:at a good/rapid/fast clip=quickly 表示飞速
如:With resorts like these popping up at a fast clip, how can travelers trust that the luxury property is up to snuff? 随着大量的这类的度假胜地飞速涌现,游客怎能相信奢华住房能够发展良好?(Note:up to snuff状况良好、达到要求)
例3:1997, Nike ramped up production just before the Asian banking crisis killed demand , then flooded the market with cheap shoes, undercutting its own retailers and driving many into the arms of Adidas.
翻译:1997年亚洲金融危机严重扼杀了商品需求之前,耐克刚刚提高了产量,然后市场上就充斥了廉价的耐克鞋,使得其零售商以低于竞争者的价码出售商品,结果他们很多都不得不转而投入阿迪达斯的怀抱。(Note:就是说这些零售商转而卖阿迪的鞋子或者说是成了阿迪的零售商)
解释:ramp up增加,提高: ramp up one's efforts/growth加大努力/发展
例4:Temperatures climbed more rapidly in the twentieth century as the use of fossil fuels proliferated and greenhouse gas levels continued to soar.(托福/雅思阅读)
翻译:随着化石燃料的激增和温室气体的水平持续飙升,在20世纪地球温度更加迅速上升。
