Question

8．你認為什么導(dǎo)致了這位年輕科學(xué)家的英年早逝？（contribute）What do you think has contributed to the scientist's death at such a young age/in his prime/the scientist's dying young？．

Answer 1

分析 What do you think has contributed to the scientist's death at such a young age/in his prime/the scientist's dying young？

解答 What do you think has contributed to the scientist's death at such a young age/in his prime/the scientist's dying young？
本句是對過去事實的一種評價，所以用現(xiàn)在完成時．
其中句子可以加上一個插入語do you think更能顯示出句子語氣的委婉性，contribute to導(dǎo)致，at such a young age/in one's prime在年輕時，正當(dāng)壯年．

點評 翻譯題要做到句式翻譯的精準，短語的正確運用，如in one's prime（正當(dāng)壯年）等．
