　　难句透视

　　1.Working the land耕种土地

　　剖析:work作及物动词用,意为"经营,管理"。如:To work a farm经营农场

　　2.If you had the chance to do one thing to help end hunger in the world,what would you do?

　　如果你有机会做一件有助于结束世界饥饿现象的事情,你会做什么？

　　剖析:这个句子中需要注意:(1)这是一个与现在事实相反的虚拟语气,条件状语从句中的时态用一般过去时had;主句的时态是"would+原形"。有时我们使用虚拟语气也是为了使说话的语气委婉一些。(2)help end hunger=help to end hunger,其中的end是及物动词,意为"有助于结束饥饿"。

　　3.He wants everyone to call him a farmer,for that's how he regards himself.

　　他让大家叫他农民,因为他也是这样看待自己的。

　　剖析:这个句子需要注意:(1)这是一个并列句,for是并列连词,for后面的分句为前面提供证据和说明。(2)regard意为"认为；看待"。

　　4.This special strain of rice makes it possible to produce one-third more of the crop in the same fields.

　　这种特殊的稻种使得同样的田地多收获三分之一的产量。

　　剖析:这是一个"make+形式宾语it+形容词作宾补+to do"句式,意为"使得......成为可能"。

　　5.Indeed,he believes that a person with too much money has more,rather than fewer troubles.

　　他确实认为,一个人有了太多的钱,他的麻烦事只会更多,而不是更少。

剖析:with too much money作定语修饰person,意为"有太多钱的人"。rather than 连接两个并列的比较级形式的定语--more,fewer,意为"而不是"。
