本节汇集了若干英文句子,逐条给出中译,用以辨析易误之处。所列句子涉及多种常见表达,如“Everything is difficult before they are easy”“Facts speak louder than words”“For all his effort, he still came last”等,涵盖了习语、比喻和容易望文生义的结构。译文注意区分字面义与实际含义,例如将“He is a walking skeleton”译为“他瘦得皮包骨”,将“He is a poor loser”译为“他输不起”,将“He was caught short”译为“他一时内急”,以及将“Hold your horses”译为“别急,沉住气”等。此外还包括对“nice and short”“more dead than alive”“putting you on”等短语的准确处理,力求译文贴合原句语气与语境。
