　　　　中文翻译

　　　　知识点小结

　　1.词组a number of的意思是“许多……”“一些……”，后接复数名词，谓语通常用复数。例如：

　　A number of students participated in this activity.

　　许多学生参加了这次活动。

　　词组the number of意思是“……的总数”，也是接复数名词，但谓语要用单数。例如：The number of students participating in this activity this year is twice as much as last year.今年参加这个活动的人数是去年的两倍。

　　2.“it has become clear that…”中的it是句子的形式主语，真正的主语是后面的that从句。为了避免头重脚轻，当主语过长时常使用形式主语，而把真正的主语放在后面。不定式作主语、动名词作主语时，也常用it作形式主语。

　　3.outline作名词表示“轮廓;概要;大概描述”，作动词表示“概括;画……的轮廓”。

　　4.名词perspective表示“透视，远景，看法;观点”。

　　　　参考翻译

　　从最近的一些研究来看，显然盲人可以理解用轮廓和透视法来描述物体的排列以及其他空间平面的方法。

　　　　与本次句子翻译相关的阅读项目

　　From a number of recent studies, it has become clear that blind people can appreciate the use of outlines and perspectives to describe the arrangement of objects and other surfaces in space. But pictures are more than literal representations. This fact was drawn to my attention dramatically when a blind woman in one of my investigations decided on her own initiative to draw a wheel as it was spinning. To show this motion, she traced a curve inside the circle (Fig.1). I was taken aback. Lines of motion, such as the one she used, are a very recent invention in the history of illustration. Indeed, as art scholar David Kunzle notes, Wilhelm Busch, a trend-set-ting nineteenth-century cartoonist, used virtually no motion lines in his popular figures until about 1877.

　　In the first paragraph the writer makes the point that blind people

　　A. may be interested in studying art.

　　B. can draw outlines of different objects and surfaces.

　　C. can recognize conventions such as perspective.

　　D. can draw accurately.

　　　　汉英翻译练习

　　就我自己而言，我倾向于将旅游视作能够独享清净、可以与大自然亲密交流的时刻。每当此时，我都试图回顾以往、反省自己，然后为以后的生活作更佳的计划。

　　　　参考答案

　　As for me, I tend to view traveling as a moment when I can enjoy the solitude and communicate intimately with Mother Nature. During these moments, I would look back on the past and reflect on the present, which would help me make better plans for the future.

　　　　写作题目

　　Some people think traveling abroad is necessary while others think that is not necessary because TV and the Internet can give the same information. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
