跟着KK开始学习何凯文每日一句!人类在数十年的时间就建立了一整个能同时能联结如此多人、拥有如此全面功能的系统,觉得自豪,相比其他更能点燃我们对未来的希望。如果你能从开始坚持到结束,对于每一句能够融会贯通,那么你就赢了!下面文都考研带给大家何凯文每日一句:
The traditional telephone system relied on circuits to transmit communications — that is, a dedicated connection from each party on a call to the other. There were advantages to that model, especially because having a dedicated circuit meant that telephone calls were very reliable, but it was not a terribly flexible system. The Internet, by contrast, was designed for flexibility. Bandwidth permitting, every member of a household can use it simultaneously, with multiple different devices, in dozens of ways, for many purposes, all at once.
思考题:
The telephone system is mentioned to show that___.
A.oral communication is outdated
B.it is a strong and reliable model
C.flexibility makes Internet desirable
D.circuits can serve multiple purposes
词汇突破:
circuits 电路
transmit 传输
— that is, 也就是说
a dedicated connection 专用的链接
a dedicated circuit 专线
terribly(非常)
this dish is terribly delicious. (这道菜太好吃了!)
这就类似于汤神说的:清晰地一塌糊涂、
flexible 灵活的
by contrast, 相比较而言(找出不同点)、
by comparison (找出共同点)
flexibility 灵活性
Bandwidth 带宽
simultaneously 同时
句子解析:
第一句:
The traditional telephone system relied on circuits to transmit communications — that is, a dedicated connection from each party on a call to the other.(同位语解释前面的句子)
参考译文:传统的电话系统依靠电路来传输通信,即从每个呼叫方和另一方之间有专用的连接。
第二句:
There were advantages(主干) to that model, especially because having a dedicated circuit meant that telephone calls were very reliable, 状语 but it was not a terribly flexible system.(并列主干二)
参考译文:这种模式有其优点,尤其是专用电路意味着电话呼叫非常可靠,但它并不是一个非常灵活的系统。
第三句:
The Internet,by contrast, was designed for flexibility.
参考译文:相比之下,互联网为灵活性而设计。
第四句:
Bandwidth permitting,(状语) every member of a household can use it simultaneously, with multiple different devices, in dozens of ways, for many purposes, all at once.(状语)
参考译文:带宽允许的情况下,每个家庭成员都可以同时使用,接入多个不同设备,为了许多目的,以数十种方式,全都同时进行。
思考题解析:
The telephone system is mentioned to show that___.
这是一个例证题!
电话系统被提及来展示_____
(首先,电话系统就是为了引入,后面的互联网,所以直接锁定答案:
C. flexibility makes Internet desirable
(灵活性让互联网受欢迎)
当然如果你们这个意识,那就来排除其他三个:
A. oral communication is outdated
(口头交流已经过时)
没有提及!排除!
B. it is a strong and reliable model
(这是一种坚固且可靠的模式)
这就是例证题常见的错误!例子说明的不是例子本身,而是对应的结论。
举例:
何凯文老师是英语老师,都四十了还在勤奋地写公号。相比较而言,马云老师四十的时候就已经辞职了,人和人的区别还是很大的。
何凯文老师被提及来说明______
(A) 何凯文老师很勤奋。
(B) 人和人是有区别的。
答案只能选B吧!
例证题的答案:来自例子前后的结论。
D. circuits can serve multiple purposes
(电路可以有多种用途)
应该是互联网能完成多用途,而不是电路,
D选项错误。
