Towards the end of Middle English, a sudden change in pronun

564030842022-10-04 11:39:541条回答


Towards the end of Middle English, a sudden change in pronunciation started, with vowels being pronounced shorter and shorter. From the 16 th century the British had contact with people from around the world. This means that many new words and phrases entered the language. The invention of printing also meant that there was a common language in print. Books became cheaper and more people learned to read. Spelling and grammar became fixed and the dialect (方言)of London became the standard. In 1604, the first English dictionary was published.
The numbers of words in Early Modern English and Late Modern English differ. Late Modern English has a lot more words because of two main factors: firstly, the Industrial Revolution created a need for new words; secondly, the British Empire covered one quarter of the earth’s surface, and the English language took in foreign words from many countries.
From around 1600, the English colonization(殖民地化)of North America resulted in the creation of American English. Some English pronunciation and words froze when they reached America. In some ways, American English is more like the English of Shakespeare than modern British English. Some expressions that the British call “ Americanisms” are in fact original (原先的)British expressions that were preserved (保存) in the colonies but were lost in Britain. Spanish also had an influence on American English, with words like canyon, ranch, stampede and vigilante being examples of Spanish words that entered English. French words and West African words also influenced American English.
Today, American English is the most influential(有影响力的). But there are many other kinds of English around the world, including Australian English, New Zealand English, Canadian English, South African English , Indian English and Caribbean English. They have differences.
小题1:What can we know from Paragraph 1?
A.The dialect of London became the standard in the year 1604.
B.Vowels were pronounced longer towards the end of Middle English
C.The first English dictionary was published in the early 17 th century.
D.Many new words entered English because many people moved to Britain.
小题2:From Paragraph 2, we know that the Industrial Revolution __________.
A.required spelling and grammar to be fixed
B.required a greater number of English words
C.caused many old English words to be useless
D.led to the English colonization of North America.
小题3:The underlined word “froze” in Paragraph 3 shows that some English words in America___________.
A.became longer
B.greatly changed
C.a little changed
D.stayed as they were
小题4:What will the paragraph following this passage most probably discuss?
A.The development of Modern English
B.How the English vocabulary became larger
C.Differences among the different kinds of English
D.Differences between Middle English and Modern English

英语翻译
The experimental work was oriented towards studying how the amount of oxidant applied affects the biodegradability of initially non-biodegradable different organic compounds.Figure 1 shows the BOD/COD ratio (the standard for 5 and 21 days) for six organic compounds.BOD/COD constitutes a good measure of the biodegradability of a wastewater.Contaminants with a ratio of BOD /COD>0.4 may be considered thoroughly biodegradable.It can be observed that acetic acid (ACH) and phenol (PHE) are quite biodegradable,formic acid (FOR) is lightly biodegradable,but 4-chlorophenol (4-CP),2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) and nitrobenzene (NB) are refractory to the biological treatments.
Two kinds of experiments were developed.First type were conducted to the search of the stoichiometric coefficients,that is to know the moles of organic compound removed by 1 mol of hydrogen peroxide.Thirty mililiter vials,at room temperature,were filled with organic/Fe solution at Fe/organic ratios of 1 :1,0.1 :1 and 0.01 :1.Different doses of peroxide were added to these vials (from 0.1±50 mol H O mol organic).After 24 h organic remaining was analyzed by HPLC,TOC,COD and BOD.Second type were kinetic experiments and were carried out in a stirred reactor of 1.5L capacity at batch operation,isothermal conditions and refrigerated by water.For these experiments the measured variables were:redox potential,pH,temperature,concentration of organic and TOC.

英语翻译
Laura walked towards the man."It is terribly cold," she said
"Colder than ever," the man said."Now tell me what the hell you want." He staredat Laura for a few seconds,and then grinned,"Maybe you'd like to come inside andwarm up.
"No.No,I don't want to come in." She took a deep breath."I just wanted to know if you're interested in selling your dog.-
"That worthless mutt?" The man pointed to a dog in the yard and laughed for a few seconds,then suddenly stopped."I was just joking about the worthless part.He's a pretty good dog.eah.I might be interested."
"Well.he's the kind of dog I'm looking for.and it doesn't look to me like you're too fond of him.I mean he' s tied up outside.I don't see any food or water."
"You just wait a minute.I take good care of that dog.The guy I got him from said he was a trainedguard dog.Trouble is the stupid thing doesn't even bark when strangers come around.But then I guess that wouldn't matter to you.You' re probably just looking for a pet,huh?"
"Yeah.well here's your chance to get rid of him.[' 1i give you twenty dollars,"
Be snorted ."You expect me to sell a purebred guard dog for twenty dollars?Fifty dollars.That' s my price.You bring me fifty dollars,honey,and you got yourself a dog." The man smiled."Sure you don't want to come in?"
Laura shook her head."I'll be back with the money." Breakfast forgotten,she searched for and found a cash machine four blocks away.I can't afford this,she thought as she punched the numbers into the machine.The dog will need a vet and where am I going to get the money for that?Her fears faded as she pictured the dog,curled up,not outside on the cold.hard ground,but in front of a glowing fireplace.Blue ceramic bowls filled with food and water sat in the corner of the kitchen,and she saw him,head held high,matching her stride on their daily walk With the money in her purse she hurried back to the man's house.

iamzhwei1年前2
guanguang1 共回答了17个问题 | 采纳率88.2%
B
(1) fairly 语气最轻,尽管经常与褒义词连用,但由于语气较弱,往往不带明显的恭维或赞赏,通常译为“还算”、“相当”.比如要说某部电影 fairly good,指的可能是还勉强过得去,只是没有否定.
此外,fairly adv.还可表示“公正地”,“按规矩地”;“光明正大地”
He told the facts fairly.他实事求是地叙述这些事实.
(2) quite 语气稍重,意为“颇”或“相当”.要是说某一部电影quite good,那是说这部电影相当不错,虽不是最好,但至少值得看.
(3) rather 或 pretty 在语气上又稍重一点,意为“十分”或“相当” (pretty 不如 rather 正式).要是说某一部电影 rather / pretty good,指的是这电影相当不错,语气比较重,意指要高出一般水平或出乎意料地好.
两者均可与褒义或贬义形容词连用.与褒义词连用,表示一种愉快的心情,与贬义(包括不褒不贬)词连用,表示一种不赞成或不满意的心情.如:
a rather [pretty] good play 相当好的戏
rather [pretty] poor work 相当差的工作
(4) very 语气最强,意为“很”或“非常”.要是说某一部电影very good,这是说这部电影很不错,算得上是精品之作.
这些词语气的轻重可大致描述为:
(not) → fairly → quite → rather / pretty → very
二、用法上的差别
以上各词中,只有 rather 可以与比较级以及副词 too (太) 连用.

A fixed
改成主动应该是
He fixed his eyes on me.
He came towards me.
连接两个句子,用with表伴随.
fix one's eyes on sth用法中,“his eyes”和“fix”是直接的动词和宾语关系,你可以把fix理解成“放在”,fix one's eyes on sth就是把某人的注意力(eyes)放在(fix)某物上,此处eyes引申出注意力的含义.eyes当然也就是被fix在我身上的.所以用fix的被动形式.

yinglianshuiyi 共回答了16个问题 | 采纳率100%
这破题目太刁钻了,全部的语境都在began这个词上,因为是过去式,所以一个the是必要的,关键看语义focus在哪个词上.如果有上下文的话,大部分情况下应该用 towards the evening,a heavy rain began to fall.这种情况是这个晚上已经被指定,是特指这个晚上,大雨并不是最突出的.比如,在一篇文章中提到:终于到了那一天,在那个夜晚,开始下起了大雨,就用到 the/a.然而,如果是单独的一个句子,rain这个主语在过去式中,就需要一个定冠词the,同时,有了rain前的定冠词,evening前面就不需要定冠词修饰而句子同样说得通了.你可以把句子变化一下,_____ heavy rain began to fall towards _____ evening.这样会更好理解一点.

My View on Money
Money is regarded by some people as the most importent thing in life.It is even regarded as the symbol of wealth and social position.For example,with plenty of money a man can do whatever he wants to.He can afford expensive cars and luxurious houses,and he can travel around the world and visit as many interesting places as he wants to.In their eyes,money is everything in life.
In my opinion,money can both benefit people and do harm to them.On the one hand,we can't deny that money is useful.We need money to buy food,buy a house or pay our education cost.Money can make us live more comfortably.For example,with more money,we can help others and take part in more social activities and receive a good education,thus increasing our knowledge and developing our skills.On the other hand,some people try to get money by dishonest means,for example,they often cheat and gemble,even rob and kill people.Sooner or later,they will be punished by the law.Money can bring them nothing but misery.
In addition,money can not buy everything,For instance,no matter how much money one hast he can not buy good health,happiness or friendship,Although money is useful in many ways,there are still a lot of things that money can't buy in the world.In addition,money can also do harm to us.If a person really thinks of money as everything and pays his attention only to money,he will lose his friends,or even the care and warmth from his family.Thus,it brings him only loneliness.

toward和towards这两个词在用法和意义上基本没有什么区别,可以互换使用,但前者主要用于美式英语中,英国人多用towards.两者最基本的用法是做介词用,当然还有形容词的用法.
其它类似的用法意义基本无区别的词还有:forward 和forwards, backward和backwards, upward和upwards等.

求解释最后一句的含义.
Towards the end of Overdressed,Cline introduced her ideal,a Brooklyn woman named SKB,who,since 2008 has make all of her own clothes——and beautifully.But as Cline is the first to note,it took Beaumont decades to perfect her craft; her example,can’t be knocked off.
【can’t be knocked off.】改怎么翻译啊?
上面打错了:
【her example,can’t be knocked off.】该怎么翻译啊?
难道是【她的例子不能被打败】?

我在 2012 年 6 月 21 日 出版的 (美国) 商业周刊 (Businessweek) 找到了原文,也在其他网站找到了2013研究生考试英语的试题.比较之下,看到研考英语试题中有一个严重错误.写在下面供你参考.原文接下的一段是这样的:
Though several fast-fashion companies have made efforts to curb their impact on labor and the environment—including H&M,with its green Conscious Collection line—Cline believes lasting change can only be effected by the customer.She exhibits the idealism (or naïveté) common to many proponents of sustainability,be it in food or in energy.Vanity is a constant; people will only start shopping more sustainably when they can’t afford not to.
我在几个中文网站看到的试题都是如下收尾:
...people will only start shopping more sustainably when they can’t afford to it.
can’t afford not to 和 can’t afford to it 简直是正好相反.这实在是研考试题不该犯的错误.

南丁格尔伯爵曾经说过:“我们对生活的态度决定生活对我们的态度!”
Now he _____ (wave) his arm towards Bill.
Now he _____ (wave) his arm towards Bill.
这里用is waving还是waves?
At the moment the taxi stops and the passenger gets off.Now he _____ (wave) his arm towards Bill.It turns out to be Jim,Bill's best friend!

您好,如果是单独一句话:
Now he is waving (wave) his arm towards Bill.
这里有 now 进行暗示是现在的动作,所以用现在进行时.
但你给出了上下文:
At the moment the taxi stops and the passenger gets off. Now he waves (wave) his arm towards Bill.It turns out to be Jim,Bill's best friend!
这里很明显要用一般现在时 waves,原因是前后句都在保持这个时态记叙同一个时间段发生的事情.Now在这里的意思是“叙事时发生的时间”,“当时”,不知道你理解了没.
希望对您有帮助,不懂的话可以继续提问.

Towards the end of Middle English, a sudden change in pronun
Towards the end of Middle English, a sudden change in pronunciation started, with vowels being pronounced shorter and shorter. From the 16 th century the British had contact(联系) with people from around the world. This means that many new words and phrases entered the language. The invention of printing also meant that there was a common language in print. Books became cheaper and more people learned to read. Spelling and grammar became fixed and the dialect (方言)of London became the standard. In 1604, the first English dictionary was published.
The numbers of words in Early Modern English and Late Modern English differ. Late Modern English has a lot more words because of two main factors(因素): firstly, the Industrial Revolution created a need for new words; secondly, the British Empire covered one quarter of the earth’s surface, and the English language took in foreign words from many countries.
From around 1600, the English colonization(殖民地化)of North America resulted in the creation of American English. Some English pronunciation and words froze when they reached America. In some ways, American English is more like the English of Shakespeare than modern British English. Some expressions that the British call “ Americanisms” are in fact original (原先的)British expressions that were preserved (保存) in the colonies but were lost in Britain. Spanish also had an influence on American English, with words like canyon, ranch, stampede and vigilante being examples of Spanish words that entered English. French words and West African words also influenced American English.
Today, American English is the most influential(有影响力的). But there are many other kinds of English around the world, including Australian English, New Zealand English, Canadian English, South African English , Indian English and Caribbean English. They have differences.

towards此时约等于:to
towards [ tə'wɔ:dz,tu-,'təuədz,twɔ:dz ] prep.朝,向;对于;有助于
toward 只有在如下情况才用:
adj.[古]即将来到的,进行中的
其它情况,做介词时,现在都用towards了,toward 现代人已经不用,完全用towards代替了.
