高考英語閱讀理解含譯文翻譯 男人四十

高考英語閱讀理解含譯文翻譯男人四十男人四十一朵花ManinHisFortiesIsaFlowerinBloom題目解析：題目出自文中第一句引用的俗語“男人四十一朵花，女人四十豆腐渣”，就是說男人四十多歲正是有魅力的時候，而女人卻失去了年輕女子的嫵媚。譯為Maninhisfortiesisaflowerinbloom，四十歲的男人就是一朵盛開的花。全篇圍繞男人四十歲展開行文。俗話說：“男人四十一朵花，女人四十豆腐渣”，此話雖然俗了點，卻說明四十歲的男人，確有其不可否認(rèn)的魅力。Thereisacommonsaying:“Maninhisfortiesisaflowerinbloom,butwomanissoybeanresidue.”Abitvulgarthissayingmaybe,butitdoestellussuchafactthatmaninhisfortiesreallypossessesundeniablefascination.residue

noun.asmallamountofsththatremainsattheendofaprocess·剩余物；殘留物；殘渣：pesticideresiduesinfruitandvegetables殘留在水果和蔬菜中的殺蟲劑vulgar

adj.nothavingorshowinggoodtaste;notpolite,elegantorwellbehaved·庸俗的；粗俗的；粗野的；不雅的avulgarman粗俗的男人fascination

noun[C,usuallysing.]·averystrongattraction,thatmakessthveryinteresting·魅力；極大的吸引力：Waterholdsafascinationformostchildren.水對多數(shù)孩子都有極大的吸引力。俗話說→Thereisacommonsaying...（的確）說明→itdoestellussuchafactthat...“有其不可否認(rèn)的魅力”我們在此用了“possessesundeniablefascination”，fascination一詞我們在《過節(jié)》那篇中也有用到，“最有樂趣的節(jié)日莫過于...”→nootherfestivalsheldgreaterfascinationformethan...。事業(yè)上，四十歲的男人具備年輕小伙子不具備的成熟與沉穩(wěn)。年輕小伙子雖然滿腔熱枕，但勇猛有余穩(wěn)重不足，猶如童子學(xué)書易犯“學(xué)而不思則罔”的錯誤。Inhiscareer,amanathisagepossessesthematurityandsteadinessthatayoungladlacks.Enthusiasticandwarm-heartedasaladmaybe,heismorebravethansteady.Justlikeaschoolchild,heislikelytomakethemistake“Learningwithoutthoughtislaborlost.”lad
