這題我今天晚上剛剛給老莫上過....覺得有些重點跟我們最近所做的GWD有所雷同...在這邊試著作個小整理給大家...有興趣請看一看...
重點一:
「.......$3 billion in potential losses on foreign loans could mean less.......」
這邊用could假設語氣....是因為前面有potential這個字...之前我們也看到GWD有出現....would配forecast或expectation
我想大家也許可以做個有假設語氣意味的字整理表參考參考.....
重點二:
通常大家做這題可能第一個就會想到平衡...因為在畫線部份的開頭前出現了and...可是大家知道是怎麼平衡嗎?
我等等再跟大家講...請大家先想想試試看....
重點三:
pressure這個字是抽象名詞....後面加介係詞on.....而且前面不可以加冠詞...所以這題其實從這邊做即可得到解答...沒錯...就是唯一在pressure前面沒有加冠詞的答案C
重點四:
admit to 還有admit of 是慣用法...該怎麼用請參照老師的補充教材或是查字典.... :P
好吧...在這邊跟大家報告是哪裡平衡的....
「......could mean less lending by commercial banks to developing countries and increasd pressure on.......」
形容詞 + 名詞 + 介詞 and 形容詞 + 名詞 + 介詞
是不是很完美的平衡呢? :)
