2017年6月英语六级阅读必背关键句(12)
The result could be a group of young people that, like their boomer parents, grows up with a strong sense of purpose and sheds the image of apathy they’ve inherited from Generation X. 结果可能是一群年轻人,像他们二战后生育高峰期出生的父母一样,带着强烈的使命感长大成熟,并褪去从X一代那里继承下来的冷漠形象。 六级词汇讲解: 本句的主干是The result could be…a that引导的是含有两个并列谓语grows up和sheds的定语从句,修饰young people;介词短语like their boomer parents则作该定语从句的状语。 shed在句中意为“放弃;摆脱”。如: You must learn to shed your depression. 你应该尽量摆脱消沉的心态。 apathy意为“冷漠,冷淡”。如: People have shown surprising apathy toward these important social problems. 人们时这些严重的社会问题表现出的冷漠令人吃惊。 inherit意为“继承,传承”。如: We should inherit these cultural traditions. 我们应该继承这些文化传统。 六级考点归纳: shed含义丰富,尤其是在作动词的情况下: 1.表示“流出;把……排掉”。如: The prisoner shed tears of shame. 囚犯流下了悔恨的泪水。 This kind of rood is designed for shedding water. 设计这种屋顶是为了排水。 2.表示“散发;洒下”。如: The lamp shed soft light on the desk. 台灯柔和的光线照射在桌面上。 The flowers in my garden shed perfume. 我家花园里的花儿散发着芬芳。 3.表示“脱落”。如: Trees shed their leaves as the winder is coming. 随着冬天的到来,树落叶了。 相关资料 |
