A、time of outrage is upon us. Now a feeling has grown in Western societies that uncontrollable forces are at work shrinking possibility. History has never seen a global power shift as radical as the current one that managed to be peaceful.
Growth, jobs, expansion, excitement—and, yes, possibility—lie in the great non-Western arc fromChina through India to SouthAfrica andBrazil. The world has been turned upside-down. What we are witnessing is how shaken Western societies are by such inversion.As new powers emerge, globalization has altered the relationship between capital and labor in the former’s favor. Returns on capital have proved higher relative to wages. The gap between rich and poor has become a gulf.

试题答案:从这场金融狂热中安然脱身且毫发未损的,只是其主要的设计者和最大的受益人:诸如银行家和金融家等。这也滋长了一个义愤时代的出现,使得西方政客们不知所措。 答案解析:[解析] 本例两句均为复合句,前句含一由who引导的定语从句修饰主语,后句则含一由that引导的结果状语从句。本句中的几个词unscathed,binge,fueling等都采用了其比喻用法,注意汉语翻译与之的对应程度,如unscathed和“毫发未损”均为比喻,但喻体形式不一。chase shadows一般译成“捕风捉影”、“徒劳”,这里译的“茫然不知所措”也是一不错的选择。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
