听力原文

原句:

Although our country is rich, the qualities of our living are still not satisfactory.

改句:

Rich as our country is, the qualities of our living are by no means satisfactory.

【解析】

细看原句,我们很快可以锁定"although"这个常用词,我的改法是把形容词“rich”提到句首,改成倒装句,这个句型一般为“形容词+as+名词主语+谓语动词”,意思是“尽管······还······”。

其次,我们细细研究下原句,可以发现还有一个地方可以修改得更好,原句想表达的语气,即“很不令人满意”,没有完全用英语表达出来,所以,去掉“not”,改成“by no means”,表示“绝不满意”之意,这下是不是语气更加强烈了呢?

下面大家自己试试看吧!

So, this is not just a European problem, but a problem here as well.

答案:

So, this is by no means a European problem, but a problem here as well.
