今天的翻译题是：

1.___________________(我宁愿你不要宣布决定)on the issue for the time being.

2.An enclosed,smoke-filled room has levels of harmful gas ________________(是平时的50倍).

答案解析:

1.答案:I'd rather you didn't declare/announce this decision

详解:

考查虚拟语气:would rather,would sooner,had rather,would(just) as soon,would prefer用来表达主观愿望，它们之后的宾语从句用虚拟语气，谓语动词用一般过去时表示现在或将来的事情，用过去完成时表示与过去事实相反的事情。本句中for the time being“目前”表示这是现在的事情，所以系动词用一般过去时didn't。
考查固定搭配:“宣布决定”的表达常用declare或announce the decision。

2.答案:50 times as high as normal // 49 times higher than normal

详解:
考查比较级:表示倍数的比较级常用“A is…times as + 形容词原级+as B”或“A is … times +形容词比较级+ than B”。
考查词汇:“平时”的表达为normal。
