Answer 1

【答案】

【1】In fact, she was very poor.

【2】當(dāng)她八歲時(shí)，她不得不離開(kāi)學(xué)校來(lái)幫助她的家庭。

【3】她認(rèn)為它不能使衣服足夠干凈。

【4】At the age of 86, a lawyer helped her make a will.

【5】她是一位靦腆而普通的婦女，但她卻很出名。

【解析】本文講述了一位名叫奧西奧拉麥卡蒂的普通婦女，自己雖然不富裕，但是她把所有的錢捐給了教堂，親戚和大學(xué)的故事。

【1】in fact“事實(shí)上”，be very poor非常窮，根據(jù)But everyone in her town knew that McCarty was not rich.可知此處用一般過(guò)去時(shí)，故為In fact, she was very poor.

【2】when she was eight years old當(dāng)她八歲時(shí)，leave school離開(kāi)學(xué)校，to help her family“為了幫助她的家庭”，此處表示目的狀語(yǔ)，故此處的意思為：當(dāng)她八歲時(shí)，她不得不離開(kāi)學(xué)校來(lái)幫助她的家庭。

【3】She did not think it got the clothes clean enough!此處是否定前移，think后面的賓語(yǔ)從句的否定形式移到了主句think處，get the clothes clean使衣服干凈，clean enough足夠干凈，故為：她認(rèn)為它不能使衣服足夠干凈。

【4】when she was 86=at the age of 86“在86歲時(shí)”，把復(fù)合句變?yōu)楹?jiǎn)單句，可以把時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句變?yōu)榻樵~短語(yǔ)，故為：At the age of 86, a lawyer helped her make a will.

【5】who became famous“出名的”是定語(yǔ)從句修飾woman，a shy and ordinary woman“一位緬甸而普通的婦女”，故此處的意思為：她是一位靦腆而普通的婦女，但她卻很出名。
