问题
When asked to explain what has happened, John was totally at a loss for words.
选项
A、近年来人们对于控制会议长度的方法提出了很多想法。
B、最近几年来人们对于如何减少会议数量提出了很多意见。
C、近年来人们对于控制会议长度的方法考虑了很多。
D、如何在最近几年内减少会议数量是很多人都曾考虑过的问题。
答案
B
解析
本句中包括一个省略形式的时间状语从句,如果根据上下文补充出来,应为“when,John was asked to explain what has happened”,所以该状语意为“要求约翰解释发生过的事情时”。理解主句的难点在于对短语at a loss for words的理解,该短语意为“不知道说什么好,找不到合适的话说”。结合上述分析可知,四个选项中选项B提供的译文最好。选项A的问题在于错将at a loss for words译为“话让人摸不着头脑”;选项D同样错解了短语at a loss for words,将其译为“一句话也不肯说”,同时该选项还将时间状语从句中的被动语态译为主动语态,与原意有较大出入;选项C的译文与原文相比,无论在句法结构还是在语义表达上都有很大出入,只不过是对原文中个别单词意思的随意组合,最不可取。
