2.翻译第二句时，“努力学习”“考得好”和“能上名牌大学”作表语，可用动词不定式来表达.“他们对孩子的首要要求”是句子的主语，有两种译法：一是直接用名词短语表达，即their primary requirement for theirchildren;二是用名词性从句表达，即what they require their children first to do.

2018年12月大学英语四级考试刚刚结束，相信同学们对咱们的写作话题还记忆犹新。这次的四级作文共有三个话题，且都是要求围绕着“挑战”进行书写。整体难度较去年来看，难度不大。接下来，文都四六级辅导老师将四级的三个作文给大家进行一下剖析。【四级写作话题】 四级写作话题有三个。如下： [if !supportLists]1. [endif]毕业后创业面临的挑战（the challenges of starting a career after graduation） [if !supportLists]2. [endif]出国留学面临的挑战（the challenges of studying abroad） [if !supportLists]3. [endif]在大城市生活面临的挑战（the challenges of living in a big city） 以上三个话题中的单词较简单，虽然大部分学生应该还是能读懂题目，但是还是有个别学生错把挑战（challenges）当做了改变（changes），把事业（career）看错成癌症（cancer），这样的话就跑题了。 【四级写作话题思路】 话题1： 毕业后有的学生会选择创业，在创业方面面临的挑战分为以下三点。第一，缺乏资金。第二，缺乏经验。第三，如果威胁到现有企业的利益，会遭到现有企业的阻挠。 话题2： 出国留学面临的挑战，可以从以下三方面进行阐述。首先，对于外国的文化或者风俗不了解，无法融入当地的生活或者学习群体。其次，语言障碍导致无法与人正常沟通。最后，如果有什么问题或者意外发生，就会感到孤立无援。 话题3： 在大城市生活主要面临的挑战，可以从以下三方面进行着手。首先，大城市的房价过高，大部分人负担不起，每月租房住，日常花销大。然后，大城市公司要求高，员工工作压力大。最后，在大城市生活，如果身边没有朋友，会很孤独。 【四级写作话题可用句型】 开头： 1With the rapid growth of ......, more and more people choose to .......Nowadays, it is commonly believed that ....... will provides them with many opportunities, but I wonder that people who ........ are facing more challenges. 2Against the backdrop of an era characterized with opportunities, the living pressures of people has been improved. Nowadays, every individual who....... faces various challenges. 中间: 1There are numerous challenges of ......, and I would explore only three challenges here. The first challenge is that ...... The second one is that the ...... The last one is that...... 2As far as I am concerned, there are three main challenges of....... First of all,...... In addition,...... At last but not least,...... 结尾： 1Based on the points discussed above, we may reasonably draw the conclusion that there are many challenges of......Dealing with the challenges is not different from conquering a great mountain; both of us require determination, courage, and perseverance. 2 All in all, there is no doubt that people who...... are in front of many challenges. It is the critical time that the government/the society/ we took effective actions to cope with these challenges.
