来了这么久都没有参加过这个活动,现在来尝试一下
答案是D
理由是:When it comes to the slowing economy, Ellen Spero isn\'t biting her nails just yet. But the 47-year-old manicurist isn\'t cutting, filling or polishing as many nails as she\'d like to, either.
slowing economy表示经济停滞或者增长缓慢,显然是不好的phenomenon,后面出现了一个否定句, not...yet可知她并没有真正跨台.后面的一句进而说明虽然并没有跨台,但情况也好不到哪里去.
翻译:
①When it comes to the slowing economy, Ellen Spero isn\'t biting her nails just yet. But the 47-year-old manicurist isn\'t cutting, filling or polishing as many nails as she\'d like to, either.
当经济不景气的时候, Ellen Spero并没有完全跨台(并没有咬她的指甲).但是47岁的修甲师并没有修剪,修护或者磨光与她过去所期待的业务数量.
②I provide a service that people can do without when they\'re concerned about saving some dollars.
我所提供的服务是在人们没有认为在这项服务消费可以省一些钱的时候才做的. |
