【句型18】Chickens slaughtered in the United States, claim officials in
Brussels, are not fit to grace European tables.(Lesson 8)
【译文】布鲁塞尔的官员说,在美国屠宰的鸡不适于装点欧洲的餐桌。
【讲解】slaughtered in the United States为过去分词短语,作定语,修饰chickens。此句也可以写成Officials
in Brussels say that chickens slaughtered in the United States are not fit to
grace European tables. 原文的写法是为了凸显chickens slaughtered in the United
States。本句和该课第二句是新闻英语中的常见句型:
【原文】No, say the American: our fowl are fine, we simply clean them in a
different way.
