题目
I have worries that my audience may find my speech boring and fall asleep.
I have worries that my audience may find my speech boring and fall asleep.
题目解答
答案
原句中“have worries that...”结构不符合习惯用法,应将“worries”改为“worry”,使句子变为“I worry that...”。此修改使句子更简洁自然,同时保留原意。完整句子为:
"I worry that my audience may find my speech boring and fall asleep."
答案:I worry that my audience may find my speech boring and fall asleep.
解析
本题考查英语中表达“担心”这一含义的习惯用法。解题思路是判断原句中“have worries that...”这种表达是否符合英语的习惯用法,若不符合则找出正确的表达方式。
在英语里,“have worries that...”并非常用的表达“担心”的结构,而“I worry that...”是更简洁、自然且常用的表达“担心某事”的方式。原句想要表达“我担心我的听众可能会觉得我的演讲很无聊然后睡着”,使用“I worry that...”能更好地传达这个意思,同时使句子更符合英语的表达习惯。
