1）翻译下面的句子：

（参考翻译：Despite its proximity to Beijing, the capital city, Tianjin does not seem to have benefited much economically from it. 或It seems (that) Tianjin's economy has not benefited enormously from its close proximity to Beijing, the capital city.）

2）结合自己的生活、学习、工作、兴趣等，想象在什么语境下会用到这个表达。先简要描述这个场景，再造句。 

例子：
