2. 体会这个词 (进阶篇)
上周我们学习了“-ridden”,它常接有负向含义的名词,表示“充斥着xx”。今天我们学习一个和它类似的后缀“-rich”,和名词搭配表示“富含xx”。我们通过一些例子掌握它的用法。
比如为了发展新能源和化解产能过剩,许多煤资源丰富的地区关掉了许多煤矿:
Manycoal-richregions have increasingly closed mines to accelerate the shift to cleaner energy and cut overcapacity.
有人说常吃富含维生素 C 的食物可以降低得一些癌症的风险:
It is said that consumingvitamin C-richfoods regularly can lower the risk of some cancers.
《经济学人》中也经常用到 -rich,比如:
Power cuts inoil-richbut inflation-ravaged Venezuela have further reduced its capacity to pump oil.(委内瑞拉有丰富的石油资源,于是这里用到了 oil-rich)
It, too, worsens as food prices rise: families switch from costly,nutrient-rich, fruit, vegetables and meat to cheaper, nutrient-poor staples.(这句话讲的是食品价格上涨后的问题,这里的 nutrient-rich 和 nutrient-poor 相对应)
3. 从认识到会用(作业)
1)翻译下面的句子: 孕妇应该吃富含蛋白质的食物。
(参考翻译:Pregnant women are advised to eat protein-rich foods. 或者 It’s crucial to consume a protein-rich diet during pregnancy.)
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:If you want to lose weight,you'd better not eat the fat-rich foods.
场景:如果你想减肥,最好不要吃脂肪含量很高的食物。
