    ✅作业

    造句:Hefei has kept a low profile for many years. However, Hefei has seen unprecedented growth in its research output and scientific impact in recent years.

    “Beijing, the political centre of China for nearly a millennia, has seen unprecedented growth in its research output, scientific impact and technological innovation in the last 15 years. And the momentum shows no signs of abating.”

    1. 认识这个词(基础篇)

    词:see

    英英释义:if a place or a period of time sees an event, the event happens in that place or during that time
    例句:The last decade saw many technological advances, and the next few years will see more.

    2. 体会这个词 (进阶篇)

    “see”是看见的意思,不过也经常可以用来表示“目睹” “见证“,这时它的主语除了是人和物以外,还经常可以是时间或是地点,表示该时或该地发生什么事。这是英语中一种拟人化的修辞手法,也是我们不够熟悉、想不到会这样用的常见用法。

    我们经常可以用 see 代替 witness。比如国庆假期间,许多人都出门旅游,这时我们就可以说:

    The National Day holiday, or the Golden Week, saw a significant surge in tourism.

    比如《中国好声音》中有许多非常出色的歌手,我们就可以说:

    Sing! China has seen some very talented singers.

    我们在描述图表时就可以用 see 表示数据的变化。最新一期的《经济学人》中在报道通用电气公司时也用到了saw:

    That made for a welcome change from Jeffrey Immelt, his predecessor, whose 16-year tenure saw a dramatic decline in GE’s performance and profitability.

    3. 从认识到会用(作业)

    1)翻译下面的句子:苹果公司在今年 9 月发布了新产品。

    (参考翻译:This September saw the launch of Apple’s new products.)

    2)结合自己的生活、学习、工作、兴趣等,先想象在什么语境下会用到这个表达,然后再进行造句。
