Your Weekly English Digest! 為什麼要學中文,你的梗底加啦!
學習中文很重要,這件事情大家可能都同意,但是學中文的目的與意義是什麼?用英文來表達可能說不出個所以然。
論述型的文章目的在於清楚將自己的看法表達出來,並且透過強而有力的例證去支持觀點,過程要以合乎邏輯且層次分明的方式說服他人。這篇刊登於The Economist Intelligent Life這個軟性主題的雙月刊大哉問The Big Question單元的文章,作者舉出了下面幾個學習中文的裡由,大家有沒有找到梗呢?
Why is Chinese the best language to learn?
1. China is the most populous nation on Earth.
2. China's economy is going to be the biggest in the world.
3. learn Chinese not to impress others but to seriously understand the country and its culture.
想請問一下教練:
回覆刪除The Chinese economy is likely to continue to outpace the
rich world’s for decades to come, tilting the balance of
economic power.
the rich world’s指的是世界的經濟吧?!
可以直接把後面的名詞拿掉啊?
我是知道有hers和mine這種用法,
但是這種上文做法我倒沒有印象。(孤陋寡聞Q.Q)
Hi世興,
回覆刪除我覺得作者要說的是The Chinese economy is likely to continue to outpace the
rich world’s (economy) for decades to come...
坦白說如果是我,我不會把後面的名詞拿掉,這種用法口說可以接受,但是寫作其實不鼓勵。不過這篇文章還是有很多可讀性,所以我們只要學人家好的地方,其他的就忽略吧。
