　　1. were plunged into a dire suffering

　　解析：本題考查考生基本詞匯量和短語(yǔ)的掌握情況。"水深火熱"在英文中沒(méi)有一個(gè)對(duì)等詞，所以要采用意譯法�？梢越邮艿淖g法有：a dire suffering，an abyss of suffering，extreme misery。Be plunged into表示"使......陷入，使......遭受"，如：plunge a country into war(使一個(gè)國(guó)家陷入戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng));plunge sb. into deep sorrow(使某人陷入深深的悲痛之中)。另外，前半句中careworn意為"受折磨的，飽經(jīng)憂(yōu)患的"。

　　2. theory be combined with practice

　　解析：be combined with...是固定搭配，意為"與......相結(jié)合"。Be connected with是指"將......連起來(lái)"，在含義上有所差別。其次，句首用了We think it most important that句型，暗示從句要用虛擬語(yǔ)氣，should可以省略。

　　3. Rain or shine

　　解析：本題考查固定用法"不論......"，英語(yǔ)用...or...來(lái)表達(dá)。如：Winter or summer，that lady always wears a long black gown.(不論夏冬，那個(gè)老婦人總是穿一身黑色長(zhǎng)袍。)類(lèi)似的表達(dá)還有：better or worse，good or evil，sink or swim，men or women，old or young。

　　4. no other than the man

　　解析：本題考查采用反譯法翻譯，以加強(qiáng)語(yǔ)氣，取得較好的修辭效果。No other than強(qiáng)調(diào)了那個(gè)人就是我們要找的。這句話(huà)也可以譯成This is just the man we are looking for，但強(qiáng)調(diào)的語(yǔ)氣就顯得要弱一些。此外，no other than要和other than區(qū)別開(kāi)來(lái)。如：There's nobody here other than me.(這里除了我沒(méi)別人。)

　　5. three to five times that of ordinary households

　　解析：本題考查數(shù)的表達(dá)�？忌�要學(xué)會(huì)用"倍數(shù)+the size (length,volume) of..."，"...倍數(shù)+that of (what it was)..."的句型進(jìn)行倍數(shù)的表達(dá)。Household是個(gè)集合詞，表示家庭，如：average household(中等家庭);multiperson household(多人口家庭);peasant household(農(nóng)戶(hù))。"家務(wù)"叫做household affairs。

　　6. I didn't buy a good seat

　　解析：題中"好票"是一個(gè)干擾項(xiàng)，是典型的漢語(yǔ)表達(dá)。"沒(méi)有買(mǎi)到一張好票"實(shí)際上是說(shuō)"沒(méi)有買(mǎi)到好座位"，因此不能譯成I didn't buy a good ticket。
