The Everlasting Mercy 词条


The work that first made Masefield famous, it shocked early 20th century British sensibilities with its direct, honest, and therefore often harsh language, as the life of protagonist violent, drunken womanizer Saul Kane is laid out in detail.

这里应该写为:
…, as the life of the protagonist, the violent, drunken womanizer Saul Kane, is laid out in detail.
或者
…, as the life of Saul Kane, the protagonist who is a violent, drunken womanizer, is laid out in detail.

King James Version 词条

The 80 books of the King James Version include 39 books of the Old Testament, an intertestamental section containing 14 books of what Protestants consider the Apocrypha, and the 27 books of the New Testament.

Shahnameh 词条

… regarded as a literary masterpiece, and definitive of the ethno-national cultural identity of Iran.

definitive在这里显然错误,句子不如改为:

We should ask that, here given the time, why should we use past tense on verbs!!!That’s useless, only for being consistent with old rules!

你知道底下这两个网站吗?把你的见解贴过去,问问英语母语者的想法(一题贴一篇文章。一题挑一个网站贴就好,不要一题两边同时贴,他们不喜欢这样),然后把发问网址回贴给我们,这样我佩服你 :smile:

相信比自己闭门造车好多了。

我的经验是,有时候我认为他们写错了,但发问后才知道,是自己没看明白。

Greene’s Groats-Worth of Wit 词条

The pamphlet continues with further exhortations to repentance followed by an allegory about a grasshopper and an ant, the former representing fecklessness, the latter representing thrift.

这里所谓的 “allegory” 实际是《伊索寓言》中的《蚂蚱和蚂蚁》。蚂蚱因夏天时歌舞升平肆意挥霍,导致无粮过冬,随即去找勤俭的蚂蚁借粮。故事并不是表现 "grasshopper“ 的 feckless。

这句话最好改为:
… followed by an allegory, which is derived from a famous fable of Aesop about a spendthrift grasshopper begging for food from a thrifty ant to survive the upcoming winter.
