问题描述:

he would have made it to work on time,but his car had a flat tire.
如何翻译这句,made

你好,我是英语师范学校毕业的,希望可以帮助到你!
首先,你需要理解这句话的意思:
如果不是因为他的车子爆胎了,他就能按时上班了。
made it是使某件事成功的意思。

他本意想按时上班,但他的车子的轮胎瘪了。

make it 是口语化的说法,就是想做成某事,it是形式宾语,真正想做的事的内容是后面的不定式,to work on time,所以句意是:
他原本是想准时到单位的,但是他车子遇到轮胎没气了(结果又是迟到了).
