问题描述:
----Do you know what Miss Black does for a living?----I have no idea at all.I think she could be n
----Do you know what Miss Black does for a living?----I have no idea at all.I think she could be ____but a singer.
A anything B nothing
我觉得这两个选项都翻译得过去,为什么要选A呢,请具体解答,不要笼统
选anything翻译得话就是 她可以做任何事除了当歌手
选nothing翻译就是 她只能做歌手
nothing but=only anything but=not,为什么一定要选A呢
答
语法上两个都对,但意思上只有A能行。
--你知道Miss Black是做什么的吗?
--不知道。我觉得除了歌手,别的她都可能是。
如果要回答nothing but a singer的话,问句应该这样问:
--Do you know what Miss Black can do for a living?
答
C. nothing
nothing but ...固定短语,不过是。。。
因为前面问说 你知道她做什么呢? 回答是 不知道、但是我想她只能做歌手
逻辑问题把、
答
从前后文理解啊,前面说,I have no idea at all,他不知道她的职业.
你用nothing but a singer 不就是说她只能是个歌手了么?也就是说他认为“她是个歌手”,那就前后矛盾了.
