16.【2018年全国I卷·七选五】
F. So it pays to be sure, because you want to get it right the first time
【参考译文】所以(对此做到)心中有数大有好处,因为咱们都希望这件事一次就做好/成功。(意思是大家都希望这种活儿能一步到位,谁都不希望拖拖拉拉甚至是返工。)
【参考解析】注意两个有用的结构:
(1) It pays to do sth 做某事有所值/有回报/很划算 这里的pay与我们人教选修8学的pay off意义相同,= to be worth the effort to do sth。
It pays (=it is worth the effort) to study the note after every class.每次课后都学习一下笔记对你会有好处的。
It never pays to take risks where human safety is concerned.凡是涉及人身安全时,冒险决不会有什么好处。
(2) do/get it right the first time 一次就做好/做成/成功
So we'd better get it right the first time. 所以我们最好一次成功。
This means that in
(3) 除此以外,我们可能还应留意一下句首的so,其在这里位于整篇文章的末尾以因果关系起到总结收尾的语篇功能。无独有偶,本卷的语法填空的最后一句话同样是以这种方式收尾全文:
If you are time poor, you need run for only half the time to get the same benefits as other sports, so perhaps we should all give ___70___ a try.
