howtimeflies(goodolddays)

1. She apparently lost control of the vehicle and struck a light standard.

I didn't understand "struck a light standard" ,and the foreigner told me it means " triffic light" .

2.Today's temperature is forecast to reach a high of 6 C, smashing the record of 3.3C set in 1963.

I thought "forecast" is 拼写错误（typot ?). It should be "forecasted". she could not explain it clearly for me ,but insisted it is right. Later, I learn myself by looking up the dictionary. Noing wrong with the newspaper.

工作学习 / English / 请高手翻译一下这句话（报纸上的），尤其解释“however" and "as" 。我百思不得其解。问老外，她说"as " 就是"because". 那“however "起啥作用？ -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962527@0)

能否贴上上下文？我来试试。 -cx57(冷月); 2003-1-7 (#962551@0)
The above-freezing temperatures will be short-lived, however, as the temperature will drop throughout the day tomorrow, hitting -7 C Thursday and -12 C on Friday. -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962552@0)

Yes, "as" =="because" “however”，承上启下起转折的作用。注意however前后有逗号。供参考。 -cx57(冷月); 2003-1-7 (#962575@0)

Ok. How to translate "however"? -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962595@0)

状语后置: 曾经(相)好的意思. -patpat(乃胡侃而已); 2003-1-7 (#962610@0)

Kieng, 26, was charged with drug trafficing last August after police found $300 worth of crack cocaine in the pocket of a seven-year-old boy.

what 's meaning the word "crack"?

"crack cocaine" is a kind of purified cocaine in pellet form. -diver(diver); 2003-1-7 (#962751@0)

You are very knowledgeable about drug . Does it taste good ? I'm kidding. Thank you . -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962801@0)

翻译是一桩很难的事，这里译作”然而“较勉强。我赞成索性什么都不翻较好。你的意思呢？ -cx57(冷月); 2003-1-7 (#962627@0)

I agree with you. Probably something is wrong with the newspaper. the foreigner seemed to say so. -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962690@0)

往前看, DX. -patpat(乃胡侃而已); 2003-1-7 (#962593@0)

Most of time, 'however'=but -kramna(射小郁); 2003-1-7 (#962620@0)

谢谢! HERE IS A QUOTE OF TODAY IN RETURN: -patpat(乃胡侃而已); 2003-1-7 {133} (#962642@0)
(However), examinations are formidable even to the best prepared, for even the greatest fool may ask more than the wisest can answer.

It is a little bit hard for me to understand it .I am grateful if you could translate into chinese. -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962814@0)

(然而),,即使对于准备很充分的人来说,考试也还是很难应付的.因为,甚至是笨蛋也有可能问出最聪明的人回答不出的问题. -darkeyes(darkeyes); 2003-1-7 (#962860@0)

thx bailing me out of hot water. -patpat(乃胡侃而已); 2003-1-7 (#962873@0)

You kill me. Thank Patpat and darkeyes very much. Hope to meet you guys here tomorrow . -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962896@0)

However, the above ...., because .... -maile(FinchEast); 2003-1-7 (#962732@0)

到现在为止我才彻底明白这个英语表达。在看了darkeyes 的解释，又琢磨了一下patpat的quote，再回头看你的帖子。其实你早已回答，我反应太慢。见谅！ -howtimeflies(goodolddays); 2003-1-7 (#962954@0)
