(2)The couple dont have much money to spend on their foreign trip.
那对夫妇出国旅行的钱不够用。
The couple dont have to spend much money on their foreign trip.
那对夫妇出国旅行不必多用钱。
在这一组里,第一句说钱不够用;第二句却说不必多用钱。没有钱可花和有钱不必多花,呈强烈对照,词序的影响,看出来了吧!
(3) The committee as a whole pointed out that the world economic situation had improved.
全部的委员都指出世界经济局势有所进展。
The committee pointed out that the world economic situation as a whole had improved.
委员指出整体的经济局势有所进展。
第一句指的是全部的委员;第二句却影射整体的经济局势。同样一个片语,所指有所不同。
(4) In vain did David try to stop the job from being done.
大卫试图阻止在进行中的工作没有结果。
David tried to stop the job from being done in vain.
大卫试图阻止没有结果的进行中的工作。
第一句里的in vain(无结果)指的是大卫的行动;第二句里的不是指人的行动,而是指在进行中的工作。
