【注】有用表达:humble a. 不大的,没有特别之处的,如:a humble farmhouse 小农舍;[地道表达] 恰当地举例。


122. Beyond the obvious economic benefits are the incalculable human ones. Women who work are likelier to invest more in their children’s upbringing, and to have more say over how they lead their lives.


【译】除了获得显而易见的经济收入,(职业女性)还有无法估量的人权方面的益处。职业女性更可能在抚养孩子上投入更多,且对如何生活更有话语权。

【注】有用表达:the obvious economic benefits 显而易见的经济收入;incalculable a. 无法计算的;invest more in the children’s upbringing 对抚养孩子投入更多;have more say over … 对…更有话语权。[地道表达] 前后呼应。


123. Of all the plastic produced since the 1950s, less than 10% has been recycled. The vast majority ends up being dumped, most of it in landfill. Some is left to litter the natural environment, where it can get into rivers and wash out into the sea. 


【译】自从20世纪50年代以来生产的塑料,被循环利用的不到10%,绝大多数都被扔掉了,而大部分被扔到垃圾填埋场,有一些被丢到大自然中,然后掉到河里,冲到海里。

124. Notwithstanding important recent progress in developing renewable fuel sources, low fossil fuel prices could discourage further innovation in, and adoption of, cleaner energy technologies. The result would be higher emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. 


【译】尽管最近在开发可再生燃料资源上有了重大进步,但是化石燃料的低价格会阻碍洁净能源技术的进一步创新和采纳。结果,二氧化碳和其他温室气体的排放会增加。

【译】然而,如果化石燃料的价格持续走低,可再生能源的开发过程会很艰难。可再生能源只占全球主要能源消耗的一小部分,大部分还是化石燃料的消耗:煤和石油各占30%,天然气占25%。

【注】有用表达:a tax on ... is one easy way to put a price on ... 对...征税是让...付出代价的一个简单方法 [地道表达] 让步状语从句的恰当使用。
