desired译为期望,为什么加be解释反了呢,为什么选A下选B, Clearly there is much to be desired _____ it comes to the quality of teachers and their teaching methods. A.when B.since C.until D.although
when it comes to, 当谈及.的时候,可以当固定句式记忆. 其实这句话分割成最简单的形式就是the quality has much to be desired. 就是质量有待提升的意思. 然而这里只是变得复杂一些,当谈及教师和他们的教学模式的质量时,明显有很多(改变/提升)被期望.意译时,就是当谈及教师和他们的教学模式的质量时,很明显有很多东西需要改变. be是表示被动语态,much is desired in the quality of the teachers and their teaching methods. 这样就显得很清楚了.
