He waited until the volcano became quiet and he was able to return two days later.
新概念第二册67课,这句如果把and拆开,请问如何拆,其实我是没有搞明白until和and的关系,
拆法一:
He waited until the volcano became quiet.
He waited until he was able to return two days later.
拆法二:
He waited until the volcano became quiet.
He was able to return two days later.//如果这么拆,这句怎么翻译呢?
请问哪种拆法是对的,或都不对,最好简单说下理由
从句意上来理解的话拆法二比较合适,译为:他等着直到火山平息,两天后他就可以回去了
再问: 结合原课文上下文,他是回到火山口,不是回到安全的地方
再答: 那这样来看的话就应该是拆法一了,因为他等待的原因一是躲避岩浆,一是再返回观测
再问: 我想搞清楚and的用法,这里用and竟然省略了一个until,这样理解对吗
再答: 可以的 英语中当两简单句用连词连接,如果两句主语、谓语相同,即可省略后一句的主语谓语(不过不省略也可)
