标题[英中/中英] fortune和进展 (个人笔记)
时间Fri Jun 8 00:04:59 2012
(纯粹个人笔记)
: 多益官方手册第一本第一回中
: OG 1 第196-200题的双篇阅读第一篇第三段
: Industry analysts remain skeptical that she can turn around
: the company's ailing fortunes.
: OG1的中文翻译:
: 对於Brown 博士是否能重整Randolph 公司日益艰困的财务状况,
: 业界分析师仍抱持怀疑的态度。
: 整篇原文是:
(原文恕删)
: Industry analysts remain skeptical that she can turn
: around the company's ailing fortunes. After her
: selection was announced, company stock
: dropped 1.2 percent in one afternoon.
(个人解读)
公司最重要的应该是财务状况,营运不佳、赚不赚钱都是大问题。
更换执行长是因为财务(或营运)问题,应该不是因为权力斗争吧?
(句末提到公司股价,显然和财务有关,分析师不是分析公司赚不赚钱吗?)
(提问)
一、fortune在本文中的"单字解释"?
二、fortune、ailing fortunes在本文中,根据上下文所代表的"含意"?
三、the fortunes of war的意思? (偏离主题?)
