Answer 1

分析 So excited was she that she failed to fall asleep the whole night when she learned she had been admitted to the university she had been dreaming of for a long time．

解答 答案：So excited was she that she failed to fall asleep the whole night when she learned she had been admitted to the university she had been dreaming of for a long time．
句意表达的是过去的事实，要用一般过去时态．题干给了提示短语so…that…表示如此…以致…，引导结果状语从句；梦寐以求dream of sth for a long time；被大学录取be admitted to the university；激动excited；彻夜未眠fail to fall asleep the whole night．

点评 翻译题是考查英语的运用能力．解题时，先要标出关键短语，选用最好的表达短语或词汇；然后要注意句子结构，根据提示或句子内容选用复合句或简单句来表示；最后，要注意句子的时态．平时，要多做翻译练习，注意体会英汉的差异，这样才能写出好的译文．
