Re: [題目] 必考單字600
※ 引述《anisakis (海獸)》之銘言：
: 書名：必考單字600
: 頁數：P1
: 題目：The sales associate gave his assurance that the missing keyboard
: would be replaced the next day.
: 疑問：The sales associate gave his assurance 這句怎麼翻譯?
: 不太懂associate gave意思
不是associate gave哦，這樣斷句稍微有誤，
其實應該看成是the sales associate，
這邊associate當名詞作「同事」解
所以翻譯是業務同事保證…
: 感謝!
: 書名：必考單字600
: 頁數：P1
: 題目：I felt obligated to finish the project even though I could have
: exercised my option to quit.
: 疑問：I could have exercised my option to quit 這句怎麼翻譯?
excercise有行使某項權力/權利之意，所以exercise one's option是指行使其選擇權，
而could have exercised這裡用到了與過去事實相反的假設語氣，
所以後半句的翻譯是「雖然我原本可選擇一走了之」
