特朗普限制性的移民政策正在让很多移民企业家离开美国。其实美国很多优秀的企业家都是移民。特斯拉的老总马斯克也是移民.从南非到加拿大再到美国。

今天的句子:

As immigration reform remains at a standstill, and the Trump administration eyes even more restrictionist immigration policies, many in Silicon Valley are worried the United States is losing its competitive advantage—just what they were hoping to guard against with a start-up visa. 

参考译文:因为移民改革陷入僵局,而且特朗普政府甚至着眼于更具有限制性的移民政策,硅谷很多人士就担心美国会丢掉竞争优势。而且,他们恰恰是希望用创业签证来防范美国竞争优势的丢失。

思考题:

According to Silicon Valley, the start-up visa can bring the United States the competitive edge.

词汇突破:

1. restrictionist immigration policies:限制主义者的移民政策

2. remain at a standstill: 陷入僵局

3. Trump administration:特朗普政府

4. eye: 动词(着眼于)

5. many 很多人

6. losing its competitive advantage:真在丢掉其竞争优势

7. guard against A with B: 用B来防范A

8. start-up visa:创业签证

9. what= something that 

切分:

1.As immigration reform remains at a standstill, and the Trump administration eyes even more restrictionist immigration policies,

2. many in Silicon Valley are worried the United States is losing its competitive advantage—

3.just what they were hoping to guard against with a start-up visa.

其中:what= something that (something = that) 我们之前讲过what的用法!

(something= the United States is losing its competitive advantage)

再切分:They were hoping to guard against that with a start-up visa.

(他们希望)

思考题:

According to Silicon Valley, the start-up visa can bring the United States the competitive edge.

硅谷的很多人认为=硅谷认为

(有人会问硅谷很多人就等于硅谷吗?等于!)

(你去看一下2000年日本人的文章,第一题题干说西方人,文章说的美国和欧洲;用人和区域完美的互换!)

创业签证能防范美国竞争优势的丢失。

在很多时候时可以等于:创业签证能为美国带来竞争优势。

所以昨天的思考题是正确的。

当然如果四个选项中还有一个选项:

B:The start-up visa can prevent the United states from losing the competitive  edge.

那么选项B就是最佳选项了。所以如果昨天有同学是想到了B选项而觉得思考题是错误的,那你就是对了的。但是如果是因为其他情况而认为思考题是错误的,那你就是真错了。

怎么样!够体贴了吧!!!

明天的句子:

Since his election last May, French President Emmanuel Macron has tried to, and maybe believed he could, bend Donald Trump’s convictions. Macron sought to turn the U.S. president away from nationalism, protectionism, and climate-change skepticism and toward his own vision of a world in which strong, sovereign nations collaborate to find multilateral solutions to transnational problems. 

思考题:

The Trump is for the idea of multilateralism.
