查询词典 had rather

On returning to my room I found the wet patch had grown even larger and I had 2 rather old looking complimentary satsumas and an apple on the desk with a note from the manager apologising for the problem but that it had now been fixed!

回到房间，我却看见那块湿斑更大了，然后桌子上有送的两个很长时间的两个橘子和一个苹果，还有经理写的一个便条，为这问题跟我致歉，并说问题已经解决了！！

I mean above all the city of London, which we can see behind you is one of the most enormous financial services capital, that's really what lifts London, rather than doing business, making widgets is rather harder, isn't it?

伦敦城，我是指在你背后我们可以看到的这个城市，是一个庞大的金融服务首都，是这些抬高了伦敦在金融界的地位，而不是仅仅做生意。做小部件往往更难，不是吗？

Meanwhile, the concentration of Pb,Zn and other heavy metals is rather high in the oxidation zone and decreasesdownward to levels that are unbelievably low for Pb-Zn mine tailings. Theseobservations suggest that heavy metals should be re-immobilized by secondaryminerals, rather than primary minerals, in the oxidation zone, and could be leachedout from suboxic environment due to low rate oxidative dissolution which preventsthe precipitation of secondary minerals in significant amount. Thus, cover scenarioswhich establish a suboxic environment beneath the cover layer might not always beeffective in preventing heavy metal release from mine tailings.Sequential extraction studies indicate that, in addition to heavy metal leaching,oxidation of the mine tailings increased the mobility of residual Zn, and Cu, while Pb remains immobile due to the formation of anglesite (PbSO4). Using the seven-step extraction technique developed by Dold (J. Geochem. Explor., 2003, 80: 55-68), galena dissolves in significant amount at step 2 most probably due to the strong complexing of Pb2+ by acetate, while other metal sulfides dissolve at step 6, which suggest that this extraction technique could not be used to evaluate the mobility of lead in natural environment

重金属含量均低于新鲜尾矿，但以硬化层中的含量最高(Pb、Zn含量分别为0.47%和0.93%)，往下大幅度降低，表明尾矿风化过程中形成的次生矿物对Pb、Zn等重金属元素有较强的固定作用，而次氧化带的淋溶作用造成了金属元素的大量流失；(4)与新鲜尾矿相比，硬化层中铅的可迁移性大大降低，硬化层之下尾矿样品中铅的可迁移性也不同程度降低，这是由于硫化物氧化产生的硫酸根与尾矿中的铅反应形成铅矾(PbSO_4)的缘故；(5)氧化作用使尾矿中的zn、Cu等重金属的可迁移性不同程度地增大，其中对锌的可迁移性影响最大，铜的可迁移性与铁比较相似，铅则容易与硫化物氧化形成的SO_4~(2-)反应形成铅矾(PbSO_4)；(6)为了减少尾矿污染和修复矿山环境，人们提出了各种不同的尾矿覆盖方案，本文的研究结果表明，这些方法不一定能够有效地阻滞污染元素的迁移。

At one's worst Back 意群提示 Anyone, once involved in the river of love, be involved in the river of love / see one at always wishes his sweetheart to see him at his one's best / rather than best rather than at his worst.

新视野 -短语应用任何人一旦被卷入爱河，任何人一旦被卷入爱河，短总希望心上人看到自己语最差的时候；最差的时候；最糟最好的一面，最好的一面，而不是最逆译糕的时候糟的一面。

From inside information extending over a series of years Mr Bloom was rather inclined to poohpooh the suggestion as egregious balderdash for, pending that consummation devoutly to be or not to be wished for, he was fully cognisant of the fact that their neighbours across the channel, unless they were much bigger fools than he took them for, rather concealed their strength than the opposite.

204根据经年累月的内幕消息，布卢姆先生颇倾向于把上述见解看作是荒谬透顶的胡言乱语，嗤之以鼻；因为姑且不论他是否衷心企盼那样一种结局，对这一事实他总是了如指掌：除非海峡对岸的那些邻人远比他所设想的还要愚蠢，否则与其认为他们在显示实力，毋宁说是藏而不露。

"The reason we're losing natural capital is because it's free," says Ed Barbier, noting that we often think of conservation in terms of its costs rather than its value, and regard manufactured goods in terms of value rather than their environmental costs.

Ed Barbier认为我们经常从自然的损耗而不是它的价值来考虑保护环境，而对于制成品，我们考虑的是它的价值而非它对大自然的损耗。

And I'd rather be known for my career rather than my whereabouts.

我宁愿知道我的职业胜于我的下落。

Would you rather stay in the classroom?I'd rather have a cup of black tea.

在wish后的从句中，用一般过去时表示与现在事实相反的意思。

And I was so pleasantly musing over the two men mowing: the young one, with long legs in bright blue cotton trousers, and with bare black head, swinging so lightly downhill, and the other, in black trousers, rather stout in front , and wearing a new straw hat of the boater variety, coming rather stiffly after, crunching the end of his stroke with a certain violent effort.

可我刚刚还在愉快地望着两个割草人若有所思：年轻的一位生着一双长腿，穿着天蓝色的棉布裤子，黑黑的头发上没戴帽子，在山脚下轻松地来回摇摆着长镰；另一位穿着黑裤子，前面肚子挺壮实，戴着一顶新的硬边草帽，呆板板地走在后面，颇费力气地用镰刀尖嘎吱嘎吱地割着草。

Some of the great dystopias of the past – I think of John Brunner's novels from the early 1970s– centered on what was then the alleged nightmare of overpopulation; but that was a modernist nightmare, and what we confront today is perhaps not a dystopia either, but rather a certainty lived in a rather different way and with a properly postmodern ambivalence; which at any rate distinctly forecloses the possibility of progress or of solutions.

一些过去的伟大的反乌托邦作品——我想到20世纪70年代约翰·布鲁纳的小说——曾集中描写当时公认的人口过剩的梦魇；但那是现代主义的梦魇，而我们今天所面对的也许不是反乌托邦的，而是以一种相当不同的方式实际经历的东西，带有真正的后现代的模糊性；它俨然排除了进步或解决的可能。
