尽管那样

And you don'thave to be a Freemason to enjoy it (although it wouldn't hurt).

当然，你不必非在阅读中把自己想象成一名"共济会会员"，尽管说那样做也无伤大雅。

Although the upper reaches of a freestone stream may be spring-fed, the vast majority of its flow comes from run-off or tributaries.

尽管这种河段可是是spring-fed，最主要的径流来自run-off和支流，快速流动的河水限制了杂草和其他植被的生长，而形成了这种＂free stone＂河底，这种河段的水生昆虫不如spring creek那样多，所以鳟鱼比较少，但是不不乏机会主义者。

She could still do all the work she'd ever done － keep the house going, plant and weed the garden, drive the truck when needed － though maybe she wasn't as speedy at some tasks, as she once was.

她象过去一样能干--忙家务，在花园里种花、除草，开着拖拉机帮忙干农活--尽管有些事情她做起来不如以前那样利索。

Such birds do us good, though we no longer take omens from their flight on this side and that; and even the most superstitious villagers no longer take off their hats to the magpie and wish it good-morning

这类鸟对于我们有好处，尽管我们不再从它这样或那样的飞行中寻找预兆，甚至最迷信的村民也不再向喜鹊脱帽致敬，希望有一个好兆头。

More often it is grim: almost everyone, it turns out, was informing on the Martons, from neighbours to the nanny. Through it all, her father baffled his persecutors, who could not believe that the suave, stylish polyglot was just what he claimed to be: a hard-living, hard-playing newsman. His undoing came when a traitor in the American embassy reported that he had lent to officials there a copy of an official document, the state budget. Not exactly a secret, but pretext enough to send him to be broken in the AVO's dungeons.

这常常是无情的：事实证明几乎所有的人，从邻居到保姆，都对Marton一家进行了揭发，自始至终，她的父亲都反击了迫害者，这些迫害者难以相信这位礼貌又有风度地通晓多国语言的人如他所声称的那样：一位艰难生活、艰难工作的报人，当一位美国大使馆的叛徒揭发他将一份有关政府预算的政府文件的副本借给这里的官员时，他的不幸到来了，尽管这份文件不能确切的算作秘密，但是这足以成为将他送入AVO的地牢遭受折磨的借口。

Meanwhile, tonight's moon isn't the official Harvest Moon, although many will call it by that name.

同时，今晚的明月不是真正的丰收月，尽管有很多人会依然那样称呼它。

Yet, for all the brave talk, there is a self-destructive streak in Russia which can turn a drama into a crisis in spectacular fashion—as was vividly demonstrated during its 1998 default.

尽管存在这些勇气可嘉的言论，但俄罗斯却显示出一种自我毁灭的特性。这会让一场闹剧以一种难以置信的方式转变成一场危机——就正如在1998年俄罗斯债务违约展示的那样。

As she put it in The Common Reader, It is safe to say that not a s ingle law has been framed or one stone set upon another because of any thing Chaucer said or wrote; and yet, as we read him, we are absorbing morality at every pore.

" (5-)就像她在《致普通读者》一书中所表达的那样，"尽管可以毫无疑问的说，没有任何法律被指定出来，也没有任何高楼大厦被建立起来是因为乔叟说了什么或者写了什么；然而，当我们读它的书的时候，我们身上每一个毛孔都充满了道德。

This is the swine flu or, as the federal government likes to call it, confusingly but inoffensively, the H1N1 strain.

这就是猪流感，或者就像联邦政府愿意称呼的那样，H1N1株，尽管有些令人迷惑但是没有害处。

However disparate their manifestations, both share a sense of inwardness and introspection.

然而，尽管艺术表现上是这样不同，二人作品内的自省及感怀却又那样相近。

I think he's learned how to approach hitters....

Johhny Damon说，『他已是最好的了，再没有人能够比他做的更好，我想他的球技已经完全成熟了，而且他也已经学会了如何去对付和压迫各种打击者。。。。。。

In effect, an 18 foot King Cobra could actually look down onto the average human being.

际上，一个18尺眼镜蛇王其实可以俯视到的平均人。
