跟读心得日记:
1、He found the main design challenge was the location of the site in an area that had no neighbouring buildings of any importance.(C11 Test2 Par4第12句)
neighbour这个词虽然有时也做形容词,但其实很少用,主体上还是以名词和动词为主,如果想要表达临近的,邻居的,还是用neighbouring比较常见。
这句话又用到了“名词 + of + importance”的结构,来表示important + 名词的意思。
2、He wanted to give people a feeling of suspense as they see the building first from a distance, and then close up, and the initial impression he wanted to create from the shape of the building as a whole was that of a box(C11 Test2 Par4第17句)
close up分开写是走进,凑近的意思,但是close-up则表示摄影摄像事的特写或特写镜头的意思
be that of sth, 表示如同。。。一样的意思,有点类似于just like sth.
3、This might sound off-putting, but it supports Harrison's concept of the building that the person approaching is intrigued and wonders what willbe inside.(C11 Test2 Par4第19句)
off-putting, 表示令人不快的,倒胃口的,或令人望而却步的等意思
intrigue这个词既可以做名词表示密谋,阴谋或者复杂的故事情节;同时也可以做动词表示密谋害某人,或者引起。。。兴趣
