were to be 的意思是
These project were to be joint efforts between NASA and the European Speace.
你好,请问这个句子中的 were to be 的意思是,efforts不是个名词吗,前面的to be是非谓语动词吗?
These projects were to be joint efforts between NASA and the European Speace.
be to do ... 结构,是“以后时”的一种。其基本义是“将要”,可以参考语境适合扩展为如下几种含义:
1、表示“计划”或“安排”。
2、表示“命令”。一般译为“需要”或“不准”。
3、表示“可能性”。
4、表示“意图”或“计划”。一般译为“想要”。
5、表示“应该”。
6、表示“不可防止”或“注定发生”,意为“一定”。
7、表示“期待”。
8、表示与以后不符或相反的“假设”。
除此之外,本句中的 be 不表示“是”,由于“项目” 和 “一同努力” 之间,不可以划等号,不可以用“是” 去理解和翻译。这里, be 的意思实质是“花费;需要;值得” 之意。
翻译如下:
These projects were to be joint efforts between NASA and the European Speace.
这类项目将需要美国宇航局和欧洲航天局的一同努力。
- were to be 的意思是
- These project were to be joint efforts between NASA and the European Speace.
