What subject did Jim choose? He chose to talk about English names.
我不知道该如何翻译 He chose to talk... 请赐教。
词典解答
choose 不仅仅作“选择”解,还可作“决定”(decide)、“喜欢”(like, prefer)解。例如:
-
We chose to go by train. 我们决定乘火车去。
-
She did not choose to sit at the back. 她不喜欢坐在后边。
-
He did not choose to help me. 他不愿意帮助我。
[试译]吉姆选择了什么题目呢?他决定谈一谈英国人的名字。
