核心问题

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:

  1. We chose to go by train. 我们决定乘火车去。

  2. She did not choose to sit at the back. 她不喜欢坐在后边。

  3. 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。

请注意下面英语试题中 choose to live 的用法: Some people think it is ____ that we choose to live in the village. A. good B. interesting C. comfortable D. strange(上海会考,92-42)
