adj.
吃顿像样的(proper)饭
proper原指“属于自己,专属于什么”;后引申为“适合的,正确的”的含义。因此,当描述“适合某种情况”的时候都可用这个词语。常翻译成“适当的,恰当的,正确的,像样的”等意思。词组搭配:a proper meal,一顿像样的饭;a proper job,一份像样的工作;properly fund the project,为项目提供适当资金;properly enforce the regulation,恰当执行规定。
1 教育
谈到义务教育时,若想表达:人们常说,你若想在生活中获得成功就要接受良好的教育。
英语可以表述为:It is often said that if you want to succeed in life, you need a proper education .
2 健康
谈到垃圾食品时,若想表达:提高健康教育并不能完全解决问题,因为它忽略了造成不良饮食习惯更加广泛的社会因素。比如,很多人吃快餐是因为他们的生活方式导致他们没有时间坐下来吃顿像样的饭。
英语可以表述为:Better health education, however, is not a complete answer as it ignores the wider social factors that cause people to eat unhealthily. For instance, many people eat fast food because they have a lifestyle that means they do not have time to sit down to a proper meal .
3 环境
谈到气候变化时,若想表达:虽然政府对减少气候变化负有主要责任,但个人也可以发挥作用。各国领导人需要相互合作,为风能、太阳能等可再生能源研究提供适当的资金支持,以及逐渐淘汰那些煤气发电站。同时,他们还要确保禁止乱砍乱伐的规定能够恰当地执行。而消费者也可以发挥作用,他们可以对房屋适当绝缘以及尽可能使用太阳板以减少能源的需求和浪费。这些措施都可以限制大气层中二氧化碳的含量,从而减少温室效应。
英语可以表述为:While governments must take prime responsibility for reducing climate change, individuals too can play a part. Political leaders across the globe need to cooperate so that research into renewable forms of energy such as wind and solar power is properly funded and the use of coal and gas in power stations is phased out. They must also of course ensure that regulations against logging are properly enforced . Consumers of energy can help by insulating their homes properly and using solar panels where possible so that less energy is required and wasted. These actions should limit the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and so reduce the greenhouse effect.
