譯文 找到石油是一回事,抽出石油并把它輸往工業(yè)中心又是另一回事。
點睛 locate在此處意為“查找”。one通常與another搭配使用,表示“一個……另一個……”;one還可以跟another連在一起組成短語one another,意為“互相”。如:
The members of the team support one another. 隊員們相互支持。
考點歸納 本句包含了一個重要句型:It is one thing to..., but it is quite another to意為“……是一回事,……又是另一回事”。如:
It is one thing to say, but it is quite another to do. 說是一回事,做又是另一回事。
與此類似的表達還有on the one hand...;on the other hand...(一方面……,另一方面……)。如:
On the one hand, I love the freedom of being single; on the other hand, the idea of being married and having a family is very attractive. 一方面,我熱愛自由的單身生活;另一方面,結(jié)婚成家的念頭對我也很有吸引力。
