109. I also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories.
譯文
我也知道，要維護(hù)從前的成功所帶來的聲望需要承受多么大的壓力。
點(diǎn)睛
本句的主干是I know the pressures。“pressure＋of＋動(dòng)名詞”是一種常用結(jié)構(gòu)，表示“……的壓力”。
live up to意為“達(dá)到預(yù)期標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，不辜負(fù)……的期望”。如：
We will never fail to live up to what our parents expect of us. 我們決不辜負(fù)父母對(duì)我們的期望。
reputation意為“聲譽(yù)，聲望”。previous的意思是“之前的”。
考點(diǎn)歸納
與of相關(guān)，且與動(dòng)名詞連用的常用句式。
“idea/method/habit/purpose＋of＋動(dòng)名詞”，表示“……的想法／方法／習(xí)慣／目的”。如：
She has the bad habit of reading in bed. 她有躺在床上看書的壞習(xí)慣。
“way/pleasure/time/chance/plan/power/pressure＋of＋動(dòng)名詞”，該種形式等同于“way/pleasure/time/chance/plan/power/pressure＋to＋動(dòng)詞原形”。如：
I had no chance of telling him the truth. 相當(dāng)于I had no chance to tell him the truth. 我沒有機(jī)會(huì)告訴他真相。
