问题 Seldom can people find international news on the front page of this popular local newspaper.

选项 A、人们不会在这份地方报纸前几页上寻找重要的国际新闻。
B、人们很难在当地这份深受欢迎的报纸头版看到国际新闻。
C、人们从这份当地发行的报纸第一页上几乎找不到国际新闻。
D、人们阅读当地放心的报刊时从不查看头版刊登的国际新闻。

答案B

解析 本句是个倒装句.翻译要点有以下:seldom否定副词,表示“很少地,不常”;seldom置于句首表示强调时,助动词、情态动词、be动词与主语需要部分倒装。例如:Seldom had I seen such large apples. (我很少看到这么大的苹果。)C项虽然很接近正确答案,但front page误译成“第一页”。A项和D项都没有准确译出seldom的意思。因此,综合以上可知,选项B为最佳答案。注意类似的否定词还有hardly,barely,never,little,not only,not until,hardly/scarcely+ when... 等。Hardly could she believe her eyes. (她几乎不能相信她的眼睛.)Not only did he speak more correctly,but he spoke more fluently too. (他不仅讲的更准确,而且也更流利。)Hardly had she entered into the room when it began to rain. (她刚一进屋,就下雨了。)Scarcely had she fallen asleep when a knock at the door awakened her. (她刚刚睡着,忽然敲门的声音把她惊醒。)
