第228句 医生道德
the full import may take a while to sink in. the nt rights of the terminally i’ll law has left physicians and citizens alike trying to deal with its moral and practical implications.
译文：要充分理解这一法案的深刻意义可能需要一段时间。《北领地末期病人权利法》促使医生和公民一起去努力探索其道德及实际方面的意义。
点睛：第一句是个简单句。第二句稍微复杂一些，其主干为：the nt rights of the terminally ill law has left physicians and citizens…。分词短语trying to deal with its moral and practical implications作宾语physicians and citizens的补足语。
考点归纳：注意本句中出现的单词import和短语sink in、deal with。
*import作名词和动词的不同用法：
1)作名词时，常用的意思为“进口，输入；进口商品”，而本句中意为“意义；重要性”。
the import of his remarks was that we should work harder.
他的演讲的意义是我们应更加努力工作。
this is a question of great import.
这是一个十分重要的问题。
2)作动词时，意为“含有…意思，意味着”。
a high inflation rate imports hard times for consumers.
通货膨胀率高意味着消费者日子难过。
*sink in意为“渗入；被理解：被理会；被听进去”。
if the ink sinks in, it’ll be hard to remove the spot from the cloth．
如果墨水渗入布料，就很难把污迹洗去。
it took a week for it to sink in that his mother had died.
大约过了一星期，他才明白过来他母亲已经死了。
*deal with，resolve和solve都有“解决”的意思，其区别在于：
1)deal with仅表示“解决，处理”。
what we want is that the teacher may deal fairly with us.
我们所希望的只是这个老师能够公平地对待我们。
2)resolve指“解决（矛盾或大难题）”，突出问题的严重性，如：resolve a conflict，resolve differences，resolve a crisis。除此之外，它还有一个比较重要的意思就是“下决心，决定”。
he resolved to study abroad.
他决心出国念书。
3)solve -般指“解决难题”，如：solve a problem, solve a riddle．但所要解决的问题的严重性不如resolve。
she tried to solve a crossword puzzle.
她试着解答一个填空游戏。
n. 进口，进口商品，意义
v. 进口，输入
