慢速英语:World Health Officials Debate New Tobacco Controls

Source: 恒星英语学习网  Onion  2010-11-17   English BBS   Favorite  
1.A World Health Organization treaty called the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control took effect five years ago.

take effect生效, 奏效

例句:The prescribed medicine failed to take effect.
      医生开的药没有见效。

2.An official at the Indonesian Tobacco Alliance says his trade group agrees with banning all activities to promote cigarettes to the young.

agree with与某人〔观点〕一致, 同意〔赞同〕某人的意见

例句:In the main, I agree with Edward.
      我基本上同意爱德华的意见。

      They might not agree with his opinions.
      他们或许会不同意他的意见。

agree to,agree on,agree with
这些短语动词均可表示“同意”之意。
agree to常与plan(计划)、arrangement(安排)、suggestion(建议)、proposal(建议)、terms(条件)、method(方法)等名词连用。这时agree to不仅指其主语与对方看法一致,而且暗含自己也愿合作、承担义务或效法的意味。
agree on指双方或多方在某件事情上取得一致的意见。常与plan(计划)、date(日期)、terms(条件)、price(价格)等名词连用。
agree with可用于指人,指同意其看法或意见等,也可与一些名词或从句连用。与agree to不同之处是,仅表示看法或意见一致,没有愿意进行合作或效法的含义。

3.The director of the Tanzania Tobacco Control Forum points out that several American brands still use burley tobacco but without additives.

point out指出; 把注意力引向…

例句:This guide book points out the main facts of early American history.
      这本导游手册讲述了美洲早期的重要史实。

      If I make any mistakes, please point them out.
      如果我出了错, 请指出来。

point to表明

例句:All the signs at the moment point to an early resumption of the fighting between the two countries.
      眼下的一切迹象都表明这两个国家将很快重新开战。
