　　今天的句子：

　　The traditional telephone system relied on circuits to transmit communications — that is, a dedicated connection from each party on a call to the other. There were advantages to that model, especially because having a dedicated circuit meant that telephone calls were very reliable, but it was not a terribly flexible system. The Internet, by contrast, was designed for flexibility. Bandwidth permitting, every member of a household can use it simultaneously, with multiple different devices, in dozens of ways, for many purposes, all at once.

　　思考题：

　　The telephone system is mentioned to show that___.

　　A.oral communication is outdated

　　B.it is a strong and reliable model

　　C.flexibility makes Internet desirable

　　D.circuits can serve multiple purposes

　　词汇突破：

　　circuits 电路

　　transmit 传输

　　— that is, 也就是说

　　a dedicated connection 专用的链接

　　a dedicated circuit 专线

　　terribly(非常)

　　this dish is terribly delicious. (这道菜太好吃了!)

　　这就类似于汤神说的：清晰地一塌糊涂、

　　flexible 灵活的

　　by contrast, 相比较而言(找出不同点)、

　　by comparison (找出共同点)

　　flexibility 灵活性

　　Bandwidth 带宽

　　simultaneously 同时

　　句子解析：

　　第一句：

　　The traditional telephone system relied on circuits to transmit communications — that is, a dedicated connection from each party on a call to the other.(同位语解释前面的句子)

　　参考译文：传统的电话系统依靠电路来传输通信，即从每个呼叫方和另一方之间有专用的连接。

　　第二句：

　　There were advantages(主干) to that model, especially because having a dedicated circuit meant that telephone calls were very reliable, 状语 but it was not a terribly flexible system.(并列主干二)

　　参考译文：这种模式有其优点，尤其是专用电路意味着电话呼叫非常可靠，但它并不是一个非常灵活的系统。

　　第三句：

　　The Internet,by contrast, was designed for flexibility.

　　参考译文：相比之下，互联网为灵活性而设计。

　　第四句：

　　Bandwidth permitting,(状语) every member of a household can use it simultaneously, with multiple different devices, in dozens of ways, for many purposes, all at once.(状语)

　　参考译文：带宽允许的情况下，每个家庭成员都可以同时使用，接入多个不同设备，为了许多目的，以数十种方式，全都同时进行。

　　思考题解析：

　　这是一个例证题!

　　电话系统被提及来展示_____

　　(A) 何凯文老师很勤奋。

　　(B) 人和人是有区别的。

　　答案只能选B吧!

　　例证题的答案：来自例子前后的结论。

　　D. circuits can serve multiple purposes
