***老师2019考研英语每日一句第一百一十六句发布，下面就和新文道考研小编一起来看下吧!在接下来的2019考研英语备考的时间里，***每日一句都会和大家相伴!

今天的文章来自时代周刊五月号的内容，标题是：My generation was supposed to level America’s playing field. Instead, we rigged it for ourselves我们这代本应让美国的竞争环境更公正，相反我们却操纵它为自己牟利 文章开头谈到了在美国奇迹依然每天都在出现，在实验室、在一流大学的校园、在研发机器人和医疗诊断软件的企业办公室，和在新公民骄傲宣誓的欢乐仪式上。美国看起来还是那个美国。但是很多指标却反映出这个国家的国民对于国家的信心却创下了历史新低。

今天的句子：

Yet key measures of the nation’s public engagement, satisfaction and confidence—voter turnout, knowledge of public-policy issues, faith that the next generation will fare better than the current one, and respect for basic institutions, especially the government—are far below what they were 50 years ago, and in many cases have reached near historic lows.

思考题一：

The knowledge of public-policy issues is one of key measures for nation’s confidence.

思考题二：

key measures show the next generation will better than the today one

思考题三：

The nation’s public confidence somehow has reached near historic lows.

词汇突破：

1.public engagement 公众参与度

2. public satisfaction and confidence 公众满意度和公众信任度

3. voter turnout 选民投票率

4. knowledge of public-policy issues 对公共政策的了解 (注意：这里的knowledge是表示了解的意思)

5. faith that the next generation will fare better than the current one(相信)下一代会过的比这一代好的信念

切分 (今天的考点就是同位语)：

1.Yet key measures of the nation’s public engagement, satisfaction and confidence are far below what they were 50 years ago,

但衡量这个国家的公众参与、公众满意度和公众信任度的关键指标远低于50年前

2. —voter turnout, knowledge of public-policy issues, faith that the next generation will fare better than the current one, and respect for basic institutions, especially the government— (同位语)

——选民投票率、对公共政策的了解、下一代会过的比这一代好的信念、对基本制度(尤其是政府)的尊重——

3. and in many cases have reached near historic lows.

而且在很多情形看来已经达到历史低点。

参考译文：但衡量这个国家的公众参与、公众满意度和公众信任度的关键指标——选民投票率、对公共政策的了解、下一代会过的比这一代好的信念、对基本制度(尤其是政府)的尊重——远低于50年前，而且在很多情形看来已经达到历史低点。

思考题一：

The knowledge of public-policy issues is one of key measures for nation’s confidence.

这个说法是正确的!同位语就表明这个就是指标之一。

思考题二：

key measures show the next generation will better than the today one

这个说法是错误的!这是胡乱拼凑的一个选项。

思考题三：

The nation’s public confidence somehow has reached near historic lows.

这个说法是正确的!

Somehow= in many cases
