解答
"America beat Japan in war?" asks Kevin 2050.He is astonished.It seems as impossible as Brazil defeating the United States would sound in 1990.
这句的语法:①as…as…结构 ②动名词
as…as…结构中第一个as作副词修饰impossible,第二个as作连词,引导后面的比较状语从句.
as A as B → “和B一样A”,as impossible as B → “和B一样不可能”.
例:The apple seems as big as my palm.(虽然第二个as后连接的是句子,但句子的谓语可以省略,这是as…as…结构特殊的地方)
Brazil defeating the United States:动名词复合结构作从句主语,省略了“'s” → Brazil's defeating the United States.
例:His being later makes the teacher unhappy.
全句翻译:这句话似乎和在1990年的“巴西能打败美国”听起来一样不可能.→ 这句话就和人们在1990年听到“巴西能打败美国”一样,让人觉得难以置信(在这个故事里,2050年的日本是强国而美国是弱国,因此美国曾经打败日本的历史让2050年的Kevin 2050觉得不可思议、震惊了,这就如同有人在1990年说“巴西能打败超级大国美帝”一样让人诧异).
