一 确立主干

（1）确立主语

1、避免主语机械对应

这个地区雨比较多。

It rains a lot in this area.

2、方位词或时间词在主语位置

山下住着一位老妇人。

There lives an old lady at the foot of the mountain.

3、用it做主语翻译主语是复合结构的汉语

信不信是你的事。

It is your concern whether you believe me or not.

最好是等他们回来。

It is advisable to wait till they come back.

勤能补拙

It is diligence that makes for deficiency.

2、确立谓语：英语的动词通常只能由某个动词或者系表结构担任。

在人际关系上我们不要太浪漫主义。

We shouldn't be too romantic about personal relationship.

当他活着一天，总要尽量多工作、多学习，不肯虚度年华，不让时间白白地浪费掉。
