1.澳大利亚的悉尼用英文怎么说
“澳大利亚的首都是悉尼”英文表达,是:The capital of Australia is Sydney。
但是这个意思表达的是错误的,澳大利亚的首都是堪培拉(The capital of Australia is Canberra)。“…的首都”译为:the capital of + 国家。
例句:1、Beijing is the capital of China.北京是中国的首都。2、Kathmandu is the capital of Nepal.加德满都是尼泊尔的首都。
扩展资料capital 用法1、作为 n. (名词)capital的基本意思是“首都”“首府”,主要指政治中心,引申可表示处于领导地位的都市,常可用在其他名词前作定语,是可数名词。capital的另一个意思是“资本”“资金”,即创建企业或维持企业生产所需的资金,是抽象名词,不可数。
可用于“a capitalof+金额”结构,引申可指“资源”“力量之源泉”等。capital还可作“大写字母”解,为可数名词。
2、作为 adj. (形容词)capital用作形容词时,可作“大写的”“资本的”“可处死刑的”“主要的”“基本的”等解,在句中多用作定语。作“极好的”解时,既可用作定语也可用作表语。
captial常与of连用,后面加国家,表示“……的首都”,如capital of China;capitals可表示大写的,注意与介词in连用。
2.用英语介绍悉尼
The Sydney area was the ancestral home of the Daruk tribe, whose territory extended from Botany Bay to Pittwater. There are some 2000 Aboriginal (土著居民的)rock engraving sites in the Sydney area, and many of Sydney's suburbs have Aboriginal names. The city of Sydney began life as a penal colony(指英国放逐犯人的殖民地) in 1788, and for the next 60 years received the unwanted, persecuted and criminal elements of British society. Despite its brutal beginnings, the city's mixture of pragmatic egalitarianism(平等主义)and plain indifference has transformed it into a thriving multicultural society. Sydney now attracts the majority of Australia's immigrants and the city's predominantly Anglo-Irish heritage(传统)has been revitalized by large influxes of Italian, Lebanese, Turkish, Greek, Chinese and Vietnamese. The centre of Sydney is on the south shore of the harbour, about 7km (4mi) inland from the harbour heads. The CBD (中央商务区) has become a mini Manhattan of skyscrapers vying(竞争的;竞赛的)for dominance and harbour views, but its relentlessness (指城市钢筋水泥建筑的丛林给人留下的硬邦邦的感觉) is softened by shady Hyde Park and the Domain parkland to the east, Darling Harbour to the west and the main harbour to the north. The Sydney Harbour Bridge and the harbour tunnel link the city centre with the satellite CBD of North Sydney and the suburbs of the North Shore. The city's airport, Kingsford Smith (otherwise known as Mascot), is about 10km (6mi) south of the city centre. Central Station, Sydney's main train station, is in the south of the city centre, and the main bus terminal is just outside it. The city has a population of 3.7 million and is growing fast.。
