【例句&应用】

场景1:现象级英语 “每日一词” & “每日一段”

场景2:在北上这样的城市月收入 1.5 万元看似是高薪,但如果考虑到租房和其他生活成本,就没那么多了。

👉 When housing and other living costs are factored in, a monthly salary of ¥15,000 in Beijing and Shanghai does not seem that handsome.

场景3:美国电影《萨利机长》讲了这样一个故事:一个名叫萨利的机长在飞机引擎受到鸟的撞击的情况下,沉着冷静将飞机降落在哈德逊河上,所有的乘客都成功获救。电影中,事故调查组坚持认为,虽然机长最终救了所有人的性命,但他涉嫌违规驾驶飞机。在这个情景下,我们想表示“考虑到当时的紧急情形,机长的做法合理且明智的”这层意思时,就可以说:

👉 Once you factor in the specific circumstances, you will appreciate how heroic the pilot's action was. 

场景4:评价学生的学术表现不能只看绝对的成绩,而应该考虑到学生的社会经济条件,就可以这么说:
