▍ 核心句型解析
1. 现在完成时态 (Present Perfect Tense)
句型：
解析：原文“改革开放以来……发生了……”。
句型：
Since..., Chinese people's diet has undergone...解析：原文“改革开放以来……发生了……”。
Since 引导的时间状语通常与现在完成时 has/have + 过去分词 连用。使用动词 undergo (经历/经受) 代替简单的 happen 显得用词更加正式高级。 2. Not only... but also... 结构
句型：
解析：原文“不仅……也……”。这是一个标准的递进关系。翻译时注意平衡：前半部分用
句型：
...is not only more abundant..., but its quality has also significantly improved.解析：原文“不仅……也……”。这是一个标准的递进关系。翻译时注意平衡：前半部分用
is... 描述状态，后半部分用 has improved 描述变化，并辅以副词 significantly (显著地) 进行修饰。 3. 比较级与副词平行排比 (Comparatives & Parallel Adverbs)
句型：
解析：原文“要求越来越高……更加注重……”。翻译时使用比较级
句型：
...have higher requirements... and pay more attention to eating nutritiously and healthily.解析：原文“要求越来越高……更加注重……”。翻译时使用比较级
higher 和 more attention。对于“营养健康地吃”，将中文动词转化为 eating (动名词) 后接两个并列的副词 nutritiously 和 healthily，结构紧凑。 4. 被动语态与后置定语 (Passive Voice & Post-modifier)
句型：
解析：原文“推出的低脂……食品受到人们的……欢迎”。将“推出”处理为过去分词短语
句型：
...organic foods introduced in the market are widely welcomed...解析：原文“推出的低脂……食品受到人们的……欢迎”。将“推出”处理为过去分词短语
introduced in the market 作后置定语修饰主语；谓语部分使用被动语态 are widely welcomed，体现了客观事实的描述。 ▍ 核心词汇积累
