一、例句
There is no going back to the age when large objects were complex and small objects were simple. (选自 The Laws of Simplicity)
二、句子解析
参考译文:再也回不到那个大的物体复杂,小的物体简单的时代了。
这句话选自美国设计师、技术专家 John Maeda 的 The Laws of Simplicity 一书。
当我们想表达“再也回不到......“或“过去......的时代早已不复存在了”时,就可以使用“There is no going back to {X}.”这个地道、好用的句式。
其中,1)X 是名词;2)句中的 no 不可以替换成 not。
三、句式临摹
