349. So in October 1915 Einstein threw himself into a month-long frantic endeavor in which he returned to an earlier mathematical strategy and wrestled with equations, proofs, corrections and updates that he rushed to give as lectures to Berlin's Prussian Academy of Sciences on four successive Thursdays.
因此在1915年的10月,爱因斯坦投身于长达一个多月的疯狂工作中,在此期间,他回归到以前的那些数学原理,并且与方程式、证明、修正、更新数据等展开了一番搏斗,而这些信息正是他急于要在随后的连续四个周四向柏林普鲁士科学院做演讲的内容。
六级词汇讲解:
本句的结构较为复杂,句中含有两个定语从句,分别由in which和that引导,而句中的that既引导了定语从句,修饰equations,proofs,corrections and updates,又作为give的宾语成分。frantic意为“疯狂的,狂乱的”。 rush to do意为“而仓促行动;仓促从事”。successive与success看起来相似,但是意义却与success无关,successive意为“连续的;继承的,接替的”othrow sb. into sth.意为“把某人陷入某事……,专心于……”o wrestlewith意为“全力对付;努力克服”。如:
She is wrestling with the question.
她正为这个难题而苦思冥想。
