到目前為止,廣大的陵墓群中不到百分之一被挖掘出來,揭開所有隱藏的秘密可能需要幾個世紀。但發現的步伐正在加快。 - His lifelike pigment has been preserved, and his body will go on display at the museum with all of the cracks and fissures he received during his 2,200 years underground.

怎樣應用?
我覺得在以上幾句句子裏,第2,第8和第9句都是很好用的常用語,看看以下例句學起來吧:
- 第2句“To everyone's delight”就是令人高興的是的意思,寫文章很常用到哦!例如:
- To everyone's delight, he has finally started working out regularly. (令人高興的是,他終於開始有規律地運動。)
- 第8句我其實是喜歡作者用的“cracks and all”,這裡翻譯為裂痕及其他瑕疵,其實用“and all”就可以很概括的包含所有向那個方向發展的例子,例如"perfume and all"可以指香水及其他奢侈品,"pimples and all"可以指青春荳及其他皮膚問題,看看以下例子你應該就會明白了:
- He keeps bringing her expensive gifts, perfume and all.(他不斷為她帶來昂貴的禮物,包括香水(及名牌包包,珠寶等)。)
- It's the first time she is meeting her new boyfriend without make up, showing him her real self, pimples and all.(這是她第一次素顏見她的新男朋友,向他展示真實的自己,包括青春荳(及皺紋,雀斑等)。)
- 第9句“plainly visible”就是清晰可見~我認為用於一些「看不見」但「很明顯」的情況也非常合用:
- Their mischievous intension was plainly visible.(他們的不良動機清晰可見。)
