I find that listening to something interesting is the secret to learn languages．

Answer 1

分析 I find that listening to something interesting is the secret to learn  languages．

解答 答案：I find that listening to  something interesting is the secret to learn  languages．
根据汉语意思，可知此句应该用主从复合句去表达；此句表达的为一种事实情况，故用一般现在时；主句为"我发现"表达为I find，后跟that引导的主系表结构的宾语此句；"听某些有趣的东西"，"听"为动词短语listen to；此处作从句的主语应用动名词形式即listening to；"东西"为不定代词something，"有趣的"修饰something为物应用interesting，且位于不定代词的后面，即that listening to something interesting；动名词作主语谓语动词用单数，故后跟is；"语言学习的秘诀"中"秘诀"表达为the secret，后跟动词不定式作后置定语，故to  learn  languages，故这部分可表达为：the secret to learn  languages；故此句可完整地表达为：I find that listening to something interesting is the secret to learn  languages．

点评 此题考查一整句话的翻译．做题时先根据汉语意思确定出句子的大的架构，确定好时态，再联系语法知识和固定及用法等做出准确无误的译句．
