1. People are always talking about 'the problem of youth'.
人们总是在谈论“青年问题”。
always通常带有感情色彩,表示高兴,气愤,抱怨等,可以通过上下文语境来判断。
2. If there is one — which I take leave to doubt — then it is older people who create it,not the young themselves.
如果这个问题存在的话——请允许我对此持怀疑态度——那么,这个问题是由老年人而不是青年人造成的。
which I take leave to doubt是定语从句,修饰one(指的是Problem)。is……,not……,这种形式可以换成:Not……But……。
3. Let us get down to fundamentals and agree that the young are after all human beings — people just like their elders.
让我们来认真研究一些基本事实:承认青年人和他们的长辈一样也是人。
after all 毕竟,无论如何
例句:You should take care of her, after all she is your relative.
你应该照顾她,毕竟她是你的亲戚。
