问题一:
It was as if the only way any of us could be sure that my body was clear of
infection was for me to officially become a better person.
这段话我无法理解的是连续用了三个Be动词
原本是想说
It was as if the only way [....] for me to officially become a better person
这样看来似乎能理解这句再讲什么
但在for me之前又多了个was
想请问版上强者能否解惑这段句子的正确意思Orz
问题二:
And as friends came by with meals and groceries and showered me with well
wishes and all manner of questions about my state of mind, the more it
occurred to me that their hunger for stories of my cosmic transformation was
rooted less in their concern for my soul than in their culturally ingrained
need for capital-C “Closure.”
同段句子的 capital-C "closure"
完全看不懂这两个字的意思@@??
是指...??? 资本主义的 closure ???
