考研句子分析
The three--fifths formula handed Jefferson his narrow victory in the presidential election of 1800 by inflating the votes of the southern states in the Electoral College 译文是:3/5规定增加了选举人团制度中南方州的选票数,使杰斐逊在1800年大选以微弱的优势获胜.
这里面handed是什么意思?inflating又是什么意思?
这里hand本意为“给,传递”,这里可引申作“帮助”解释.
inflating原形为inflate,原意为“使充气;使膨胀”,这里可作“提高,增加”解释.
