Answer 1

1、第一题答案错了，应该是behind
We were all at a loss, wondering what was behind this sudden change of plan.
我们都很困惑，纳闷着这次计划的突变的背后到底是什么？

2、My mom said,"don't get off the bus while it is stopping.
我的妈妈说，汽车正在停靠的时候不要下车。
这边选while,因为后面是it is stopping，如果要用until，那么句子就得变成
My mom said,"Don't get off the bus until it stops."

3、Global warming pushes the temperature higher for January in China
这边的for翻译为对于，“对于中国的一月份来说，全球变暖使得温度更高了（比以前）——这是直译”。意译的话就是“全球变暖使得中国一月份的温度更高了”
e.g. He is tall for his age.对于他的年纪来说，他算是高的了。
It is warm in November.十一月天气暖和。
It is warm for November.对于十一月来说，这天气算是暖和的了。

4、Is football John's favorite sport? -Yes.Next to football,basketballis his greatest love.
这里next to 翻译为次于的意思
e.g. Next to good judgment, diamond and pearl is the rarest thing in the world.
次于真知灼见者，为钻石与珍珠为世上最罕有之物耳。

5、correspond后面用with或者to都可以的

6、
A、Except for a few words he didn”t say anything.
word 和 anything 不属于同类事物，用 except for ，再如：
Your composition is good except for some spelling mistakes. composition 和 mistakes 不属于同类事物。
这种用法表示：对整体说明做细节修正

B、Everyone is here except Jimmy.
everyone 和 Jimmy 都是人，属同类事物，用except，再如：
We go to school every day except Sunday.
这种用法表示：从整体中减除部分。

C、Five other representatives arrived late besides me. 除了我还有五位代表来晚了。（晚到的代表中包括"我"）
besides 意为"除了……（还，也）"，表示的是追加关系，整体中包括了"除了"的部分；

手打的说，还小费了点时间~0~
