求高手翻译下面的合同条款，急啊~

a provision shall apply which approximates best the intended economic effect of the invalid provision in a legally admissible way.

Answer 1

赞同一楼答案，此句翻译的重点是：
1、shall在第三人称主语后的使用，可考虑译成“必须、务必”等；
2、appy是不及物动词；
3、此句中的定语从句，译成条件句为妥，如一楼所示。
分享！
楼主给定的原句前应该还有一个成分，如：
In place of the invalid or illegal provision, a provision shall apply, which...
In this event, a provision shall apply, which...
In the case of an omission, a provision shall apply, which...
Instead of the ineffective provision such a provision shall apply, which...
If any of the provisions of these General Terms and Conditions is ineffective, a
provision shall apply which...
In place of the invalid clause, a provision shall apply which...
Instead of the wholly or partially ineffective provision, a provision shall apply...
which is legally effective and most nearly corresponds in economic effect to that intended by the ineffective provision.

Answer 2

若某（项）条款在法律容许的范畴内、能更好（地）粗略估计无效条款的预期经济效益，则可运用（或执行、实行、施行）该款（项）。
