Children should get in touch with more classical music.
这种写法看起来似乎没问题,但英美人士读起来可能会觉得莫名其妙,因为get in touch with用错了,get in touch with的意思是“通过电话或信件与某人取得联系”(communicate with someone by letter or telephone),不能用来指“与某事物接触”。正确的用法应该是:
Children should be exposed to more classical music.
汉语中有“虽然……但是……”,“因为……所以……”这些连词,但如果将它们照搬到英语中就会出错。我们不能说:Although I can’t help admiring the man’s courage, but I do not approve of his methods. 而应该说:Although I can’t help admiring the man’s courage, I do not approve of his methods.
