2016考研英语作文必背高分句：法案的约束

Apart from the fact that twenty-seven Acts ofParliament govern the terms of advertising, noregular advertiser dare promote a product that failsto live up to the promise of his advertisements.

译文：

除了议会制定的二十七项法案对广告词加以约束之外，没有哪个正规的广告商敢推销与广告承诺不符符的产品。

点睛：

本句的主干是no regular advertiser dare promote aproduct，前面是一个apart from引导的介词结构，介词from的宾语the fact之后又有一个同位语从句。在主句中，a product之后跟着定语从句that fails to live upto the promise of his advertisements。act作“法案”讲时首字母必须大写。

Would you tell us something about the new Education Act?

请你给我们讲讲新的《教育法》好吗?

短语live up to意为“实现，兑现”。

You muse live up to your promise.

你必须兑现你的诺言。

考点归纳：

注意作“除了”讲时，apart from，other than和but的区别。

*apart from兼有except(从所提到的人或事物中除去，即“从整体中除去一部分”)和besides(除了…之外，还有…，即“在整体中加入一部分”)两种含义，还有without的意思。apart from后面可接名词、代词或动名词。

He has done good work,apart from a few slight faults.(=except for)

*but与except同义，但but多用在every、any、no等词以及由这些词构成的复合词，如everything、anywhere、nobody等和all、none之后。
