1．In 1951, the then director of the Guiness Brewery, Sir Hugh Beaver, wanted to settle an argument about the fastest bird in Europe.
1951年，当时任吉尼斯啤酒公司董事长的休·比弗爵士想要解决一场关于什么鸟是欧洲飞得最快的鸟的争论。
（1）the then director, 中的then在这里作定语，意为“当时的，那时的”。例如：
The then president of America was Bill Clinton. 当时的美国总统是克林顿。 opp present 现任的
The present president of China is Hu Jintao. 中国现任主席是胡锦涛。
（2）settle an argument意为“解决争端”，settle 在此处作“解决，处理”讲。如：
It’s time for you to settle your dispute with him. 现在该是你解决与他的争端的时候了。 回忆settle的相关用法： ①定居，安家落户

2．Impressive as the record is, it fades next to the story of Armstrong’s struggle against disease. 虽然这次记录令人难忘，但是它还是逊色于阿姆斯特朗与疾病抗争的故事。
Impressive as the record is, 是一个特殊句式。as还可用作though。
此句式可换成：Although/Though the record is impressive,… 注意：
①倒装后，不可用although, 而用though或as. ②只有在倒装句式中as作“虽然，但是”讲，但在陈述句中，as没有此义。 倒装主要句型结构如下： ①形容词＋as/though＋主语＋谓语 ②名词＋as/though＋主语＋谓语 ③副词＋as/though＋主语＋谓语
④动词＋as/though＋主语/谓语 ⑤过去分词＋as/though＋主语/谓语
例如：Young as she is, she knows much. 虽然她很年轻，但她知道的东西很多。（相当于：Though/ Although she is young, …) Child as he is, he can deal with difficult problems.
尽管他是一个孩子，但他能处理一些难题。（注意：child前不可带冠词a. 此句相当于：Though/Although he is a child, …）
