“十一”黄金周“近尾声”
[ 2007-10-06 10:37 ]
今天是“十一”黄金周的第六天，“十一”长假近尾声。随着黄金周的即将结束，国内游及出境游的价格纷纷大跳水。《中国日报》的报道如下：
Major travel agencies had cut prices of domestic group tours by an average 30 percent as of yesterday, as the weeklong National Day holiday approaches its conclusion.
报道说的是，“十一”黄金周已近尾声，各大旅行社纷纷调价，截至昨天，国内旅游路线的降价幅度达到了平均30％。
“进入尾声”、“接近尾声”是中文中十分常见的说法，意思是“即将结束”。在英文中，我们可用approach its conclusion来表达“某事接近尾声”。例如：As the semester approaches its conclusion, what do you think of your performance during this period? （这学期已近尾声，你对自己这学期的表现有何评价？）
Conclusion有“结尾”的意思，比如：The lovers are united at the conclusion of the movie.(电影结束时，这对情侣终成眷属。)
