“Altogether, the collection was challenging to curate, which may go some way in reflecting an otherwise challenging year,” 歲近年末，所以國家地理雜誌選出了30張過去一年當中最震撼人心的照片；上面那句是照片簡介的小結。我不懂的是”an otherwise challenging year”是什麼意思？按照我對otherwise的用法， “an otherwise challenging year”意思就是這一年「實際上並不challenging」。但這樣的話又跟上下文不符了（文章後面有繼續說 “It's been a difficult year for many people," says National Geographic photo editor Jehan Jillani. "But while selecting these photos, I was reminded of how beautiful and complex our world is.”）謝謝指點！ ----- Sent from JPTT on my iPhone -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 1.171.137.34 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Eng-Class/M.1512922062.A.21E.html
