如果能动笔抄写翻译更好

然后在看下面的解析

如有任何问题

可以直接分答提问

【结构解析】

1. if引导条件状语从句，句子主干为主系表结构，即：that /will be /a triumph for yet another scientific idea;

2. a refinement of the Big Bang 为yet another scientific idea的同位语，解释其内容；called the inflationary universe theory 为后置定语，修饰a refinement of the Big Bang

【词的处理】

triumph  / ˈtraiʌmf / n. 胜利

yet another 另一种

refinement  / riˈfainmənt / n. 改善，改良，精炼

inflationary  / inˈfleiʃənri / adj. 通货膨胀的

【参考译文】

If the small hot spots look as expected, that will be a triumph for yet another scientific idea, a refinement of the Big Bang called the inflationary universe theory.

假如这些小热点看上去同预计的一致，那就意味着又一种科学论说的胜利，这种论说也就是更完美的大爆炸论，亦称宇宙膨胀说。

【明日长难句】
