名师答疑：Compared with cars等词汇在句中的意思

　　问：老师您好，请您帮忙解答，谢谢

　　Compared with cars, (前者用的是被动比较,对吗?)bicycles are superior in may ways.

　　In many ways(怎么解释呢,在此句中)

　　Because to ride a bicycle is very simple ,to buy a bicycle will not cost so much money ……

　　Because to ride(可以这样表示吗?为什么) …

　　Bicycle can save the surface of putting it.这句话怎么翻译呢?

　　答：Compared with 就是compare的过去分词短语形式用作状语, 就表示“与 ... 比较”，不存在被动关系

　　In many ways 的意思就是在许多方面

　　Because to ride a bicycle is very simple ,to buy a bicycle will not cost so much money

　　这句中， to ride a bicycle 与 to buy a bicycle 并列，做to ride a bicycle is very simple的主语

　　Bicycle can save the surface of putting it. 这句话要在上下文语境中翻译，这样单独一句不好翻译
