5. Their income is ________________.

答案與解析：

1. were plunged into a dire suffering

本題考查考生基本詞彙量和短語的掌握情況。 水深火熱 在英文中沒有一個對等詞，所以要採用意譯法。可以接受的譯法有：a dire suffering，an abyss of suffering，extreme misery。Be plunged into表示 使......陷入，使......遭受 ，如：plunge a country into war;plunge sb. into deep sorrow。另外，前半句中careworn意為 受折磨的，飽經憂患的` 。

2. theory be combined with practice

be combined with...是固定搭配，意為 與......相結合 。Be connected with是指 將......連起來 ，在含義上有所差別。其次，句首用了We think it most important that句型，暗示從句要用虛擬語氣，should可以省略。

3. Rain or shine

本題考查固定用法 不論...... ，英語用...來表達。如：Winter or summer，that lady always wears a long black gown.類似的表達還有：better or worse，good or evil，sink or swim，men or women，old or young。
