1. Created in 1996, Under Armour, which first created breathable, wicking materials to replace sweaty cotton found in the shirts worn under football pads, was a brand built on a tough-guy image.
为什么这句话这里要用found,很奇怪呀。在shirts里被找到?这个found在这里的意思是什么呢?
2. Debuting in July 2014, the advertisement first featured a famous ballerina soloist dancing as a voice-over reminisced how she was rejected from a top ballet academy.
请问这句话里为什么用的是reminisced呢?不应该是reminiscing吗?这句话里已经有一个谓语动词feature了呀,这里不应该再出现动词了吧。
请老师赐教。

【答】网友提的这个问题,以及 cotton found in the shirts 这个词组,都很有意思。found in the shirts,在本句是过去分词作定语,修饰cotton。这个用法确实很有意思,就是:found 有时不用翻译出来,或者用其他相同的词语代替也可以。found 意为“被发现”,“被发现” 说明 “里面含有;被用于其中”,或者说,已经存在的东西,肯定被人们发现。所以,found 这个词即便不用,或者不翻译出来,句子仍然讲得通。
cotton (found)in the shirts: 用于衬衫的棉花;衬衫里的棉花。
仔细体会下面find 的用法,为何这样翻译?

【答】请网友核查,是不是在 featured 之后漏掉了by?
