Add to that the fact that she’s incredibly wealthy, and it just doesn’t make sense. 再加上她非常富有的事实,这就实在讲不通了。

【分析】英语中,add to that/this/it the fact that 从句....., 是一种固定表达句式。

1. 在这个句式中,that, this 和it,都是指上文提到的事情。

2. add 是及物动词,the fact 是其宾语,后面跟着一个同位语从句,因为太长了,故放在to that 之后。正常语序应为:add +宾语(the fact that 同位语从句) to that。to that 是介词短语。

3. 根据上述分析,add to that the fact that... 的字面意思是:把后面这个事实(情况)再加到刚才说的那件事情上,作为对前述内容的补充。大致意思是:“此外”,“还有”,“另外”,“除此之外”,“而且”,“还有”,“再加上”,等等。

【注意】把the fact that 同位语从句的内容,放在后面翻译。

如果add 前面有了主语,例如:I can add to this the fact that,则翻译成:“我还可以补充”。

举例如下:

1. Add to that the fact that the Rockets have a poor track record against the Lakers.

此外,事实是火箭有一个对阵湖人连败的记录。

2. Add to that the fact that the system, while incredibly competitive, has become corrupt.

另外,这异常激烈的竞争制度,已经变得恶化了。

3. Add to that the fact that Satan is continually tempting us and trying to pull us down, and you will realise that one of our biggest needs is to be kept by God day by day.

除此以外,还加上撒但不断试探我们,务求使我们跌倒,因此,我们逐渐明白到我们需要时刻祈求神的保护。

4. Add to that the fact that many people I asked said that the only people who called their landlines were older relatives, and there's a slightly callous edge to our willingness to let it ring and ring.

而且,我问过不少人,会打固定电话来找他们的只有长辈。在这种情况下,一径地让铃声随我们的意愿响下去几乎是残忍的。

5. Add to this the fact that it is also permanently connected to the Internet and you have what the rest of the industry is starting to recognise as a game changer.

再加上,它一直在线,就成就了一部颠覆游戏规则的手机。这一点其它业内同行也开始意识到了。

6. Add to it the fact that the whole evening I had been very uncomfortable, I couldn't settle down, and I just felt kind of out of place, almost unwanted.

再加上,那一整晚我都感觉不对劲,所以我无法平静下来。我感觉到极其不安。

7. We can add to this the fact that if you can measure it, but don’t, you are likely not to get the results you hoped for.

这是管理界的至理名言。我们还想补充的是,可能你能进行检测衡量,但是你无法获得预期效果。

8. Add to this the fact that perceptions about the economy are worsening week by week, and one might have expected the central theme of the Democratic campaign to be “throw the bums out.”

在此基础上,再加之人们对经济状况日益恶化的认识,这些都会让人期望民主党的选战主题是“把烂政客赶下台去”。

9. Add to this the fact that for most Internet businesses, the site itself is so big that we break it up artificially into many smaller “products.”

此外,大部分网络公司由于网站体型过于庞大,需要我们人为地将其拆分成许多小“产品”。

10. Add to this the fact that over the past 20 years, Chinese individuals have been accumulating personal wealth at a rapid pace.

还有一个事实便是,在过去的20年里,中国的个人财富增长迅速。

【修改答案】

赞同刘老师的解答。这是一个“祈使句+and/or+陈述句”的特殊句式,祈使句相当于if引导的条件句。

意译:如果再加上她非常富有的事实,那么这就实在讲不通了。

and之后的并列句没有用将来时,而是用一般现在时。关于这个问题可参看以下链接:
