1. Death should be accepted as a fact of life.

句意:死亡应该被看作是一种无法逃避的现实。

a fact of life 的意思是“生活的现实”“无法逃避的现实”“生活中的平常事”等。如:

We must all die some time—that’s just a fact of life. 我们终有一死,这是无法逃避的现实。

Taxes are a fact of life. You just have to pay them. 缴税是无法避免的现实,你不能不缴。

2. There is no career counseling implicit in all of this.

句意:所有这一切并不包括职业咨询。

句中的 implicit in all of this 为形容词短语,用作后置定语,修饰名词career counseling(职业咨询);相当省略的定语从句:There is no career counseling (which is) implicit in all of this.

(1) implicit 的意思是“隐含其中的;不明言的”(可用作表语或定语)。如:

Her words contained an implicit threat. 她话里带着威胁。

the ideas implicit in Big Bang cosmology 宇宙大爆炸理论中一些不明晰的概念

另外,implicit 有时还表示“完全的,毫无疑问的”,但此时它通常是用作定语,尤其用于 implicit faith / trust / belief 等结构中。如:

She had the implicit trust of her staff. 她得到了全体职员的绝对信任。

All her life she had implicit faith in socialism. 她一生都对社会主义坚信不疑。

He had implicit faith in the noble intentions of the Emperor. 他对皇帝陛下高尚的动机深信不疑。

(2) in all of this 的意思是“在这一切中”(当然若有特定上下文,这里的this应根据具体上下文来理解)。如:

The real losers in all of this are the students. 在这一切中真正受损害的是学生。

Don’t you think there’s an element of jealousy in all of this? 你不觉得所有这一切都是妒嫉在隐隐作祟?
