2 hit home for sb的理解与翻译

This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday.

这是2022年新高考全国卷2阅读理解B的一个句子。不太理解句中hit home for sb 的意思。查词典:

hit/strike hometo become very clear and obvious in usually a forceful or unpleasant way(通常以强迫或令人不快的方式)显示出来,暴露出来

但用它套在句子中也不太好理解,全句的翻译也不会,请教柯帕斯英语网的专家老师!谢谢!

2022年新高考全国卷2阅读理解B全文如下:

We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools. Many young people don’t even realize it’s new. For them, it’s just normal.

This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday. I had brought a children’s book to read. It had simple words and colorful pictures—a perfect match for his age.

Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures. As I read, he reaches out and pokes () the page with his finger.

What’s up with that? He just likes the pictures, I thought. Then I turned the page and continued. He poked the page even harder. I nearly dropped the book. I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid?

Then I realized what was happening. He was actually a stranger to books. His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them. He thought my storybook was like that.

Sorry, kid. This book is not part of your high-tech world. It’s an outdated, lifeless thing. An antique, Like your grandfather. Well, I may be old, but I’m not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking. I edit video and produce audio. I use mobile payment. I’ve even built websites.

There’s one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I’ve spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio. But that didn’t stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.

Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star—two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head. But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.

根据the free dictionary 的解释,hit home的意思是:If a situation or what someone says hits home or strikes home, people realize that it is real or true, even though it may be unpleasant. / become fully realized by someone.

This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday.

这句话根据上下文,我的理解是:春节期间,当我和两岁的孙子做在沙发上(教孙子看图识字)时,我明白了还真是年轻人说的这么回事。

this 指的是年轻人认为的多媒体很常见,不算什么新东西。文章后面也提到两岁的孙子都习惯了用平板电脑。

参考译文:在春节假期,当我和我两岁的孙子坐在沙发上时,我深刻意识到了这一点。

备注(1)hit home 击中要害;使深刻意识到 sth hit home for sb=使某人深刻意思到某事

备注(2)This hit home for sb为主句, as I was .....over the Spring Festival holiday.为从属连词as 引导时间状语从句。

从她的表情中我可以看出他那些挖苦人的话已经触及她的痛处。

他的分析的确击中要害我自己从未有过那样的见解。
