每日一句(58-19/09/09)：吃得苦中苦

The findings of a recent poll by the education charity the Sutton Trust showed that 43% of London pupils aged 11 to 16 had been tutored, up from 36% four years ago. (From The Sunday Times, September 20, 2009: Are parents pushing their children too hard?)

英国的孩子也有升学压力，尤其是上名校的压力。所以请家教的越来越多。

1、up from，由……增长。
2、finding: [usually pl.] information that is discovered as the result of research into sth. 所以上面那句用findings。
*The findings of the commission will be published today.
*These findings suggest that there is no direct link between unemployment and crime.
3、trust指托管组织。
4、aged 11，11岁大。
5、中文说“请家教”，英文是“be tutored”。
