1. The transcription needs a certain amount of editing, as even if the computer can tell the difference between words of similar sounds such as write and right, it is still not yet able to do the work as well as an intelligent secretary.
这份手抄本仍还需要进行大量的编辑工作,因为即使是电脑可以区分出诸如\"write and right\"这类读音相近的词,但它还是不能比一个聪慧的秘书处理的好!

这句的主句就最前面的一小句,后面是由as引导的原因状语从句
2. If a needle is thrown [at random] on a sheet of paper( ruled with lines)( whose distance apart is exactly equal to the length of the needle), how often can it be expected to fall on a line and how often into a blank space?
如果将一根针扔到一张上带有与该针长度等间距的平行线条的纸上,那么其落到线条上和空白处的概率会是多少?(这个是概率的一个经典习题,数学专业的应该都知道)————————————————————————————————
前面条件状语从句中有两个定语,难点在第一个paper的定语ruled with lines意为平行线,后面主句很普通由两个简单疑问句组成.
