“直角跑道”英语怎么说
名词解释：哈尔滨市通河县清河林业局文化中心将体育场的弯道修成了直角，应付上级检查。你知道怎么用英语表达“直角跑道”吗?
Bungling sport officials in the north-eastern Heilongjiang province have built a rectangular running track because they were concerned they wouldn't get an oval one finished in time for an imminent inspection.
The bizarre track was built as a part of a major refurbishment of a 10,000 square foot stadium in Tonghe County.
With the project running behind schedule and an inspection approaching, managers made the decision to create a running track with awkward 90-degree bends as they are easier to measure and lay out.
在东北黑龙江省，笨手笨脚的体育局工作人员建了一个直角跑道——因为他们担心来不及在日益临近的检查前建成一个椭圆形跑道。
这条奇形怪状的跑道是通河县一体育馆整体翻修的一部分，这个体育馆占地达10000平方英尺。
由于工程拖拖拉拉，未能及时完成，而检查却日益临近，管理人员决定，建一条难看的90度直角跑道，因为这样的跑道测量和铺设起来更容易。
【讲解】
文中的rectangular running track就是“直角跑道”的意思，也可以说成是right-angled running track。其中，rectangular在此用作形容词，解释为“直角的，成直角的”。track是一个可数名词，解释为“跑道”，track and field是指“田径运动”。
此外，文中的imminent是一个形容词，解释为“临近的，迫在眉睫的”，比如imminent storm(即将来临的暴风雨)。
