这一篇笔记来自TE文章Seed Capital 第四段:
The money is flowing not just into treating infertility (as ivf clinics do) but also preserving fertility (egg-freezing clinics) and, even further removed from conception, diagnosing if either treatment or preservation might be needed one day (tests and trackers). Of these, infertility treatment is the most mature, though the landscape remains fragmented 41 years after the first ivf baby was born.
be far removed from: to be very different from something 词组,表示“非常不一样”,可以在写作中代替different. 比如文章报道和现实完全不一样,可以说The events in the newspaper artical were far removed from reality.
Though the landscape remains fragmented 41 years after the first ivf baby was born. 41年前第一个试管婴儿出生了,但直到现在这一市场仍然非常碎片化。中文直译成英文我们很有可能会说After the baby was born 41 years ago... ,但是原文使用的句型 X remains adj. + Y years after Z happened. 非常地道也非常常见,值得掌握。事件报道1年了,但是真相仍然不被大众熟知,The fact remains unknown 1 year after it was reported.
段落分析:资本涌入方向包括治疗不孕不育(试管受精诊所),保存生育能力(卵子冷冻诊所)还有离着受孕还远着十万八千里的相关诊断。其中,不孕不育治疗最为成熟,但是市场仍旧碎片化。
