原句:

In a developing country such as China, our investment in culture, education and science, and especially elementary education, must be thought of firstly. It is important for China to catch up with the developed nations in today's surging waves of technological revolution.

改句:

In a developing country such as China, our investment in culture, education and science, and especially elementary education, must enjoy top priority. It is crucial for China to catch up with the developed nations in today's surging waves of technological revolution.

【解析】

原句其实也是一个比较好的句子,但是细细观察后,我们依旧可以发现提高之处,“be thought of firstly”是要表示“首先要考虑到”,词汇相对简单,所以我们可以想一个高级点的词组。我想到的是“priority”这个单词,它的意思是“优先权”,常常和“top”搭配在一起。至于动词“enjoy”,在这里解释为“享有”。“important”为常用词,所以我把其换成了 “crucial”。

下面大家自己来做做看吧!

However, upon careful thought, I believe that we should first consider environmental protection.

答案:

However, upon careful thought, I believe that top priority should be given to environmental protection.
