It was in Chile shediscovered she could get last-minutecheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra delFuego, the southernmost tip of the South American mainland.

这是2022年高考考试英语全国甲卷(全国卷Ⅱ)阅读理解C中的一个句子。

请问句中的 last-minute cheap deal 的意思是?

last-minute 的意思是“最后时刻的”,getlast-minute cheap deals on ships 的意思是“买到开船前的便宜船票”(轮船在开船前假如还有没空位的话,此时的票价最非常实惠的)

句意:正是在智利,她发现她可以买到开船前的便宜船票,坐船从南美国内最南端的火地岛附近前往南极洲。

 

又如下面各句中的 last-minute 均没直译成“最后时刻的”:

a last-minute rush 临时抱佛脚

The prisoner won a last-minute reprieve. 那囚犯在临刑前获得了缓刑。

There was a last-minute rearrangement of theschedule. 程表临到最后还作了重新安排。
