Question

英语翻译
In real life,finding criminals is seldom much of a problem ,Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks-where failure to produce results reflects on the standing(名望的） of the police-little effort is spent on searching.
在真实生活中,抓捕罪犯不过是小菜一碟,除非是在谋杀等大案要案和恐怖袭击事件发生的时候,需要花很长时间才能得出结果.
【我的问题】：【little effort is spent on searching.】不是不需要努力吗?怎么还要花很长时间.

Answer 1

需要很长时间,是因为有“Except in very serious cases like...” 是说前句,抓罪犯很容易,除了在.所以说,这些要案需要很长时间.where failure to .这一句在你的中文翻译里面没有解释出来.意思是 不能找到罪犯得出结...
