    句子：广告对大学生的影响是微乎其微的。
            　　
    误译：Advertising has merely a small effect on college students.
            　　
    正译:

    1) Advertising has very little ef-fect on college students.
            　　
    2) Advertising has merely an in-significant/ unimportant effect oncollege students.
            　　
    3) The influence that advertising makes on college students is verysmall/ trivial.
            　　
    解释：“小”或“微”有三层意思：体积(size)小、数量(quantity)小、重要性(importance)小。“影响微乎其微”是“重要性小”，英语多用little/insignificant/unimportant/trivial表示。没有smalleffect这样的搭配。但可说smallinfluence/mistake/differences/change，如：

    1.我对这个孩子的影响小，所以他不会按照我说的去做。
            　　
    My influence over the child is small, so he won' t do as I say.
            　　
    2.你犯了个小错误，要不你的工作干得很好。
            　　
    You made a small mistake, but oth-erwise your work was good.
            　　
    3.这两种译文之间仅有细小差别。
            　　
    There are only small differences between the two translations.
            　　
    4.这个计划有个小小的变动。
            　　
    There has been a small change in the plan.“
            　　
    5.这顶帽子太小，我戴不上。
            　　
    The hat is too small for me.
            　　
    “数量小”用a small number of，后跟可数名词；也可用a small amountof，后跟不可数名词，例如：
            　　
    6.我设法节省了一点钱。
            　
    I managed to save a small amount/ sum of money.
            　　
    7.桌子上有少量的书。
            　　
    There are a small number of books on the table.
