　　1. in the last office but one

　　解析：but經(jīng)常與表示最高級的形容詞或first，next，last等同連用，如：Some people say this nation is the cleverest but one in the whole world.(有人說，這個民族在全世界范圍內(nèi)聰明才智排第二。)She was the last but one to come.(她是倒數(shù)第二個來的。)

　　2. beyond description

　　解析：比起譯文not easy to describe in words，cannot be described by words，答案的譯文顯然要精妙得多。beyond用作介詞時可以表示exceeding，out the reach of，即：超出(理解、范圍、眼界)之上。如：This passage is beyond my comprehension.(這篇文章超出了我的理解力。)I won’t buy your radio set beyond my offer.(只要超出我出的價錢，我就不買你這臺收音機(jī)。)
