请帮忙看一句汉译英
原句：此前的一项调查表明,在华东等6个地区的县级以上市场中,随即采购的大米样品10%左右铬超标.
译句：A previous market investigation of 6 localities at or above county level shows that about 10% of the radom purchased rice contains excess cadmium.
这句话中的“调查”用research还是investigation,还是其他词更合适?另外这里shows,contains都用了现在时,整句话的翻译怎么样?

Answer 1

investigate挺合适啦 意思就是detailed research了
show contain 合适用现在时
下面是我的建议供你参考
A previous survey shows that about 10% of randomly purchased rice in markets at or above county level including East China contains excessive cadmium.
