1）翻译下面的句子：   

有些家常菜可以和米其林星级餐厅的佳肴媲美。

Some home-made dishes could ravel those  the cuisine of the restaurants rated by Michelin.

（参考翻译：Some home-cooked dishes can rival the cuisine served at a Michelin-starred restaurant.） 

评注一下：those of这个用法不好，因为更容易看起来是home-made dishes的对应，而不是其他，有歧义。所以需要修正。of the restaurants rated by Michelin...有点单调了。参考翻译更好。
