just as... so2

Just as societies were facing their histories, so, too, were countless individuals. (Hillary, Living History, p. 530) [原译]当不同的社会在面对它们的历史之时,无数的个人也是如此。(希拉里,《亲历历史》,p. 313) 我既没有理解原文的意思,也没有理解译文的意思。译者把这里的 just as 从句译成了时间状语从句,对吗?

just as ... so 是一个常见的句型, 它的意思是: “正像……一样……”, 见上条。face sth.be faced with sth. 的意思是“面临(困难、不愉快的事等)”。

[试译]正像社会面临历史问题一样,无数的个人也面临着历史带来的问题。
