求教英语达人,这个句子可以这样翻译不?
XX现象已经越来越普遍.
我纠结该翻译成下面那一句.
the phenomenon of XXX has been already increasingly prevalent
the phenomenon of XXX was already increasingly prevalent
还是我上面两句的翻译都不对.求达人解释下,我就想把这句话列个万能句用在写作开头.求达人指教下.还有别的好用的但是少见的开头句嘛.

第一个句子是对的.还有：The phenomenon of ~ has been brought into focus/The problem of~has been in the limelight.
