英语长难句分析100句精编版

英语长难句分析100句

在MBA联考英语试卷中，阅读理解和翻译共有60分，占到了全卷分数的半壁江山以上。毫不夸张地说，把这两部分做好，在英语考试中取得理想的成绩便不再是奢望。那么怎么样才能做好这一部分的试题呢？关键要通过大量的练习，增强阅读英文句子、尤其是其中长难句的能力。长难句一般是指结构复杂难以理解的句子，也有一些其实结构并不复杂，但因为句子很长也很容易让人困惑。长难句出现不多，但是常常大大增加我们理解的难度，成为我们获取高分的“拦路虎”。

下面就近年试题中阅读理解和翻译中出现的长难句都列出来，分析它们的结构，指出其中的考查难点，并对如何恰当翻译它们给出建议，希望广大同学能从中得到一些启发。

1. Such large, impersonal manipulation of capital and industry greatly increased the numbers and importance of shareholders as a class , an element in national life representing irresponsible wealth detached from the land and the duties of the landowners; and almost equally detached from the responsible management of business.

[句子主干]

Such large, impersonal manipulation of capital and industry greatly increased …shareholders as a class, (which was) an element…

[语法难点]

本句是典型的非限定性定语从句，难点在其主语和宾语都有较长的短语和of结构限定，并且分句是由两个and相连的3个部分组成的。分句an element…landowners 又带有两个定语从句，一个是（which was）representing… ，另一个是(which was)detached…。

可见，定语从句的难点在于经常省略“引导词+be”的结构，从而在理解上容易和分词结构相混淆。

[句子翻译]

对资本和企业的这种大规模的非个人操纵大大增加了股东作为一个阶级的数量和重要性。这个阶层作为国计民生的一部分，代表了非个人责任的财富与土地及土地所有者应尽义务的分离，而且也几乎与责任管理相分离。

[翻译技巧]

实际上定语从句并不符合汉语的使用习惯。所以翻译时遇上定语从句，一定不要机械地按照原来的顺序生搬硬套。像这样分句较长的情况，把主句和分句拆为两句是比较好的方法。所以这里从“这个阶层”开始另起一句。

2．Towns like Bournemouth and Eastboune sprang up to house large. " comfonable" classes who had retired on their incomes, and who had no relation to the rest of the community except that of drawing dividends and occasionally attending a shareholders' meeting to dictate their orders to the management.

[句子主干]

Towns…sprang up…classes who…, and who…

[语法难点]

1）有并列从句。分析句子主干很容易看到这也是一个典型的定语从句结构，分句由who…,and who…两个并列结构组成。注意like并不是谓语而是介词短语作定语，真正的主句谓语是sprang of。retire on指“依靠什么而退休（多跟表收入的名词）”。

2）that of drawing dividends 结构中，draw是收取的意思，dividend指红利，that of sth

结构是名词性的，that of sth相当于which is结构，目的都是修饰前面的名词。注意后面还有attending…是省略了which were的定语从句，把of sth结构和定语从句交替使用是英语中长难句的惯用手法，目的是避免行文的单调，考生朋友们要注意分辨。

[句子翻译]

像Bournemouth和Eastboune这样的城市兴起了，大批隐退的享乐阶层人士靠自己的收入，在这里过着悠闲的生活。他们与群体之外的人没有联系，只是分取红利，偶尔参加股东会议，对管理人员发号施令。

[翻译技巧]

同样是为了避开定语从句，将主句和分句拆为两句。要注意几个短语的理解。retire on 依靠……退休/have…relation…to与……有关系/up to 达到……的规模。

3．Robert Fulton once wrote, "The mechanic should sit down among levers, screws, wedges, wheels, etc. ,like a poet among the letters of the alphabet , considering them as an exhibition of his thoughts, in which a new arrangement transmits a new idea. "

[句子主干]

Robert Fulton once wrote, “The mechanic should sit down…, like a …, considering them as…, in which a…”

[语法难点]

有省略。1）like…分句是省略了who 的主语从句中的分句，considering…分句是现在分词引导的状语从句。这个状语从句可以拿到句首，也可以在句尾。一般来说较长的状语从句置于句尾，较短的置于句首，为的是使句子看上去显得简洁一些。

2）like分句中出现了比较多的省略，补全以后是who like a poet who is among the letters…。英语中的从句之所以是难点就是因为大量地省略引导词。

[句子翻译]

罗博特·富尔顿曾经写道，机械工将坐在杠杆、螺丝、楔、轮子等周围，像诗人对待字母表中的每个字母一样，把它们作为自己的思路展示，每一个新组合都传送一个新概念。[翻译技巧]

如果严格地翻译，like分句应该译为“像对待字母表中字母的诗人一样”，原因是这个从句修饰的是机械工，应该用诗人来对应，但这样一来，就不符合汉语的表达习惯了。

4．Some of these causes are completely reasonable results of social needs. Others are reasonable consequences of particular advances in science being to some extent self-accelerating.

[句子主干]

Some of these causes are reasonable results…, Others are consequences of advances…

[语法难点]

主语是some of these causes，实际的主语就是some，不过谓语是单数还是复数则取决于of后面的成分是单数还是复数。being to…是定语从句的分句结构，意为“属于”。

[句子翻译]

在这些原因中，有些完全是自然而然地来自社会需求，另一些则是由于科学在一定程度上自我加速而产生的某些特定发展的必然结果。

[翻译技巧]这个翻译比较简单，注意being to的翻译即可。

5．This trend began during the Second World War, when several governments came to the conclusion that the specific demands that a government wants to make of its scientific

establishment cannot generally be foreseen in detail.

[句子主干]This trend began during …, when…,that…

[语法难点]

1）有套和从句。这个句子实际上是This trend began.其余的成分都是在起修饰和限定作用。在分析长难句时一定要注意找出句子的主干，关键是确定句子的主语和谓语，只有这样才不会被众多的修饰成分所迷惑。

2）When引导的是时间状语从句。第一个that引导的是修饰conclusion的定语从句，第二个that引导的是修饰demands的定语从句，wants前省略了which，是引导的修饰 a government的主语从句。

[句子翻译]

这种趋势始于第二次世界大战期间，当时一些国家的政府下了结论，认为：政府向科研机构提出的具体要求通常是无法详尽预见的。

[翻译技巧]

此句中短语较多。come to the conclusion形成某种结论/make of提出/in detail详细地

6．This seems mostly effectively done by supporting a certain amount of research not related to immediate goals but of possible consequence in the future.

[句子主干]This seems …done by supporting a certain amount of research not…but…

[语法难点]注意not…but句型，意为“不是……而是……”

[句子翻译]

给某些与当前目标无关但将来可能产生影响的科研提供支持，看来通常能有效地解决这一问题。

[翻译技巧]

严格说来，not…but结构应译为“不是……而是……”，但这样就显得罗嗦，所以译为“与……无关”，但（另一些有关）。a amount of指“数量达到……”。be related to指“与……有关”。

7．However, the world is so made that elegant systems are in principle unable to deal with some of the world's more fascination and delightful aspects.

[句子主干]

However, the world is so made that…systems are …unable to deal with some of the …aspects

[语法难点]

so made指“如此构成”，so和后面的that构成so…that结构，意为“如此……以至于……”。be…(un)able to指“可以（或不可以）……”。

[句子翻译]

然而，世界就是如此。一般而言，完美的体系无法解决世界上某些更加引人入胜的课题。[翻译技巧]

be so made that意为“如…构成”，不符合汉语表达习惯，所以译为“就是如此”。

in principle 总的说来/deal with应付……

8．New forms of thought as well as new subjects for thought must arise in the future as they have in the past, giving rise to new standards of elegance.

[句子主干]

New forms…as well as new subjects…must arise…as they have in the past, giving rise to…[语法难点]

有并列从句。1)主语较为复杂，为并列结构，分别是new forms和new subjects，中间用as well as连接。

2）as在这里引导了一个介词结构（as they have in the past），have的宾语省略了，其内容与本句主语一致。

3)giving rise to…分句为非限定性定语从句的从句，省略了which are。

[句子翻译]

同过去一样，将来必然会出现新的思维方式和新的思维对象，给完美以新的标准。[翻译技巧]

as well as 和，以及/give rise to给……以机会

9．For Lloyd Nickson, a 54 year old Darwin resident suffering from lung cancer, the NT Rights of Terminally III law means he can get on with living without the haunting fear of his suffering: a terrifying death from his breathing condition.

[句子主干]

For Lolyd Nicks, the NT Rights…means he can get on with living without…

[语法难点]

插入成分很多。此句实际上是个简单句，其核心结构为Rights means…，只不过添加了诸多限制结构使句子看起来很复杂。”For Lolyd Nicks”为主句的状语成分，“a 54－years old…cancer”为Lolyd Nicks的同位语。

[句子翻译]

对于现年54岁居住在达尔文的的肺癌患者尼克逊来说，这个法案意味着他可以平静地生活下去，而无须终日担心将要来临的折磨：因呼吸困难而在煎熬中死去。

[翻译技巧]

同位语从句在汉语中很少出现，对同位语从句的处理就把它当作定语从句即可。如此句中就将同位语成分作为前置状语成分的主语的修饰成分即可。haunting fear指“向看到鬼一样恐惧”，表示非常恐惧。

10．Someone traveling alone, if hungry, injured, or ill, often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest cabin or settlement.

[句子主干]

Someo ne…, if…, often had nowhere to turn except…

[语法难点]

有省略现象。traveling不是现在分词，而是引导修饰someone的定语从句。if引导的从句中均省略了“主语＋be动词”的结构，这样显得句子简洁。

[句子翻译]

独自旅行时，如果没有了食物，受伤了或者生病了，通常只能向最近的小屋或者村落求救。

[翻译技巧]

直译的话，应该说人们“没有其他地方，只有……”可得到帮助，但这样写的话显得冗长而且费解，这里根据句意，译为“只能向……求助”就比较准确了。“turn”的用法比较灵活，意思很多，这里依据上下文，译为“向……求助”。

11．We live a society in which the medicinal and social use of substances (drugs) is pervasive: an

aspirin to quiet a headache, some wine to be sociable, coffee to get going in the morning, a cigarette for the nerves.

[句子主干]

We live in a society in which…substances is pervasive…

[语法难点]

实际是简单句。此句句子虽长，但是结构并不复杂，可以从冒号开始分为两个部分。理解的时候要有意识地把两部分分开，个个击破。in which引导了一个定语从句。该从句的分句谓语动词是is而不是are，是因为在这个从句中主语是use，而不是substances，这一点要注意分辨。

[句子翻译]

在我们生活的社会里，物质（药品）被广泛地运用于社交和医疗：服用阿司匹林来缓解头疼，喝酒来应酬，早晨和咖啡来提神，吸烟镇定情绪等。

[翻译技巧]

该句冒号以后的内容写得很轻巧，很有文学性，我们翻译的时候也不要强求字字照应，而应该也是比较灵活。如quiet不是“安静”的意思，而是“镇静”的意思。

12．Dependence is marked first by an increased tolerance, with more and more of the substance required to produce the desired effect, and then by the appearance of unpleasant withdrawal symptoms when the substance is discontinued.

[句子主干]

Dependence is marked first by…, with…, and then by…

[语法难点]

有并列从句和省略。with引导的是伴随结构作状语，修饰的是整个第一分句描述的状态。and引导的分句省略了谓语动词marked ，所以要注意其实该分句并不隶属于第一分句，而是与之并列的结构。

[句子翻译]

依赖的最初表现为耐受力增强，用量越来越大才能达到预期效果，一旦停用就会产生不舒服的症状。

[翻译技巧]

有些同学遇上伴随结构就不知道如何翻译了，其实只要按照原来的语序顺次翻译就是。

13．But he talked as well about the “balanced struggle” between creative freedom and social responsibility, and he announced that the company would launch a drive to develop standards for distribution and labeling of potentially objectionable music.

[句子主干]

But he talked as well about …, and he announced that…

[语法难点]

该句没有从句结构，而是由and连接的两个并列成分构成。用would是因为表达了某人的主观态度和意愿。

[句子翻译]

但他也谈到了创作自由与社会责任之间要“努力保持均衡”这一问题。他宣布公司将尽力对可能招致大众反对的音乐制定各种发行和标识的标准

[翻译技巧]

虽然没有从句结构，但是由于句子太长，有众多的修饰成分，所以建议还是拆为两句较

好。

14．Average inflation in the big seven industrial economies fell to a mere 2.3% last year, close to its lowest level in 30 years, before rising slightly to 2.5% this July.

[句子主干]

Average inflation…fell to a mere…, close to its…, before

[语法难点]

有省略。close to分句是非限定性定语从句，省略了which was。Before后面的成分是对全句的补充说明，是状语成分。状语成分可以置句首，也可以置句末，并无定规。之所以用rising，是因为这里需要一个名次性的结构the inflation which was，这样显得简洁得多。[句子翻译]

七大工业国家的通货膨胀率去年下降到了2.3%，接近30年来最低水平，今年7月才小幅上涨到2.5%，比许多国家70年代和80年代两位数低了很多。

[翻译技巧]

the big seven industrial economies是指西方七大工业国。close to是靠近的意思。fall to 是“跌落至……”的意思。

15．Economists have been particularly surprised by favorable inflation figures in Britain and the United States, since conventional measures suggest that both economies, and especially America's, have little productive slack.

[句子主干]

Economists have been…surprised by…and…, since…,and especially…, have …

[语法难点]

主句用现在完成时have been…是因为经济学家长时间以来关注，现在也在关注，是一个从过去持续到现在的动作。Since引导的是表原因的状语从句。

[句子翻译]

特别让经济学家感到诧异的是，英美两国的通货膨胀带来的是良性的结果，因为传统的分析方法表明，两国尤其是美国的经济生产几乎没有出现滑坡。

[翻译技巧]

favorable表示的是“非常好的”，不是“非常喜欢的”，与个人取向没有关系。productive slack是“生产滑坡”的意思。

16．Actually, it isn't, because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights, which is something the world does not have.

[句子主干]

Actually it isn’ t, because it assumes that…, which is…

[语法难点]

有套合从句。本句为主从复合句。主句很简单，而because引导的原因状语从句中，又有一个that引导的宾语从句。这个从句中，主语an agreed account of human rights由一个which 引导的飞行定性定语从句修饰，而这个非限定性定语从句中又有一个限定性定语从句the world does not have来修饰something。

[句子翻译]

事实并非如此，因为这种问法是以人们对人的权利有共同的认识为基础的，而这种共同认识并不存在。

agree为“约定的”意思，agreed account直译为“约定的看法”，意译为“共同的认识”。可见翻译中一定要结合汉语的语言习惯灵活转换。an agreed account of human rights不可译为“有同意的人权记录”。此外，将不定代词具体化，也更符合汉语习惯。

17．Some philosophers argue that rights exist only within a social contract, as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements.

[句子主干]

Some philosophers argue that…, as part of an exchange of…

[语法难点]

该句仍为主从复合句。that引导的宾语从句中，as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements充当了补充语的角色。

[句子翻译]

有些哲学家论证说，权利只存在社会契约中，是责任与利益相交换的一部分。

[翻译技巧]

要正确选择contract的词义，不要译成从此“收缩，缩小”。argue不要译成“争论”，而要灵活处理成“论证说”。

18．It leads the discussion to extremes at the outset: it invites you to think that animals should be treated either with the consideration humans extend to other humans, or with no consideration at all.

[句子主干]

It leads the discussion…: it invites you to think that…, or with…

[语法难点]

有并列从句和省略。冒号把句子分成两部分，后一部分对前面部分作进一步解释说明。前面部分是简单句。后面部分是复合句。that引导的宾语从句中，主语是animals，谓语是should be treated，either… or…引导两个介词短语作状语，either引导的介词短语中，humans extend to other humans是一个省略引导词that的定语从句。

[句子翻译]

这种说法从一开始就将讨论引向两个极端，它使人们认为应这样对待动物：要么像对人类自身一样关切体谅，要么完全冷漠无情。

[翻译技巧]

it 的所指要明确。leads the discussion to extremes译成“将讨论引向两个极端”，at the outset译成“从一开始”。注意把被动句译为主动句，更合乎汉语习惯。

19．Arguing from the view that humans are different from animals in every relevant respect, extremists of this kind think that animals lie outside the area of moral choice.

[句子主干]

Arguing from the view that humans are…, extremists of this…

[语法难点]

有套和从句。逗号前面是一个现在分词短语，作状语，里面又有一个that从句作the view 的同位语，逗号后面的that从句是一个宾语从句。

[句子翻译]

这类人持极端看法，认为人与动物在各相关方面都不相同，对待动物无须考虑道德问题。

in every relevant respect译成“各相关方面”，不要把respect 译成“尊重”；extremists为极端主义者；let outside the area of moral choice译成“不在道德范围内，不关乎道德”。

20．When that happens, it is not a mistake: it is mankind's instinct for moral reasoning in action, an instinct that should be encouraged rather than laughed at.

[句子主干]

When that happens, it is not a mistake: it is ….instinct…, an instinct that should be…

[语法难点]

以冒号为界，将全句分成两个复合句。前面的复合句里，时间状语从句when that happens 叙述的是前一句to see…的情形的出现。That修饰这种行为，主句表明这种行为并不错。冒号后面的复合句解释为什么。这里有一个that从句，作instinct的定语。

[句子翻译]

这种反应并不错，这是人类用道德观念进行推理的本能在起作用，这种本能应得到鼓励而不应遭到嘲弄。

[翻译技巧]

将that，it等代词具体化，使译文表达明确；reasoning不能译成“原因”，而应译为“推理，推论”；in action不能译成“在行动中”，而译成“在起作用”，action在此是“作用，性能”的意思；翻译被动语态时，使用“得到”，“遭到”等，使译文流畅自然。

21．The Aswan Dam, for example stopped the Nile flooding but deprived Egypt of the fertile silt that floods left - all in return for a giant reservoir of disease which is now so full of silt that it barely generates electricity.

[句子主干]

The Aswan Dam, …stopped the Nile flooding…but…

[语法难点]

有插入语。for example是个插入结构，不是句子的主要成分。but后面省略了the Aswan Dam。注意so…that…结构，是“如此……以至于”的意思。

[句子翻译]

以阿斯旺大坝为例，它挡住了尼罗河的洪水，但也使埃及失去了洪水冲积的肥沃土壤，换回来的却是一个病态的大水库。现在水库积满泥沙，几乎不能用于发电了。

[翻译技巧]

the Nile是尼罗河。All in return意思是“换回来的全部则是”。

22．The trouble is that part of the recent acceleration is due to the usual rebound that occurs at this point in a business cycle, and so is not conclusive evidence of a revival in the underlying trend. [句子主干]

The trouble is that…is due to …, and so is not …

[语法难点]

有套和从句。the trouble is that…是表语从句结构。后一个that引导的是修饰rebound的定语从句。

[句子翻译]

问题在于，近期的增长一定程度上是因为商业运作周期涨落的结果，因此还不能得出经济已经呈现复苏态势这一结论。

part of the recent acceleration不可译为“一部分的最近的加速”，而是“最近加速部分是由于”。business cycle是指“商业周期”。

23．New ways of organizing the workplace all that reengineering and downsizing - are only one contribution to the overall productivity of an economy, which is driven by many other factors such as joint investment in equipment and machinery, new technology, and investment in education and training.

[句子主干]

New ways of …workplace…are only one contribution to…, which is…, and…

[语法难点]

有插入语。两个破折号中间的成分为插入结构，可以视为括号里面的内容。Such as后面的内容是对many other factors的列举。在阅读的时候基本可以跳过不看，除非后面有细节题考查这里的内容。

[句子翻译]

组织工作场所的新方法——包括机构重组和缩小规模——只是促进某个经济实体的综合生产率提高的一项措施，还有其他许多因素促进生产率的提高，比如对机械设备的联合投资、采用新技术、对教育培训投资等。

[翻译技巧]

all that译为“这一切包括”。overall productivity译为“综合生产力水平”。Joint investment 译为“联合投资”。Drive译为“驱动”。

24．His colleague, Michael Beer, says that far too many companies have applied re engineering in a mechanistic fashion, chopping out costs without giving sufficient thought to long term profitability.

[句子主干]

His colleague,…, says that… ,chopping out costs without giving…

[语法难点]

有省略。chopping out costs without giving sufficient …分句是非限定性定语从句。修饰的是前一分句的整体意思。without后面要跟现在分词giving。

[句子翻译]

他的同时迈克尔·比尔说，为数众多的公司以简单机械的方式进行机构重组，降低了成本，但却未能充分考虑长期赢利。

[翻译技巧]

far too many译为“太多的（比实际需要）”。re-engineering in a mechanistic fashion应译为“以简单机械的方式”。chop out译为“削减”。

25．A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal.

【解释】：句中的人名做插入语，谓语动词approve所接宾语有一个定语从句修饰，形容词illegal做the hunting补语。

【翻译】：议会工党成员，Mike Foster先生正竭力使议会通过一项新的法律，这项新的法律规定带着猎狗去捕杀野生动物是违法的。

26．Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990, an achievement that makes it

the envy of many other Third World countries.

【解释】：谓语says 后面是省略了that 的宾语从句；an achievement是对这个宾语从句的补充说明；that引导的定语从句修饰achievement一词。

【翻译】：马丁说自1990年以来，这个数字可能降得还要低一些，巴西降低人口增长的成就成为很多第三世界国家的羡慕对象。

27．In societies where social roles are rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers.

【解释】：这是一个并列句，分句二省略了谓语pattern和宾语play。在修饰这个并列句的状语In societies…中，where引导的定语从句修饰societies一词。

【翻译】：他们的社会角色在社会中被严格地规定下来，男孩按照父亲扮演的角色行事，女孩做母亲做过的事情。

28．Competition is not only good in itself, it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual freedom, equality of opportunity, and hard work are protected.

【解释】：by which 引导的定语从句修饰means ，该从句中的such as individual freedom,是对values 的举例说明，这些举例说明造成了从句的谓语分隔。

【翻译】：竞争不仅是好事，而且是维护美国人其他一些基本的价值观念和个人自由、机会平等和勤奋工作等价值观的手段。

29．The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read.

【解释】：that引导的定语从句修饰conditions和climate，从句中的it是形式宾语，真正的宾语是to devise … to read。

【翻译】：教学的作用就是提供各种条件，创造一种氛围，使得孩子们有可能用最有效的方法自己教育自己阅读。

30．It seems simple enough to distinguish between the organism and the surrounding environment and to separate forces acting on an organism into those that are internal and biological and those that are external and environmental.

【解释】：本句的真正主语是并列的不定式结构：to distinguish…和to separate…，it是形式主语；两个that引导两个并列的定语从句，分别修饰其前的those。

【翻译】：区别有机物与周围环境，以及把作用于有机物上的力分为内部的和生物的与外部的和环境的，这样做似乎非常容易。

31．Those who oppose the building of flats base their case primarily on the assumption（设想）that everyone prefers an individual home and garden and on the high cost per unit of accommodation. 【解释】：who引导的定语从句修饰those；that引导的定语从句修饰assumption。and on the high cost…前面省略了base their…。

【翻译】：那些反对建造公寓的人将其主张基于以下设想：人们更喜欢住带花园的个人私宅，而且公寓的单元造价很高。

32．But my own worry today is less that of the overwhelming problem of elemental literacy than it is of the slightly more luxurious problem of the decline in the skill even of he middle-class reader,

of his unwillingness to afford those spaces of silence, those luxuries of domesticity and time and concentration, that surround the image of the classic act of reading.

【解释】：than后的代词it指代worry，前后都是同等结构，而problem分别带了两个介词短语decline和unwillingness，句末的非限制性定语从句仍修饰problem。

【翻译】：但我今天担忧的不是美国人最基本的认字问题，而是另外一个更奢华的问题，即美国中产阶层读者阅读艺术的衰退，他们不愿意给自己留出安静的空间，呆在家里，花费时间专注地阅读，这是围绕着古典阅读技巧形象的问题。

33．In order to extinguish this dislike for the sweetener, Ader reexposed the animals to saccharin, this time without the drug, and was astonished to find that those mice that had received the highest amounts of sweetener during their earlier conditioning died.

【解释】：本句有两个并列谓语reexposed和was astonished to；第一个that引导的是find的宾语从句；第二个that引导的是定语从句，修饰mice，请注意这个定语从句造成了宾语从句中的主语mice和谓语died的分隔。

【翻译】：为了消除老鼠对甜物的厌恶，Ader又将老鼠暴露在糖精面前，这一次却没有给它们注射药剂，他惊讶地发现，在前面的试验中食入大量甜物的老鼠死掉了。

36．Bottom retail prices-anywhere from 30% to 70% lower than those in Europe and Asia-have attracted some 47 million visitors, who are expected to leave behind $79 billion in 1994.

【解释】：破折号内的插入语进一步说明prices，并造成主谓分隔；who引导的定语从句修饰visitors。

【翻译】：比欧洲和亚洲30%—70%的零售价格吸引了约4700万的游客已于1994年涌入美国，而这些游客为美国留下了79亿美元的收入。

37．And the limited investments that are made in training workers are also much more narrowly focused on the specific skills necessary to do the next job rather than on the basic background skills that make it possible to absorb new technologies.

【解释】：environmentalists argue是插入语，which引导的定语从句修饰extent。

【翻译】：保护环境主义者们说，从长远的观点看，核能浪费宝贵的资源，破坏生态平衡，甚至导致人类的毁灭。

40．We will be faced with a situation where many of the users of these dictionaries will at the very least have distinct socio-cultural perspectives and may have world views which are totally opposed and even hostile to those of the West.

【解释】：where引导的定语从句修饰situation，该从句中有两个由and连接的并列谓语：will have … and may have…；which引导的定语从句修饰views。

【翻译】：这样做是为了促使学生学习，而学习应当是学生生活中迫切的任务。

77．We know that a cat, whose eyes can take in many more rays of light than our eyes, can see clearly in the night.

dote on溺爱；think nothing of 把…看成不重要；take issue with与…发生争执。

80. Thus, the unity that should characterize the strong system is developed by affording opportunity for diversity, which appears to be essential if education is to develop in consideration of the needs of children and youth.

【解释】：限制性定语从句that should characterize the strong system修饰unity（统一性），用前置法翻译。非限制性定语从句which appears…采用后置法翻译。

【翻译】：因此，强大的教育体系所应具备的统一性这一特点是通过提供各种机会来达到的。如果发展教育要考虑儿童和青年的需要，多种机会就显得至关重要。

81. The sample should preferably be taken from points in the rig where the flow is turbulent so that the contaminant is kept well mixed in the oil.

【解释】：这是一个主从复合句。以that引导的从句作house的定语。In the world house为介词短语作定语，修饰living。To re-establish是ability的定语。To (re)establish的一个常见结构是to (re)establish A in B,意思是把A重新建立在B上。

【翻译】：我们希望富有创造性地生活在我们继承的这个世界家庭当中，这种希望存在于我们重新建立人类个性和社会公平方面的生活道德目标的能力之中。

【解释】：该句的主干是From the very day of the capitulation….. Paris stood on the watch。Prisoner本意是“俘虏”，此处是指当时向俾斯麦的普鲁士政府投降的法国政府。翻译时应按汉语习惯，先把句子主干译出来，再译定语从句，并根据它在句中的逻辑关系，把它译为表原因的分句。

【解释】：这是一个主从复合句，从句是两个以when引导的时间状语从句，主句中的word by painful word和just the way mother did都是修饰动词type的。该句的难点有两个：一是形容词painful。我们通常说word by word，意思是一个字一个字的，此处painful,表示打字时非常吃力，翻译时要译为副词。二是just the way mother did,这本来是一个带定语从句的介词短语，但此处省略了介词in。mother did是定语从句，修饰way,前面省略了in which,应是：just in the way in which mother did。

【翻译】：每当我写文章遇到困难想打退堂鼓时，或是自叹不走运时，我就往那台破旧的打字机里卷进一张纸，像妈妈当年那样，一个字一个字吃力地打着。

85. What should doctors say, for example, to a 46-year-old man coming in for a routine physical check up just before going on vacation with his family who, though he feels in perfect health, is found to have a form of cancer that will cause him to die within six months?

【解释】：该句不能按原句顺序译成一个长疑问句，因为它不符合汉语表达习惯，可采用逆序法将man后面的修饰语都提到主语doctor前面来，并用分译法拆开来译。

【翻译】：举例说吧：一个46岁的男子，在与家人外出度假之前进行常规体格检查。虽然他自我感觉良好，但医生发现他患了某种形式的癌症，不超过6个月就会死去。这时，医生该

英语长难句结构分析(含 2019 年高考全国 1-3 卷长难句) 英语中句子最基本的句式只有五种，其他各种句式都是由这五种基本句式转换而来。五种基本句式如下： 1主语＋谓语(不及物动词) 2主语＋谓语(及物动词)＋宾语 3主语＋系动词＋表语 4主语＋谓语(及物动词)＋间接宾语＋直接宾语 5主语＋谓语(及物动词)＋宾语＋宾语补足语 此外还有特殊句式如there be-, 强调句，倒装句等。 但是在真实的语言环境中，句子结构远非这么简单。复杂主语、复杂宾语、复杂介词短语，还有各种复杂的定语和状语等修饰成分让句子变得异常复杂。高考阅读理解、完型填空和语法填空经常出现结构复杂的长难句，影响考生对语篇文段的理解。另外，新高考将包括两个写作题：读后续写(概要写作)和应 用文写作。在评分标准中把“尽力使用较复杂语法结构”视为是否得高分的标准之一。因此，学会分析长难句显得格外重要。 一个句子之所以成为长难句，就是因为句子各部分成分和结构复杂，具体说就是句中出现了复杂主语、复杂宾语、复杂修饰语(介词短语、非谓语动词、定语和状语)以及各种从句等。下面分类解析： 1、复杂主语 包括下列情形：含有连词如and, both...and..., either...or..., neither...nor..., not only...but (also), as well as；非谓语动词做主语；主语从句充当主语；同位语结构做主语等。如： Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementary school, are “most likely to engage ( 从事) in dangerous and risky behavior.”(2019高考全国Ⅰ卷阅读理解D) (as well as 连接those who...与those least liked ...做主语)

考研英语历年真题阅读长难句100句精析

考研英语历年真题阅读长难句100句精析 -CAL-FENGHAI-(2020YEAR-YICAI)_JINGBIAN

考研英语历年真题阅读长难句100句精析 1. While warnings are often appropriate and necessary —the dangers of drug interactions,for example—and many are required by state or federal regulations,it isn't clear that they actually protect the manufacturers and sellers from liability if a customer is injured. 【译文】尽管警告常常是适当而且必须的——比如对于药物相互作用的危险提出警告——许多警告还是按州或联邦政府规定要求给出的，然而(我们) 并不清楚，如果顾客受到伤害时，这些警告是不是确实可以使得生产者和销售者豁免责任。 【分析】在这个主从复合句中，it isn't clear that they actually protect the manufacturers and sellers from liability if a customer is injured是主句。主句用了一个形式主语it，真正的主语是that引导的从句，而that从句之后是一个if引导的条件从句。从句由两个部分组成，中间用and连接。破折号之间的部分是举例说明warnings的内容。注意：many are required by state or federal regulations中的many是指many warnings。 2. Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements—themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of transport . 【译文】由于人口猛增或大量人口流动(现代交通工具使大量人口流动变得相对容易) 所引起的各种问题也会对社会造成新的压力。 【分析】句子主干结构是Additional social stresses may also occur because of...简单句+ because of表示的原因状语，整句翻译应该根据先原因后结果的原则，将主句放在最后；because of后面有两个宾语the population explosion or problems；名词problems带有现在分词短语作后置定语arising from mass migration movements；themselves指前面的名词短语mass migration movements，后面的过去分词短语是themselves的定语。 3. There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists and their readers,which helps explain why the “standard templates” of the newsroom seem alien to many readers. 【译文】新闻记者和读者之间存在着社会和文化方面的脱节，这就是为什么新闻编辑室的“标准模式”似乎与许多读者的意趣相差甚远。 【分析】主句也是一个there加系动词的用法。而表语后都有一个定语从句。本句的定语从句是which helps explain why the “standard templates”of the newsroom seem alien to many readers。Alien 本义为异国的，此处是相差甚远，背道而驰。如果考生不了解standard templates的意思，可以从上下文中找其相同作用和功能的词组，如上句中的 a story line和backbone，那么就应该知道它们指的都是记者们在写新闻和评论时固定的套路和思维。 4. This phenomenon has created serious concerns over the role of smaller economic firms,of national businessmen and over the ultimate stability of the world economy. 【译文】这种现象引起了人们对小型经济实体、民族商人的作用以及世界经济的最终稳定性的极大关注。 【分析】全句的主干是This phenomenon has created serious concerns。人们的担忧实际包含两个方面(即句子的两个状语)：一个是the role (of smaller economic firms， of national businessmen) ，另一个是the ultimate stability (of the world economy) 。但是由于两个状语太长，建议在翻译时调整一下句子的结构，这样句子肯定更通畅些。

But the human mind can glimpse a rapidly changing scene and immediately disregard the 98 percent that is irrelevant, instantaneously focusing on the monkey at the side of a winding forest road or the single suspicious face in a big crowd. [参考译文]但是人类的头脑可以只迅速地瞟一眼一个快速改变的场面，然后立刻放弃98%的不相关部分，而马上聚焦于一条崎岖森林道路边的一只猴子，或者在茫茫人海中的一张可疑的脸。 93. The OECD estimates in its latest Economic Outlook that, if oil prices averaged $22 a barrel for a full year, compared with $13 in 1998, this would increase the oil import bill in rich economies by only 0.25---0.5% of GDP. [参考译文]OECD在其最近的《经济瞭望》中估计，如果石油价格与1998年的每桶13美元相比在一年中平均为每22美元，这也只会给富裕的经济体的石油进口账单上增加GDP的0.25%到0.5%。 94. One more reason not to lose sleep over the rise in oil prices is that, unlike the rises in the 1970s, it has not occurred against the background of general commodity-price inflation and global excess demand. [参考译文]另外一个不应因油价上涨而失眠的原因是，这次不像70年代的那些次上涨，它并不是在普遍的商品价格暴涨和全球需求过旺的背景之下发生的。 95. Although it ruled that there is no constitutional right to physician-assisted suicide, the Court in effect supported the medical principle of "double effect", a centuries-old moral principle holding that an action having two effects--a good one that is intended and a harmful one that is foreseen--is permissible if the actor intends only the good effect. [参考译文]尽管它裁决并没有宪法权利来支持医生帮助下的自杀行为，最高法院实际上支持了被称为"双重效果"的医疗原则;这个已有几个世纪历史的道德原则认为一个可能有两个效果的行为--一个想要达到的好的效果和一个已经预见到的有害的效果是被允许的，如果行为的实施者想要的只是好的效果的话。 96. Nancy Dubler, director of Montefiore Medical Center, contends that the principle will shield doctors who "until now have very, very strongly insisted that they could not give patients sufficient mediation to control their pain if that might hasten death." [参考译文]Nancy Dubler，Montehore医疗中心的主任，认为这一原则将会保护这样一些医生，他们到目前为止还强烈坚持他们不能够给病人足量的镇痛剂来控制他们的疼痛，
