【今日长难句】

Historians, especially those so blinded by their research interests that they have been accused of “tunnel method,” frequently fall victim to the “technical fallacy.” Also common in the natural sciences, the technical fallacy mistakenly identifies the discipline as a whole with certain parts of its technical implementation.

长难句的正确打开方式

先尝试自己分析

然后看下面的解析

【词的处理】

blind vt. 使失明,使眼花,使困惑

be accused of … 被指责……

tunnel n. 地下通道,隧道

tunnel method 【术语】单方向研究法

victim n. 受害者,牺牲品

fallacy n. 错误,谬论

discipline n. 学科

as a whole 作为一个整体

certain adj. 某个,某人,某事

implementation n. 实施,履行

【结构解析】

1.首句主干为主系表结构,即:Historians/ frequently fall/ victim to the “technical fallacy”. 其中fall =become, 表“变成”。

2.especially those …为插入语成分,对主语Historians做补充说明。so blinded by their research interests that they have been accused of “tunnel method” 为those 的后置定语。

3. 二句主干为主谓宾宾补结构,即:the technical fallacy /mistakenly identifies/ the discipline as a whole /with certain parts of its technical implementation; 其中难点在于固定搭配 identify sth. with sth. 译为:认为某事物等同于.

4. also common in the natural sciences, 为形容词短语充当状语成分修饰整个句子。

【参考译文】

Historians, especially those so blinded by their research interests that they have been accused of “tunnel method,” frequently fall victim to the “technical fallacy.” Also com mon in the natural sciences, the technical fallacy mistakenly identifies the discipline as a whole with certain parts of its technical implementation.

史学家,尤其是那些单纯局限于他们研究兴趣的史学家,被指责为使用“单方向研究法”,常常成为“纯技术方法论”的牺牲品。“纯技术方法论”错误地把整个学科与学科研究的某些操作方法等同起来,这种情况在自然科学领域里也屡见不鲜。

【今日长难句】

It applies equally to traditional historians who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources, and to social science historians who equate their activity with specific techniques.

长难句的正确打开方式

先尝试自己分析

然后看下面的解析

【词的处理】

apply to 与……相关;适用于……;存在于……

external adj. 外部的

internal adj. 内部的

criticism n. 批评,批判,指责

equate vt. 同等看待,使等同

equate… with …认为……就是……

【结构解析】

1. it 所指代的内容,需要联系上文方能做出判断。因此,联系昨天的句子,it指代the technical fallacy, 即:(纯)技术错误。

2. 句子主干为it /applies to /traditional historians and to social science historians,其中,apply to 表“与……相关/存在于……”

3. who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources和who equate their activity with specific techniques为定语从句,分别修饰traditional historians和social science historians。由于定语从句较长,建议处理为单句。

4. activity一词在本句中译为活动不妥,“历史学家的活动”显然表意模糊,译为“历史学家的研究”更为恰当。

【参考译文】

It applies equally to traditional historians who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources, and to social science historians who equate their activity with specific techniques.

这种谬误同样存在于历史传统家和历史社科家;前者认为历史仅仅是史学界内部和外部人士对各种史料来源的评论,后者则认为历史的研究是具体方法。

【今日长难句】

They were, by far, the largest and most distant objects that scientists had ever detected: a strip of enormous cosmic clouds some 15 billion light-years from earth. But even more important, it was the farthest that scientists had been able to look into the past, for what they were seeing were the patterns and structures that existed 15 billion years ago.

长难句的正确打开方式

先尝试自己分析

然后看下面的解析

【词的处理】

by far 迄今为止

object n. 物体

detect vt. 发现

a strip of …一条/块(狭长的)……

enormous adj. 巨大的

cosmic adj. 宇宙的(cosmos n. 宇宙)

lligte-year n. 光年

look into 调查,观察

Pattern n. 模式

【结构解析】

1. 本句主干为主系表结构,即:they/ were / the largest and most distant objects.

2. by far 为插入语,表时间状语

3. that scientists had ever detected 为定语从句,修饰 objects.

4. 分号之后的“a strip of enormous cosmic clouds some 15 billion light-years from earth”为objects 的同位语,起解释说明作用。

二句

1. but even more important 为句子的状语成分

2. 句子主干为主系表结构,即:it /was /the farthest;其中it 指代上文中的a strip of enormous cosmic clouds

3. that 引导定语从句修饰 the farthest

4. for +从句,表原因。从句主干为主系表结构:what they were seeing/ were / the patterns and structures; that existed 15 billion years ago. 为定语从句修饰the patterns and structures.

【参考译文】

They were, by far, the largest and most distant objects that scientists had ever detected: a strip of enormous cosmic clouds some 15 billion light-years from earth. But even more important, it was the farthest that scientists had been able to look into the past, for what they were seeing were the patterns and structures that existed 15 billion years ago.

迄今为止,科学家所发现的最大、最遥远的物体是:离地球大约150亿光年的一块狭长的巨大宇宙云系。更为重要的是,这是科学家们能够观测到的最遥远的过去的景象,因为他们看到的是150亿年前宇宙云的形状和结构。

【今日长难句】

That was just about the moment that the universe was born. What the researchers found was at once both amazing and expected: the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Cosmic Background Explorer satellite—Cobe—had discovered landmark evidence that the universe did in fact begin with the primeval explosion

长难句的正确打开方式

先尝试自己分析

然后看下面的解析

【词的处理】

Aeronautics n. 航空学

Administration n. 管理;管理局

landmark n. 地标;里程碑

primeval adj. 远古的,原始的

originate vi. 起源于

【结构解析】

1.首句主干为“主系表”结构,即:that / was /just about the moment; that 引导定语从句,可译为“的”结构,即:那大约就是宇宙形成的时候。

2.二句主干为“主从+系动词+表语”结构,即:what the researchers found/ was/ at once both amazing and expected: … 该句翻译时,顺序翻译即可:研究人员的发现既令人惊讶,又在人们的意料之中:……

3.“:”之后为“what the researchers found”的同位语从句,从句主干为“主谓宾”,即:the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Cosmic Background Explorer satellite—Cobe—/had discovered /landmark evidence; 译为:美国国家航空航天局的Cobe号宇宙背景探测器已经发现了划时代的证据

4.that the universe did in fact begin with the primeval explosion为同位语从句,解释evidence的内容,其中did +begin with 为强调谓语动词的强调结构。例如:如果你的男人跟你说“I did love you.”意思是“我过去确实爱过你。”

5. that has become known as the Big Bang (the theory that the universe originated in an explosion from a single mass of energy) 为定语从句,修饰the primeval explosion.

【参考译文】

That was just about the moment that the universe was born. What the researchers found was at once both amazing and expected: the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Cosmic Background Explorer satellite—Cobe—had discovered landmark evidence that the universe did in fact begin with the primeval explosion that has become known as the Big Bang (the theory that the universe originated in an explosion from a single mass of energy).

那大约就是宇宙形成的时候。研究人员的发现既令人惊讶,又在人们的意料之中:美国国家航空航天局的Cobe号宇宙背景探测器已经发现了划时代的证据,表明宇宙确实起源于最早的一次爆炸,人们称之为"大爆炸"(此理论认为宇宙起源于一大块能量的爆炸)。

10.25

【今日长难句】长难句的正确打开方式:先尝试自己分析-再看下面的解析

The existence of the giant clouds was virtually required for the Big Bang, first put forward in the 1920s, to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the cosmos.

【词的处理】

virtually adv. 实际上

put forward 提出

maintain 维持,保持

reign n. 统治时期,当政期

dominant adj. 占支配地位的

cosmos n. 宇宙

【结构解析】

1.句子主干为 The existence of the giant clouds /was virtually required for /the Big Bang;

2.first put forward in the 1920s 为the Big Bang 的后置定语;

3. to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the cosmos 为动词不定式充当目的状语。

【参考译文】The existence of the giant clouds was virtually required for the Big Bang, first put forward in the 1920s, to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the cosmos.

译文1:巨大的宇宙云的存在,实际上是20年代首创的大爆炸论得以保持其宇宙起源论的主导地位不可缺少的。(翻译时将所有修饰成分跟主干融合在一起)

译文2:巨大的宇宙云的存在实际上大爆炸理论不可或缺的,大爆炸理论是20世纪20年代首次提出的,目的是保持其宇宙起源论的主导地位。(翻译时将修饰成分单独处理成短句)大家晚安~

英语四级句子翻译.txt你看得见我打在屏幕上的字,却看不到我掉在键盘上的 泪!自己选择45°仰视别人,就休怪他人135°俯视着看你。一、 I.汉语从反面表达,译文从正面表达 例1:他提出的论据相当不充实。 译文:The argument he put forward is pretty thin. (词) 例2:我们确信,年轻一代将不会辜负我们的信任。 译文:We are confident that the younger generation will prove worthy of our trust. (短语) 例3:他七十岁了,可是并不显老。 译文:He was 70, but he carried his years lightly. (句子) II.汉语从正面表达,译文从反面表达 例4:他这个人优柔寡断,而且总是反复无常。 译文:He was an indecisive sort of person and always capricious. (词) 例5:调查结果清清楚楚地显示病人死于心脏病。 译文:The investigation left no doubt that the patient had died of heart disease. (短语) 例6:这类举动迟早会被人发觉的。 译文:Such actions couldn’t long escape notice.

(否定转移) 二、 分句、合句法 很多情况下,翻译句子的时候,需要调整原来的句子结构,分句法和合句法是调整原文句子的两种重要的方法。所谓分句法就是把原文的一个简单句译为两个或两个以上的句子。所谓合句法就是把原文两个或两个以上的简单句或一个复合句译成一个单句。 I.分句法 汉译英时,需要分译的句子多数是长句,或者是结构复杂的复句。这种句子如果译成一个长句,就会使译文冗长、累赘、意思表达不清楚,也不符合英文习惯。 如果采用分译,则会使译文简洁、易懂、层次分明。如以下五个例子: 例1. 少年是一去不复返的,等到精力衰竭时,要做学问也来不及了。(按内 容层次分译) 译文: Youth will soon be gone, never to return. And it will be too late for you to go into scholarship when in your declining years. 例2. 她隔窗望去,突然发现有只小船停泊在河边,船里有位船夫睡得正香。(从主语变换处分译)

英语四级考试复杂长难句分析(二) 导读:本文英语四级考试复杂长难句分析(二),仅供参考,如果觉得很不错,欢迎点评和分享。 第一章并列平行结构(二) 英语句子最常用的方法是通过使用一些关联词,如and、or等,或标点符号如:分号,逗号,破折号等,若干个在语义上有联系或相互照应的单词、词组或子句连在一起组成一种并列或平行结构的长句,以表达一个复杂得多层次含义。这种句式虽然难度不一定很高,但在复杂长句中还是占了相当大的比例的. 1. More than three million people live in inner London,and nearly five million people live in the surrounding suburban area,which is made up of formerly separate villages that have merged to form what is now called outer London. 要点:全句为并列复合句。“and”连接并列句。第二个句子是主从复合句。“which”引出非限制性定语从句,修饰“area”。“that”引出限制性定语从句,修饰“villages”。“what”引出名词从句,作“from”的宾语。 参考译文:三百多万人口居住在伦敦市区,将近五百多万人口居住在周围的郊区——该地区由原来分散的村庄构成,逐步形成如今被称为的外伦敦。 2.

For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travellers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. (1990. 阅读. Text 1) 【译文】除了早期漂洋过海的旅行者或靠海谋生的人之外,对大多数人来说,大海是遥远的,没有必要提出太多问题,更别说思考大海海底的东西了。 【析句】复合句,本句主干为the sea was remote and there was little reason to...,and连接两个并列句子,两个句子之间又有with the exception of...作伴随状语,伴随状语中又包含who earned a living from the sea定语从句修饰others。最后是习惯let alone...,注意let alone后的动词形式与前面主句动词形式相同。 2. The first time that question "What is at the bottom of the oceans?" had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. (1990. 阅读. Text 1) 【译文】当有人建议铺设一条从欧洲到美洲的海底电报光缆的时候,出于商业动机,人们才不得不首次回答这个问题“海底有什么东西”。 【析句】本句话的难点在于主从句成分的区分。主句为The first time was when the laying...was proposed, when引导表语从句,而that question had to be answered with...则是定语从句修饰the first time。 3. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea.

英语四级真题阅读长难句分析(3)

1. The notion that learning should have in it an element of inspired play would seem to the greater part of the academic establishment merely silly, but that is nonetheless the case. (2003. 阅读. 6. Text 2) 【译文】学习中应该包括具有启发性的娱乐这一观点对于大部分学术机构而言似乎是愚蠢的,但事实的确如此。 【析句】本例句的难点在于寻找主句的主干。很明显,主句由but连接两个并列句组成,but 后的句子that is nonetheless the case是简单句。but前的句子主句是the notion would seem merely silly to the greater part of the academic establishment,to在这里作介词,这一介宾结构提前放在了谓语动词seem后,容易让人误以为是短语seem to的用法,结果导致理解失误。最后主句主语the notion有that引导的定语从句修饰。 2. Already the public agencies for adult education are swamped by the tide that has swept over them since depression began. (200 3. 阅读. 6. Text 3) 【译文】从事成人教育的公共机构已经因为经济萧条开始以来席卷全国的趋势而陷入困境。【析句】例句2的句子结构并不复杂,主句the public agencies for adult education are swamped by the tide, that has swept over them...作定语从句修饰the tide, 而定语从句中,又有since引导的时间状语从句,这个时间是修饰swept over这个动作的。 3. A new high-performance contact lens under development at the department for applied physics at the University of Heidelberg will not only correct ordinary vision defects but will enhance normal night vision as much as five times, making people's vision sharper than that of cats. (2003. 阅读. 6.

英语四级阅读长难句句子结构分析(13) 倒装结构 英语中有时为了强调突出某一句子成分,或当否定词出现在句首时,或是由于同上文衔接等的缘故,常常采用倒装的结构,即:把正常的主+谓+宾(表)+补+状的语序打乱,把应该在后面出现的成分提到前面去,如:谓语出现在主语前面,谓语、宾语出现在主语前面,或状语放在句首等。简单句中的倒装较容易辨认,但在长句中当同其他的句子结构混在一起时,倒装结构的辨认就有一定的困难,有时会误认为是其他的句子成分,如:分句独立结构,定语等,导致错判全句的主干,形成理解障碍。 Exercise We could not offer you that post without the responsibility, neither could we ask you to accept the one or two other vacancies of a different type which do exist, for they are unsuitable for someone with your high standard of education and ability. Along with this disparagement of a compliment is the American tendency to laugh at one's own mistakes and admit one's weaknesses. The Chinese had trained messengers on horseback and runners before 1100 B.C.,as did the ancient Persians, Greeks and Romans. 要点:neither后面用的是倒装语序(could we)。which do exist 的先行词为vacancies,但被of a different type 隔开。exist后面是一个由for(等立连词)引导的原因状语从句,用来作附加说明。 1

英语四级阅读长难句句子结构分析

英语四级阅读长难句句子结构分析 英语四级阅读中有些长难句非常难理解,其实理解英语四级阅读长难句的最好方法就是学会分析句子的结构,下面一起来学习一下英语四级阅读长难句句子结构分析,希望对各位有所帮助。 Exercise I plan to see her soon in England, though not, she reminded me, again at 10 Downing Street. The cessation of the employment of extraordinary means to prolong the life of the body when there is irrefutable evidence that biological death is imminent is the decision of the patient and/or her immediate family. With rock,illusion of shared feelings, bodily contact and grunted formulas, which are supposed to contain so much meaning beyond the speech, are the basis of association. 要点:让步状语though not again at 10 Downing Street 被插入语she reminded me所分隔。而且该让步状语是一个省略的结构,全句应为though(it will) not(be)again at 10 Downing Street. 还应看出让步状语所转达的意思正是插入语的宾语所要转达的意思。she reminded me (it will not be again at 10 Downing Street)。省略和插入的使用使全句的意思得以很好地衔接连贯、结构紧凑,无多余的成分。 参考译文:我打算不久和她在英国见面,不过她提醒我地点不再是唐宁街十号了。 要点:此句话的主谓被很长一段定语成分所分隔,句子主干应是“The cessation...is the decision of the patient and/or her immediate family”,由于主干中的is前没有逗号分开,而且前面又出现了一个is imminent,还由于同主语The cessation拉开的距离太远,所以不容易很快找到。When前面的部分如果不注意很容易错误地理解为一个句子,即“The cessation...means to prolong the life of body.”实际上means是个名词,意为“方法,手段”,不是动词“意味着”。而且means前面有个形容词extraordinary作定语,不可能是动词,尽管意思上说得通。when引导的状语从句里带了一个定语从句that biological death is imminent,它们一起插入了主语和谓语之间。把means错当动词和状语带定语的插入使得整句的结构复杂化了,致使主干句的主谓不容易看出来。 参考译文:在有不可反驳的证据表明病人即将进入生理死亡时,停止采取非常措施来延长其生命应该由病人和(或)其直系亲属来作出决定。
