Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, which now more tha n ever seem in ample supply: the critic of American materialism with a Southamp ton summer home; the publisher of radical books who takes his meals in three-st ar restaurants; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, whose own children are enrolled in private schools.

相反,我们被款待看到这样一些虚伪的壮观景象,他们似乎比以前的任何时候都更供应充足:美国式物质主义的批判者却拥有位于南安普顿的避暑山庄:激进书籍的出版商却在三星级餐厅享用一日三餐;倡导在人生各个阶段的参与民主制的记者,他的子女却就读于私立学校。

78. No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professional and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule. Nevertheless, the word "amateur" does carry a connotation that person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not share its values.

科学领域的专业人员和业余爱好者之间划不出泾渭分明的界线:因为任何规则都有例外。然而,"业余"一词的确意味着相关人员不能充分融入职业科学界,尤其未能分享科学圈子的价值。

79. The trend was naturally most obvious in those areas of science based especi ally on a mathematical or laboratory training, and can be illustrated in terms of the development of geology in the United kingdom.

很自然,这种趋势会在尤以数学或实验室训练为基础的自然学科领域表现最为明显,并且可以英国的地质学发展作例证来说明。

80. A comparison of British geological publications over the last century and a half reveals not simply an increasing emphasis on the primacy of research, but also a changing definition of what constitutes an acceptable research paper. 将过去一个半世纪英国地质学领域的出版物做一下比较,(我们)就会发现不仅对科研的主导地位的强调不断攀升,而且一篇可接受的科研论文所包含的内容的定义也有所变化。

81. The overall result has been to make entrance to professional geological jou rnals harder for a mateurs, a result that has been reinforced by the widespread introduction of refereeing, first by national journals in the 19th century and then by several local geological journals in the 20th century.

这样一来总的结果便是业余爱好者想在专业地质学期刊…卜发表文章就更难了,而被广泛使用的论文评审推荐制度又进一步强化了这一结果,该种制度先是出现在19世纪的国家级刊物上,后又在20世纪被几家地方级地质学刊物所使用。

82. A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional geologi sts coming together nationally within one or two specific societies, whereas th e amateurs have tended either to remain in local societies or to come together nationally in a different way.

一个颇为相似的分化过程已经导致专业的地质学家走到一起组成一到两个全国性的专科学术社团,而业余地质爱好者们倾向于要么仍留在地方社团,要么也以另一种方式组成全国性

机构。

83. Sad to say, this project has turned out to be mostly low--level findings ab out factual errors and spelling and grammar mistakes, combined with lots of hea d--scratching puzzlement about what in the world those readers really want. 遗憾地讲,这次新闻机构可信度调查计划结果只获得了一些十分低层次的发现,比如新闻报道中的事实错误,拼写或语法错误(和这些低层次发现)交织在一起的还有许多令人挠头的困惑,譬如读者到底想读些什么。

84. I believe that the most important forces behind the massive M&M wave are th

e same that underlie the globalization process: falling transportation and comm unication costs, lower trade and investment barriers and enlarged markets that require enlarged operations capable o

f meetin

g customers' demands.

我认为巨大的并购浪潮背后的最重要的推动力同时也就是促成全球化进程的那方基石:即降低交通运输成本,逐渐减少贸易投资壁垒,以及大幅度拓展市场,这些都要求更大规模的经营管理以满足消费者需求。

85. A lateral move that hurt my pride and blocked my professional progress prom oted me to abandon my relatively high profile career although, in the manner of a disgraced government minister, I covered my exit by claiming "I wanted to sp end more time with my family."

一次侧面的不光明磊落的攻击伤害了我的自尊,阻碍了我事业的发展,使我不得不抛弃了那份引人注目的工作,尽管表面上我还要以一个蒙受屈辱的政府部长的姿态,通过声称"我只不过是想多和家人呆在一起" 来掩盖我的退出。

86. I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resigna tion from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life", and making the alternative move into "downsh ifting brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social sta tus.

或许正像凯尔西在不堪积劳重负而公开地辞去她在《她》杂志社的编辑一职之后一样,我已经发现,放弃那种"为生活忙碌"的人生信条并转而追求比较悠闲的生活带给你的回报远远大于经济成功和社会地位。

87. While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline-af ter the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late ' 80s-and is still l inked to the politics of thrift, in Britain, at least among the middle-class do wn shifters of my acquaintance, we have different reasons for seeking to simpli fy our lives.

在美国,这一返朴趋势是以经济衰落的反应为开始的--那是在80年代末期裁员而引起大量的失业之后一一现在依然与提倡节俭的政纲相关;而在英国,最起码在我所熟识的中产阶级返朴归隐者中,追求简约;生活的原因就多种多样了。

88. For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling through the'

80s, down-shifting in the mid' 90s is not so much a search for the mythical go od lift-growing your own organic vegetables, and risking turning into one-as a personal recognition of your limitations.

对于我这一代曾在整个80年代为生活奔波的女人来说,90年代中期出现的归隐恬退与其说是我们寻求一种神话般的美好生活--用有机肥种植蔬菜,并且自己放弃一切的风险--不如说是我们清醒地认识到自身;能力是有限的这一事实。

89. If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a pos ition to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and i t' 11 be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the inedible cantee n food or the chairman' s notorious bad taste in ties.

如果你是你讲话对象中的一员,那么你就身处一种(有利)位置宋了解对你们来说都很普遍的经历和问题,而且你对餐厅中难以下咽的食物或老总臭名昭彰的领带品位进行随意评判也是合适的。

90. There are already robot systems that can perform some kinds of brain and bo ne surgery with submillimeter accuracy--far greater precision than highly skill ed physicians can achieve with their handsaone

现在已有一些机器人系统能够进行精确到毫米以下的脑部和骨骼手术——这要比极具技巧的医生单单用手精确得多。

91. But if robots are to reach the next stage of laborsaving utility, they will have to operate with less human supervision and be able to make at least' a fe w decisions for them- selves-goals that pose a real challenge.

但是如果机器人要达到节省人工的下一个阶段,它们将必须在更少的人力监督之下工作,而且还要能够自己作出至少几个决定--这些目标才会引发真正的挑战。

92. But the human mind can glimpse a rapidly changing scene and immediately dis regard the 98 percent that is irrelevant, instantaneously focusing on the monke y at the side of a winding forest road or the single suspicious face in a big c rowd.

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 avera ged $22 a barrel for a full year, compared with $13 in 1998, this would increas e the oil import bill in rich economies by only 0.25---0.5% of GDP.

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, unli ke the rises in the 1970s, it has not occurred against the background of genera l commodity-price inflation and global excess demand.

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-assist ed suicide, the Court in effect supported the medical principle of "double effe ct", 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.

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 prin ciple will shield doctors who "until now have very, very strongly insisted that they could not give patients sufficient mediation to control their pain if tha t might hasten death."

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,如果这么做会加速他们的死亡的话。

97. On another level, many in the medical community acknowledge that the assist ed--suicide debate has been fueled in part by the despair of patients for whom modern medicine has prolonged the physical agony of dying.

在另一个层面上,很多医疗界的人承认,关于医生帮助下的自杀的讨论部分是因为病人的绝望情绪,对他们来说,现代医学已经延长了死亡的身体痛苦。

98. It identifies the undertreatment of pain and the aggressive use of "ineffec tual and forced medical procedures that may prolong and even dishonor the perio d of dying" as the twin problems of end--of--life care.

它把对疼痛的治疗不足和盲目积极使用"有可能延长死亡时间甚至让死亡过程蒙羞的无效并且强迫性的医疗手段"视为生命临终医护的两个问题。

99. In other words, there is a conventional story line in the newsroom culture that provides a backbone and a ready-made narrative structure for otherwise con fusing new.

换句话说,在媒介机构的新闻采编室文化中存在着--套约定俗成的写作模式,为新闻报道提供了主干框架以及可直接套用的叙述结构。若没有这些,新闻内容就会一团混乱,让人摸不着头脑。

100. If it did, it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values, education, and class.

如果新闻界真的注意到了问题的关键,它就应该进一步开放其多样化项目,这个项目现在还

只单纯考虑招收不同种族和性别的员工,而进一步寻找那些世界观、价值观、教育水平和社会阶层大相径庭的各种记者。

考研英语长难句分析之_特殊句式

第五讲特殊句式及长难句解析 1.简单句、并列句、复合句 从句: 名词性:主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句 形容词性:定语从句 副词性:状语从句--- 时间、地点、原因、结果、目的、条件、让步、比较、方式 2.省略句、比较结构、倒装句、分割结构 英语中还有一些特殊句式,出现在阅读理解中,势必会成为我们理解文章的障碍。但是,特殊句式还是有语法规律的,因此,如果我们能熟练应用特殊句式的语法规律,在阅读中一眼就能识别并领会这些特殊语法现象,障碍就基本克服了。 1.省略句 资料47 To err is human; to forgive, divine. Brevity is the soul of wit. 文体畅晓,其智乃见。(省略是将句子中的赘述部分删去,避免重复,使句子更简洁,加强表达内容的连贯性和逻辑性。被省略的部分大多是主语、谓语或谓语中的助动词等。文章中的省略现象会使句子成分短缺,造成句子不完整,如果看不出句子中省略了什么成分,就容易造成对文章的理解困难。 省略句一般只有当各组成部分有共同的成分才可能出现省略。对于这类句式,其难点在于发现省略成分,一旦找出并补充完整,句意理解就会大大简化。 省略句如果出现在翻译中,在翻译的时候,一定要把省略的部分翻译出来,否则会扣分。A:and 连接的并列句的省略 材料48页:Until these issues are resolved, a technology of behavior will continue to be rejected, and with it possibly the only way to solve our problems.(2002) 分析:很明显,and with it possibly the only way to solve our problem,是一个省略句,with 做状语一般表示伴随,这一个分句只有一个状语加一个名词结构,构不成一个完整的句子。实际上,与前句相同的成分才会被省略,前一句的谓语部分是:will continue to be rejected. 所以,后一分句补充完整就是:with the rejection of the technology of behavior, possibly the only way to solve our problem will continue to be rejected. 练习:1. The reasons for poverty are many, but for the most part center on illiteracy, the lack of opportunities and in some cases pure laziness. (主语the reasons) 2.He majors in English, and I, in French. (谓语major ) 3.Self-confidence gives you light when you are in dark and encouragement when you are dismay. (省略主谓) B:状语从句中的省略 规则:当主句的主语与从句主语一致时候,且从句的谓语动词是Be动词时候,从句可省略主谓。See 材料48页1. 让步状语从句2 时间状语从句 3.If handled properly and not misused, the clone technology will only bring more benefit than disaster to mankind.

考研英语长难句经典例子解析 来源:文都图书 考研英语的长难句在广大考生心中一直是一个超级大难点,数不清的生词,看不明白的句型和混乱的时态都让考生脑袋大了不止一圈儿,所以今天这篇文章就和大家分享一下攻克长难句的技巧。以《考研英语长难句解密》中的一句超长的长难句为例。 【经典长难句】 The increase in numbers of married women employed outside the home in the twentieth century had less to do with the mechanization of house work and an increase in leisure time for these women than it did with their own economic necessity and with high marriage rates that shrank the available pool of single women workers, previously, in many cases, the only women employers would hire. 【词汇突破】 have to do with…与…有关 Economic necessity 经济需求 pool of single women workers 单身女工的资源 high marriage rates 高结婚率 【参考译文】20世纪,在家庭外被雇佣的女性人数增加了,这与其说是由于家务活的机器化和闲暇时间的增加,还不如说是由于女性自身的经济需求和由于高结婚率。正是高结婚率减少了单身女工劳动力资源的数量,而在这之前很多情况下,她们是雇主们会雇佣的唯一女性。 像书中的解句顺序一样,攻克长难句首先应该拿下句中的生词和短语,这是基础,是盖房所需的砖瓦,然后再攻克句法,拿下房屋结构,这样再对照参考译文,以前觉得很难的长难句就“柳暗花明又一村”了。希望大家首先消除内心对长难句的恐惧心理,静下心来好好分析,好好学习,争取早日拿下长难句,拿下考研英语!加油!

考研英语阅读真题经典长难句必背

考研英语阅读真题经典长难句必背 阅读命题常针对长难句。所以很有必要熟悉长难句的种类以及它们各自的重点。今天先介绍长难句的把握方法,再给出一些典型的句子,建议熟读甚至背诵,以做到考试时碰到类似句子就能抓住重点。 一、长难句一般应对策略 1.从句又多又长:一个主句带多个从句,从句中又含有从句 应对方法:先抓主干,找出复杂句中最核心的主谓宾,再层层展开 2.句子中带有长长的插入成分:用插入语来交代某句话是谁说的或者是说话人的身份,或解释、说明前面的内容 应对方法:理解句子主干时,先不理会插入语,等把主句的意思看完整,然后再看插入成分 3. 分词短语、独立主格结构的干扰 应对方法:主句最重要的特征就是有完整的主谓结构,尤其是独立的谓语部分。一个看似句子的结构,如果没有独立的谓语部分,它就不是句子,而是分词短语、独立主格结构等,可以先跳过不看 4. 三种情况的混合 应对方法:从前向后,抓住独立的谓语部分,从而区分出主句和分词状语,再根据主句与从句之间的连接词,区分出主句和从句,层层扩展理解,插入语在哪个层次,就放在哪个层次理解 二、特殊句型 对于特殊句型,如虚拟语气,可以将其理解成一种反事实假设,也就是作者的观点和态度与之相反。对于分隔结构而言,其主干一般在破折号、逗号和定语从句之外,阅读时可以先跳过修饰成分。对于关联结构,要学会寻找第二部分,因为第二部分有时是句子的重点。如在not…but…之中,重点在but…之后。 三、具体句子 1、复合句 When a new movement in art attains a certain fashion, it is advisable to find out what its advocates are aiming at, for, however farfetched and unreasonable their principles may seem today, it is possible that in years to come they may be regarded

That kind of activity makes it less likely that the court's decisions will be accepted as impartial judgements. 【分析】复合句,主句为That kind of activity makes it less likely, it 是形式宾语,真正的宾语是that 引导的名词性从句。 【译文】这类行为使得法院的裁定被认为是公正判决的可能性有所下降。 【词法拓展】

1. This will be particularly true since energy pinch will make it difficult to continue agriculture in the high-energy American fashion that makes it possible to combine few farmers with high yields. 结构分析:句子的主干是This will be particularly true…。since引导原因状语从句。此从句中又套嵌一个由关系代词that引导的定语从句,修饰the high-energy American fashion。在定语从句中,that做主语,makes做谓语,it做形式宾语,不定式短语to combine few farmers with high yields则是真正的宾语(不定式短语内部to combine是主干,few farmers是宾语,with high yields 是状语),possible做宾语补足语。this指代前句中提到的这种困境。energy pinch译为“能源的匮乏”;in…fashion译为“用…方法、方式”。 译文:这种困境将是确定无疑的,因为能源的匮乏,高能量消耗这种美国耕种方式将很难在农业中继续下去,而这种耕种方式使投入少数农民就可获得高产成为可能。 2. Now since the assessment of intelligence is a comparative matter,we must be sure that the scale with which we are comparing our subjects provides a“valid”or“fair”comparison. 结构分析:句子的主干是we must be sure…。since引导原因状语从句the assessment of intelligence is a comparative matter。主句中又有that引导的宾语从句that the scale with which we are comparing our subjects provides a“valid”or“fair”comparison。此宾语从句中又套嵌一个由介词with+which引导的定语从句with which we are comparing our subjects 修饰先行词the scale。scale在此处意为“尺度、衡量标准”。 译文:既然对智力的评估相比较而言的,那么我们必须确保,在对我们的对象进行比较时,我们所用的尺度能够提供“有效的”或“公平的”比较。 精品文档

化繁为简—破解英语长难句 一长难句基本句型特征 考研英语长难句的是如何构成的?命题人员在英语原文基础上进行改造时,主要从结构上通过四种方式来使句子更加复杂: 1、复合从句 2、成分省略 3、使用插入成分 4、改变句序 这四种方式往往相互结合,形成错综复杂的句子,即混合型句子。目的是提高难度,增强干扰,打断和打乱考生的思维,从而达到检验考生阅读能力和的目标。下面分别对这四种方式进行解析。 我们要时刻牢记的一点是,考试中的长难句绝大多数为主谓宾或主系表结构,其它成分都是围绕这三个主要成分其中之一。这就是所有长难句的核心和本质。必须牢记。 最常见的是围绕主语和宾语(表语)我们要根据这些次要成分的位置和字面意义来推测它们和主干意群的逻辑关系。在切分意群时,意群的大小根据自己实际理解能力来分解。标准就是看一眼就能理解的信息(短语或者句子)。经过训练后,我们看一眼就能把握的意群会越来越多,从而完成从菜鸟到“大虾”的转变。 请看下面例句: The fact that these people live near famous caves, which contain vivid paintings from Europe?s early humans, leads him to the conclusion that they are extremely likely to be the most direct relatives of the first modern humans in Europe, who supposedly migrated from Africa. (46 words) 我们需要做的就是把句子意群切开,化繁为简,分而治之。目前大多数同学会看到后面的信息就忘掉前面的信息,一句话反复读,但总理不清头绪,浪费大量时间。 通过训练,我们将学会如何快速解开错综复杂的意群,避免信息杂乱无章,清晰地把握句子的含义。 在这里强调,在初级阶段一定要动手做标记,不迈出这一步,我们会永远停留在看到长难句就头脑混乱直到短路的阶段。 整个处理过程是从点到线再到面的,也就是要求我们必须按照信息的复杂程度来处理。即单词→意群→句子。万万不能尝试一下子理解或者翻译全句。再次强调一下,理解句子不同于做翻译题。 一、复合从句 在考研中,复合从句中的从句最常见的是定语从句。此类句子就像一棵信息树,树上生枝,枝上生杈,杈上生叶。必须找出树的主干从哪里分出枝,枝上哪里分杈,依此类推。只要抓住句子的各个连接点,就能理出句子层次,才能完全把握整个句子。 遇到长难句时,需要根据题型来决定处理的深度。如果是阅读理解通读文章时,抓大放小,抓主放次。即抓住主谓宾或主系表。如果是阅读理解问题相关句,需要快速罗列理顺主次意群,如果是翻译,则需要进一步处理意群的顺序,润色汉语的选词。 如果从句长,可以借助汉语的代词来加快理解过程。尤其是连续出现的从句里套从句,可以反复利用这些汉语代词做节点,这样就能很快理清思路。后面会有详细讲解。 二、成分省略 句子成分省略是为了避免重复。考研中一般难度大的省略不是主语和谓语的语法省略,而是为了
