解析：(三个what引导的从句，第一个作主语，第二个与第三个都作宾语；that至句末的部分作realization的同位语)

分句1：What is particularly meaningful to anthropologists is the realization

分句2：although the materials available to a society may to some extent limit or influence what it can do artistically

分句3：the materials by no means determine what is done．

2和3并列

1和2，3嵌套，2和3是1中the realization的同位语

2. As a result，claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore．

解析：(同位语从句claims that…)

分句2：claims have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore

分句2嵌套分句1，分句1作为分句2主语的同位语从句嵌套在分句2中。因此本句的主句是claims have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore. （那些观点广为人知，并成为一些民间说法的基础。）同位语从句是that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health：只食用绿色食品就能防治疾病或增进健康

分句2：that there were prehistoric mammoths wandering around the unknown region

分句3：and that somewhere in its wilds was a mountain of rock salt 80 by 45 miles in extent

分句4：the two captains set out

分句1和分句4构成倒装，正常的语序应该是分句4+分句1，即the two captains set out Amid rumors。

考研英语长难句：名词性从句-同位语从句

考研英语长难句：名词性从句-同位语从句所谓同位语，就是用来补充说明名词的成分。当我们用一个完整的句子来补充说明名词时，即构成同位语从句。所以同位语从句都是位于一个名词后面，用来进一步说明前面的名词的内容，这个名词就是同位语的先行词。 1.它一般跟在某些名词后面，用以说明该名词表示的具体内容。后面可以接同位语从句的名词通常有news，idea，fact，promise，question，doubt，thought，hope，message，suggestion，words（消息），possibility，decision等（一般的“抽象”名词都可用），例如： 【第1句】 I’ve come from Mr Wang with a message that he won’t be able to see you this afternoon． 我从王先生那里来，他让我告诉你他今天下午不能来看你了。 2.英语中引导同位语从句的词通常有连词that（不能省略），whether，连接代词what，who。连接副词how，when，where等。（注：if不能引导同位语从句。）例如：【第2句】 He must answer the question whether he agrees with it or not. 他必须回答他是否同意这样一个问题。 We haven’t yet settled the question where we are going to spend our summer vacation.

到哪儿去度暑假，这个问题我们还没有决定。 Our teacher gave us some advice how we (should) use the computer. 老师给我们提出了一些如何使用电脑的建议。 3.有时同位语从句可以不紧跟在说明的名词后面，而被别的词隔开。The thought came to him that maybe the enemy had fled the city．他突然想起敌人可能已经逃出城了。 1. A century ago, Freud formulated his revolutionary theory that dreams were the disguised shadows of our unconscious desires and fears; by the late 1970s, neurologists had switched to thinking of them as just “mental noise”—the random by-products of the neural-repair work that goes on during sleep. (2005 Text 3) 【念念有词】 I)formulate v. 制定；规划（策略，提议）；（简练或系统地）阐述；用公式表示。formulate a policy / theory / plan / proposal 制定一项政策/理论/计划/提议；She has lots of good ideas, but she has difficulty formulating them.（她有很多好想法，但很难把它们表达出来。）

实例深度分析如何看懂托福阅读长难句

实例深度分析如何看懂托福阅读长难句 朗阁海外考试研究中心徐露露 就目前大陆考区学生所接触的北美地区四类热门考试（TOEFL， SAT， GRE， GMAT）的难度而言，TOEFL的难度系数是最低的。在实际教学中，笔者发现经常有一些基础很弱的同学在阅读托福文章的过程中喜欢把所有生词的汉语意思全查出来，但是做题的正确率依然很低。在单词的意思已经知道的情况下为什么还是不会做题？很多基础差的同学虽然了解了每个单词的意思，但是当这些独立的单词组合成一句长难句的时候就看不懂了，也就是长难句分析能力太差。长难句分析能力差不仅会影响阅读速度和阅读准确性，而且还会影响某些题型的正确率。因为在托福阅读十大题型当中，句子简化题、事实信息题和推理题这几种题型都直接或间接地在考察学生分析长难句的能力。朗阁海外考试研究中心的专家认为，在面对长难句时，考生一定不能“只见树木（单词），不见森林（结构）”，句子主干部分永远比修饰部分要重要。下面就来谈一谈托福阅读真题当中的长难句结构类型。 一、定语从句 首先，定语从句应该是托福阅读最喜欢考察的结构，一般可以将其分为两种：单层定语从句结构和多层定语从句结构。 1. 单层定语从句结构：指整个句中包含一个或两个并列关系的定语从句。 例：包含一个定语从句的情况 In the late 1700s James Watt designed an efficient and commercially viable steam engine that was soon applied to a variety of industrial uses as it became cheaper to use. （TPO 26 Energy and the Industrial Revolution） 解析：该句是that引导的定语从句 固定搭配： （be） applied to应用于 a variety of很多…。。. 词汇： viable=practicable=feasible=practical=possible （adj.）切实可行的 variety=category=group=lot （n.）种类 翻译：十七世纪末，James Watt设计了一种高效并且可商用的蒸汽机，随着其价格降低，很快被应用于各种工业。

名词性从句

名词性从句 一.什么是从句？ 引导词+句子——也就是引导词+主语+谓语。 二.什么是名词性从句？ 1.名词充当的成分 The movie looks terrific. ——主语 I appreciate the mather. ——宾语 She is a ghost. ——表语 I enjoy the part, the end. ——同位语（同样位置） 例：Liu, a physically attractive individual, keeps my teacher. 只要在作文中见到名词，都可以在后面再加一个名词，作为他的同位语，前后要用逗号隔开。 例：Pollution, a universal issue throughout the world, becomes increasingly grave under modern conditions. Confidence, a Chinese conventional virtue,keeps exceedingly(strikingly\more than) indispensable under modern conditions. 作文技巧： 万能同位语——全球共同话题（坏的话题），中华民族传统美德（好的话题）2.什么是名词性从句。 What I saw looks terrific. ——主语从句 I appreciate what she did. ——宾语从句 She is who we should admire. ——表语从句 I enjoy the part that she knew the truth. ——同位语从句

(完整版)长难句重难点整理

长难句（1） 考研英语长难句四大类型及五大特点 一、长难句的特点 英语长句一般指的是各种复杂句，复杂句里可能有多个从句，从句与从句之间的关系可能包孕、嵌套，也可能并列或平行。从功能来说，英语有三大复合句，即：①名词性从句，包括主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句和同位语从句;②形容词性从句，即我们平常所说的定语从句;③状语从句。 英语长难句五大特点： 1)结构复杂，逻辑层次多; 2)常须根据上下文作词义的引申; 3)常须根据上下文对指代词的指代关系做出判断; 4)并列成分多; 5)修饰语多，特别是后置定语很长;

二、考研英语长难句分析类别 第一类：复杂修饰成分 句子本不难，但是修饰成分多且长。1、从句(定语、状语、同位语从句等)修饰;2、介词短语修饰;3、分词修饰;4、不定式修饰。经常是在同一个句子里既有从句又有介词短语，且都不止一个。 例：The methods that a community devises to perpetuate itself come into being to preserve aspects of the cultural legacy that community perceives as essential. 分析：主语：The methods;谓语：come into being;that a community devises to perpetuate itself为定语从句，修饰the methods;不定式to 表示目的状语;that community perceives as essential为定语从句，修饰the cultural legacy。 译文：一个社会设计出来保存自己的方法得以形成来保持那个社会认为最重要的一些方面。 第二类：大段的插入与或同位语，打断读者的思路，割裂前后之

2020年托福阅读长难句100句：水循环圈 Perhapsthe fact many of these first studies considered only algae of a size that couldbe collected in a net, a practice that overlooked the smaller phytoplanktonthat we now know grazers are most likely to feed on, led to a de-emphasis ofthe role of grazers in subsequent research. 这个句子谓语动词的识别稍有难度。 1. the fact 后描述的部分是这个fact的具体内容，所以the fact后为同位语从句; 2. a practice ...to feed on 作同位语。only algae of a size后出现的that could be collected ina net 对前者解释说明作用，为典型的后者定语从句; 3. 类似的that overlooked the smallerphytoplankton that we now know grazers are most likely to feed on 修饰说明a practice, 即为后者的后者定语从句。其中 that we now know grazersare most likely to feed on 为the smaller phytoplankton 的后者定语从句。仔细分析，we now know 类似插入语，如果在之前 加as则更像比较状语从句。当然这个定语从句也能够写成 on which we now knowgrazers are most likely to feed; 4. led to 为整句谓语动词，于是 a de-emphasis 为整句宾语。 整句主干很简单，即Perhaps the fact let to a de-emphasis.但主语后跟了自带一个小级别定语从句的后置定语从句，接着又跟了 个自带一个后置定语从句(同样嵌套了自己的定语从句)的同位语，读 句子过程中，我们的思路容易被这些非主干成分打断。 例句2
