在托福閱讀的備考中,同學們不要忘了積累閱讀經(jīng)驗哦。出國留學網(wǎng)托福欄目為大家?guī)?016年托福閱讀高頻長難句解析,希望能幫到大家!
托福長難句分析:股東階層代表
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.
結構分析:這個句子的主干是…manipulation…increased the numbers and importance of shareholders as a class…。其中an element 是class 的同位語。representing irresponsible wealth 是現(xiàn)在分詞,作定語修飾前面的element, detached from是過去分詞作后置定語,相當于是省略了which is 的定語從句。and 連接兩個detached from, 都修飾前面的wealth。
參考譯文:這種大規(guī)模地、非個人性地對資本和企業(yè)進行操作,極大地增加了作為一個階層的股東的數(shù)量和重要性,作為國民生活的一部分,股東階層代表著不承擔責任的財富與土地擁有者應盡義務的分離,而且同樣與企業(yè)的責任管理分離。
托福長難句分析:房地產(chǎn)開發(fā)熱潮
The new accessibility of land around the periphery of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled what we now know as urban sprawl.
(賓語從句what we now know as)
現(xiàn)在可以獲得這些環(huán)繞幾乎每個大城市邊緣地區(qū)的土地,這一可能性激發(fā)了一場房地產(chǎn)開發(fā)的熱潮并造成了我們現(xiàn)在稱為城區(qū)無計劃擴展的現(xiàn)象。
分句1:The new accessibility of land around the periphery of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled
分句2:what we now know as urban sprawl
分句1嵌套分句 2,即分句1是主句,分句 2是賓語從句,主句結構經(jīng)過精簡應該是 The new accessibility of land sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled urban sprawl。
本句的理解困難還來自于抽象詞fuel,它作為名詞的含義廣為人知,是能源、燃料,作為動詞的時候的意思就可以引申為促使、造成。
