英语四级阅读长难句结构技巧分析

英语四级阅读长难句结构技巧分析

英语四级阅读长难句结构技巧分析英语四级阅读长难句结构技巧分析导语:含有分隔结构的复杂句通常是指那些句子结构主谓、谓宾、宾补之间存在着其他成分。

而有时这些介入成分又较长,从而使本来应该紧联在一起得句子成分被分隔开了。

我们一起来看看这些句子应该怎么做吧。

含有分隔结构的复杂句通常是指那些句子结构主谓、谓宾、宾补之间存在着其他成分。

而有时这些介入成分又较长,从而使本来应该紧联在一起得句子成分被分隔开了。

另外还有一种分隔结构是同位语和定语同它们所修饰得成分分隔,由于作同位语和作定语得句子太长,而后面得部分又太短,为了保证全句意思表达得完整性常常把同位语或定语放到句子最后,形成分隔得结构。

一般来说分隔结构本身不难辨认,但当句子较长,成分较多,被分隔得部分又相距较远时就容易造成理解障碍,而且常常被分隔得成分又恰恰是句子得主干。

因此准确判断分隔结构,理顺句子主干就成了理解这类句子得关键。

Exercise:We live in a time when, more than ever before in history, people are moving about。

Evening had now come, the last of Adolf Hitler’s life。

Several neighbors hope to find safety in the only bomb shelter on their street when an announcement comes over the radio that enemy missiles are approaching。

要点分析和参考译文要点:定语从句“people are moving about”被比较状语“more than ever before in history”分隔。

此现象为“分隔定语”参考译文:我们生活在一个四处奔波甚于历史上任何时期得时代。

然而,通过一些技巧和策略,我们可以更好地应对这些句子的翻译,保持准确性和流畅性。

本文将介绍一些常见的长难句结构,并提供一些翻译技巧以解析和翻译这些句子。

一、定语从句定语从句是一个常见的长难句结构,它用于对名词进行修饰。

在翻译定语从句时,我们需要把握好从句与主句之间的关系,并确保翻译准确和连贯。

以下是一些处理定语从句的技巧:1. 引导词的选择:在翻译定语从句时,我们需要根据语境和句意来选择合适的引导词。

例句1: The book that/which I bought yesterday is very interesting.翻译: 我昨天买的那本书非常有趣。

例句2: The man who/that is sitting over there is my uncle.翻译: 那个坐在那边的人是我的叔叔。

2. 关系代词的省略:在定语从句中,关系代词常常可以省略,这在英语中是常见的现象,但在翻译时需要注意补充。

例句1: The car (which/that) I bought last week broke down.翻译:我上周买的那辆车出了故障。

例句2: The girl (who/that) I met at the party is a doctor.翻译:我在派对上遇到的那个女孩是一名医生。

二、倒装句倒装句是英语中常见的句子结构之一,它与正常的主语-谓语-宾语结构不同,而是将谓语动词或助动词放在主语之前。

处理倒装句的翻译时,以下是一些建议:1. 注意句子结构:在翻译倒装句时,我们一定要注意句子的结构和语序。

对于部分倒装,可以通过调整句子结构来适应目标语言的语序。

英语四级四级长难句

英语四级四级长难句

四级长难句分析在大学英语四级考试的阅读理解中,我们经常会遇到一些长而难的句子。

长难句通常含有较多、较长的修饰成分、并列成分或从句。

长难句的丰富内容和复杂结构往往会导致理解的困难。

理解长难句的关键是了解长难句的类型,理清句子成分,抓住句子中的关键部分。

首先我们先来了解制造长句的几个要点一词汇:核心词汇+普通词汇二语法结构1.从句:定语、同位语、表语、宾语、状语2.并列结构3.插入语4.倒装5.强调6.省略:分词作定语,独立主格结构2008-61.But the real truth is that we don't know enough to relieve global warming, and —— without major technological breakthroughs —— we can't do much about it.2. The trouble with the global warming debate is that it has become a moral problem when it's really an engineering one.3.Privacy economist Alessandro Acauisti has run a series of tests that reveal peo ple will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get the ir hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon(优惠卷)4. The digital bread crumbs(碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like.2007-124.The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson.5. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade, I had to accept the fact that I was co-opting my daughter’s experience.6. While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked.2007-67. While you need to employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallelno matter how much we might like to think so.8. Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us encounter. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting (稍纵即逝的) thought, the thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in raw form, no one is likely to understand. You must learn to create first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thinking that it is.9. The practice that can help you past your learned bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls “free writing.”10. As the words begin to flow, the ideas will come from the shadows and let themselves be captured on your notepad or your screen.11. Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly.12. Most likely, you will believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the pages as the deadline draws near.13. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated by men.14. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus (相对于) right brain, or nature versus nurture (培育), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.15. Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations: I don’t talk about that anymore.16. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender issues.2006-1217. In fact, New York’s municipal water for more than a century was called the champagne of tap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity.18. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were 400 times more expensive.19. According to an article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.20. Regardless of how it’s sold, the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.21. As we have seen, the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease—especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors, such as poor eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise.22. Imagine a person who is about the right weight, but does not eat very nutritious foods, who feels OK but exercises only occasionally, who goes to work every day, but is not an outstanding worker, who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk, and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts, but sleeps a lot and often feels tired.23. The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely “not ill” and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs.24. In recent years, however, some health specialists have begun to apply the terms “well”and “wellness” only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health.25. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap (缺陷) may be “well,” in this new sense, if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical limitations.26. And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living, the concept of wellness can havea beneficial impact on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.2006-627. But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time.28. Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods.▲29. We’re saying we want you to work in these places, we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are, and then when it’s convenient for us, or when we can try to make a point in terms of national security, especially after Sept. 11, then you’re disposable.30. If Sept. 11 had never happened, the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone on quietly living in America, probably indefinitely.2006-6旧31.Women’s education may be unusual territory for economists, but enhancing women’s contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue.32.Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else’s family and bear children.33.Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and art kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school-the prophecy (预言) becomes self-fulfilling, trapping women in a vicious circle of neglect.34.She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance.35.The car is fitted with a remote immobiliser (锁止器), and a radio signal from a control centre miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine off, he will not be able to start it again.36.Modern cars are far tougher to steal, as their engine management computer won’t allow them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition (点火) key.2005-1237.While here’s on question that continuous stress is harmful, several studies suggest that challenging situations in which you’re able to rise to the occasion can be good for you.38.In a 2001 study of 158 hospital nurses, those who faced considerable work demands but coped with the challenge were more likely to say they were in good health than those who felt they get the job done.39. Then there is the general, all covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that was particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again.40. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not resort to these pseudo-apologies.实战演练1.But the research paper also gives you a chance to individualize a school assignment, to suit a piece of work to your own interests and abilities, to show others what you cando.2.To determine the consequences of sleep deficit, researchers have put subjects througha set of psychological and performance tests requiring them, for instance, to addcolumns of numbers or recall a passage read to them only minutes earlier.3.Recent stories in the newspapers and magazines suggest that teaching and researchcontradict each other, that research plays too prominent a part in academic promotions, and that teaching is badly underemphasized.4.House had to be sited “within easy walking distance of the railroad station,” assome old residents would point out; and only those wealthy enough to afford a horse and a carriage dared to penetrate farther into the open country.5.White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likelyto have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.6.But you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things,and you will therefore not be offended if your ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours.7.College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students interfere witheach other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the intense competition for admission to graduate school.8.This means that no sooner has he got used to one routine than he has to change to another,so that much of his time is spent neither working nor sleeping very efficiently.9.The recent growth of export surpluses on the world food market has certainly beenunexpectedly great, partly because a strange sequence of two successful grain harvests.10.It would have amazed the brightest minds of the 18th century Enlightenment (启蒙运动) to be told by any of us how little we know and how bewildering seems the way ahead.11. All high school graduates ought to go, says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence, because college will help them earn more money, become “better” people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.12. The shops are overstocked with food not only because there is more food available, but also because people, frightened by high prices, are buying less of it.13. Scientists, like other human beings, have their hopes and fears, their passions and disappointments and their strong emotions may sometimes interrupt the course of clear thinking and sound practice.14. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem.15. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise—and as a result, we are ageing unnecessarily soon.二、总结——长难句分析步骤1、首先确定句子是简单句、复合句或并列句。

(07.12 Passage 1) 分析主干:courses can run (on...)Although 引导让步状语从句。

investment in...表示“在......方面的投资”。

英语四级长难句解析

英语四级长难句解析

四级阅读理解难,难在长难句。

如何破解长难句,是做好四级阅读理解的关键一环。

破解长难句通常采用方法是找准主谓宾去除定状补,笔者认为,抓住长难句特点进行庖丁解牛是破解四级阅读理解长难句的又一制胜法宝。

四级阅读理解长难句有以下六大特点:主语拉长一般来讲,汉语主语比较简短。

相比之下,英语中主语一旦拉长,就会增加读者的理解难度。

解决方法:有效分解主谓成分,断开之后各个击破。

例如:The streams, lakes, meadows(草地), mountain ridges and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for balck bears have also attracted more people to the region. (2005.6)首先,把原句子分解为两个简单独立的句子:(1)The streams, lakes, meadows(草地), mountain ridges and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for balck bears溪流、湖泊、草地、山脉、森林,使得Pocono 成为黑熊理想的栖息地(2)have also attracted more people to the region. 吸引了越来越多的人们来到这里。

其次,句子整合翻译:溪流、湖泊、草地、山脉、森林,这些不仅使得Pocono成为黑熊理想的栖息地,而且吸引了越来越多的人们来到这里。

分词短语打头,句子呈现三段(或三段以上)的长句式分词短语(包括现在分词和过去分词)做状语,这一句式比较常见,读者阅读时由于要区分短语和主语之间的逻辑关系,所以理解上有难度。

并且分词短语本身往往由于掺入了插入语成分,理解上就更为困难。

解决方法:理清主动和被动关系。

一般来说现在分词与主语之间是主动关系;而过去分词与主语之间是被动关系。

2017年大学英语四级高级语法:长难句分析实例练习
长句:eg. Yale professor and Harvard Hughes Medical Institute investigator Tian Xu directs a research center focused on the genetics of human disease at Shanghai's Fudan University in collaboration with faculty colleagues from both schools.(0712阅读)
由徐天教授(耶鲁大学教授,霍华德.休斯医学院研究员)负责的人类疾病遗传学研究中心坐落在上海的复旦大学,但其工作人员却由耶鲁和复旦两所大学共同派人组成。

eg. Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term, about 78 years for men in Australia , you'll die on average five years before a woman.(0812阅读)
假定你有幸活到生命的自然尽头--在澳大利亚男性大概是活到78岁--你平均也要比女性早去世五年。

eg. When we begin to question our assumptions and challenge what we think we have learnd from our past, from the media , peers, family, friends, etc., we begin to realize that some of our conclusions are flawed(有缺陷的) or contrary to our fundamental values.(0906阅读) 分析:when引导的是时间状语从句,question(质疑);challenge 的宾语从句;这个句子就是一个when引导的时间状语从句,又分别在主从句当中各嵌入了一个宾语从句。

译文:当我们开始质疑问我们的假设,并且向我们所认为的我们
从过去的经历、媒体、同辈、家人及朋友那里学到的东西发出挑战的时候,我们就会开始意识到我们的独断决定是有缺陷的,或者说与我们的基本价值是相违背的。

eg. Coincident with concerns about the accelerating loss of species and habitats has been a growing appreciation of the importance of biological diversity, the number of species in a particular ecosystem, to the health of the Earth and human well-being.
分析:这个句子有三点需要搞清楚。

首先,这个句子是一个倒装结构;句子真正的主语是appreciatio- n,其次,要弄清楚to the health....中的to是与哪个词构成逻辑语义联系。

它是与前面的名词importance 构成呼应,即the importance of .... to the health..., 即“对...健康的重要意义。

”最后,要知道the num -ber of species in a particular ecosystem 的作用是充当同位语,解释biological diversity这个概念。

译文:人们对物种及其栖息地正加速丧失表示担忧,与此同时,人们一直越来越意识到生物多样性--即在一个特定生态系统中物种的总数--对于地球乃至我们人类健康的重要意义。
