1. Therefore, with every increase of knowledge and skill, wisdom becomes more necessary, for every such increase augments our capacity for realizing our purposes, and therefore augments our capacity for evil, if our purposes are unwise. (1995. 閱讀. Text 3)
【譯文】因此,隨著知識和技能的增長,智慧變得越發(fā)必要,因為知識和技能的每點增長都會增強(qiáng)我們實現(xiàn)目的的能力,如果我們的目的不夠明智,那么同時,我們邪念的力量也會隨之增強(qiáng)。
【析句】with every increase of knowledge and skill作伴隨狀語,主句wisdom becomes more necessary, 后面是for引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句,every such increase augments our capacity..., and therefore augments our capacity..., and連接兩個并列簡單句共同構(gòu)成原因狀語從句,最后是if引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句。
2. And someone with a history of doing more rather than less will go into old age more cognitively sound than someone who has not had an active mind. (1995. 閱讀. Text 1)
【譯文】多動腦筋的人,進(jìn)入老年以后,比起頭腦遲鈍的人的認(rèn)知能力更加健全。
【析句】復(fù)合句,主句someone will go into old age more sound than someone,with a history of doing more than less作伴隨狀語,who has not had an active mind作someone的定語從句。
3. It is said that the English man objects to this type of existence, but if the case is such, he does in fact differ from the inhabitants of most countries of the world today. (1995. 閱讀. Text 3)
【譯文】據(jù)說英國人反對這種居住方式,但是倘若情況如此的話,那么,英國人確實不同于今天世界上大多數(shù)國家的居民。
【析句】復(fù)合句的主干由but連接前后兩部分組成,前句It is said that the English man objects to..., it作形式主語,that主句從句是真正的主語,后句主句he does deffer from the inhabitants,if the case is such作條件狀語從句。
