第二部分                阅读、翻译长难句结构分析

一、了解句子主要成分:
1.        主语、表语、宾语
(1) What is harder to establish is whether the productivity revolution that businessmen assume they are presiding over is for real.                        (从句-----1998)
商人们自认为他们领导了一场生产力革命,这场革命是否确有其事,这一点更加难以确定。
(2)The trouble is that part of the recent acceleration is due to the usual rebound that occurs at this point in a business cycle, and so is not conclusive evidence of a revival in the underlying trend.                                                                        (从句-----1998)
问题在于,近年发生的生产力快速增长部分是由于商业周期通常到了这时候就会出现的反弹造成的,因而它不是经济复苏潜在趋势的结论性证据。
(3) Strengthening economic growth, at the same time as winter grips the northern hemisphere, could push the price higher still in the short term.                 (动名词-----2002)               
强劲的经济增长势头,随着北半球冬季的到来,有可能在短期内使石油价格涨得更高。
(4) 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 as normal.     (不定式-----2000)
当一场新的艺术运动形成某种时尚时,理应弄清其倡导者的目标所在,因为无论他们的准则在今天看来是多么牵强附会、不可思议,将来都有可能被视为正常的。

2.        定语
(1) One more reason not to lose sleep over the rise in oil prices is that, unlike the rises in the 1970s, it has not occurred against the background of general commodity price inflation and global excess demand.                                                        (不定式-----2002)
另外一个不应因油价上升而失眠的原因是,与20世纪70年代不同,这次油价上升不是发生在普遍的物价暴涨及全球需求过旺背景之下。
The ability to solve any problem or even to recognize that a problem exists depends on memory.
解决任何问题,甚至是识别问题存在的能力都取决于记忆。
(2) The examples of Virtual Vineyards, Amazon. com, and other pioneers show that a Web site selling the right kind of products with the right mix of interactivity, hospitality, and security will attract online customers.                                                (分词----1998)
像Virtual Vineyards 和Amazon.com及其他开拓者的例子表明:一个销售适类商品的网站,如果将互动、热情服务、安全合理结合,肯定会吸引网上用户的。
(3) Moreover, most of the changes that companies make are intended to keep them profitable, and this need not always mean increasing productivity;switching to new markets or improving quality can matter just as much.                                         (从句-----1998)
另外,公司的大部分改革是为了赢利,而达到赢利的目的不一定非要提高生产力,转入新的市场或改善产品质量也会有同样的功效。
(4) The individual now has more information available than any generation, and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated, timeconsuming and sometimes even overwhelming.                        (形容词――1995)
今天,个人可获得的信息比任何时代的人都多,而要找到一条与自己问题相关的信息既复杂又耗时,有时甚至相当困难。


二、把握结构特征

1.根据词汇搭配辨认结构
(1) It identifies the undertreatment of pain and the aggressive use of “ineffectual and forced medical procedures that may prolong and even dishonor the period of dying” as the twin problems of end-of-life care.                                                        (2002)
报告确定了医院临终关怀护理中存在的两个问题:对病痛处理不力和大胆使用“无效而强制性的医疗程序”,这些程序可能会延长死亡期,甚至会让病人临终时痛苦不堪。
(2)In response, schools are modifying their programs, adapting instruction to children who are exceptional, to those who cannot profit substantially from regular programs.
作为回应,学校也在调整课程安排,使授课能够适应特殊儿童,适应那些不能从常规课程中真正获益的儿童的需要。
(3) I have been transformed from a passionate advocate of the philosophy of “having it all”, preached by Linda Kelsey for the past seven years in the pages of She magazine, into a woman who is happy to settle for a bit of everything.                                 (2001)
我已从一个“获得一切”哲学(琳达•凯茜过去七年中在《女性》这本杂志所宣扬的)的狂热支持者,变成了一个乐于接受任何东西只要一丁点的女人。
(4) But however amazed our descendants may be at how far from Utopia we were, they will look just like us.                                                (2000)
但是,不管我们的子孙后代对我们离乌托邦的理想境界还差多远有多么惊讶,他们的样子会同我们差不了多少。

2. 根据语法规则辨认结构
(1) While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline—after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late’80s—and is still linked to the politics of thrift, in Britain, at least among the middle class downshifters of my acquaintance, we have different reasons for seeking to simplify our lives.
在美国,这种趋势一开始是对经济衰落所做出的一种反应——出现于80年代后期缩小经济规模所引起的大量人员冗余之后——现在这种趋势仍被认为与节俭政治有关联;而在英国,至少在我所认识的愿意简化生活的中产阶级中,却有着不同的缘由去寻求使自己的生活简单化。
(2) Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have diminished.                                                        (2000)
人与人之间的差异和利用差异进行自然选择的机会再一次失去。
(3) The change met the technical requirements of the new age by engaging a large professional element and prevented the decline in efficiency that so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms in the second and third generation after the energetic founders.
这种变革通过聘用大量专业人员来适应新时代的技术要求,并防止了效率的降低,而在过去这种低效率使得许多旧式家族企业在精力充沛的创业者之后的第二、三代手中破产倒闭。

三、插入:
1.This, for those as yet unaware of such a disadvantage, refers to discrimination against those whose surnames begin with a letter in the lower half of the alphabet.                 (2004)
对于那些还没有意识到存在这种不公平待遇的人,可以这么向他们解释:它指的是歧视那些姓氏字母在字母表中排得靠后的人。
2.Here is an example, which I heard at a nurses’ convention, of a story which works well because the audience all shared the same view of doctors.                        (2002)
下面举一个例子,它是我在一个护士大会上听到的。这个故事效果很好,因为听众对医生都有同样的看法。
3.Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.                                        (1994)
许多其他商业企业,从剧院到杂志社、从燃气电器公司到牛奶加工厂都通过计算机的使用给消费者更好、效率更高的服务。
4.“Scientific” creationism, which is being pushed by some for “equal time” in the classrooms whenever the scientific accounts of evolution are given, is based on religion, not science. (1996)
        所谓“科学的”造物主义理论的基础是宗教而不是科学,但在教学时每当对进化论进行科学论述时,有些人就用它来争得“同等数量的学时”。
5.If its message were confined merely to information—and that in itself would be difficult if not impossible to achieve,for even a detail such as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtly persuasive—advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention.  (1995)
        如果广告仅仅限于提供信息,那么就太枯燥乏味了,没有人再留意它,当然这样做本身不是不可能但是很难作到,因为甚至像选择衬衣颜色那样的细节也是具有劝诱性的。
6.The existence of the giant clouds was virtually required for the Big Bang, first put forward in the 1920s, to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the cosmos.   (1998)
巨大的宇宙云的存在,实际上是20年代首创的大爆炸论得以保持其宇宙起源论的主导地位不可缺少的。
7.In the early industrialized countries of Europe the process of industrialization—with all the farreaching changes in social patterns that followed—was spread over nearly a century, whereas       nowadays a developing nation may undergo the same process in a decade or so.                (2000)
在先期实现工业化的欧洲国家中,其工业化进程以及随之而来的各种深刻的社会结构变革,持续了大约一个世纪之久,而如今一个发展中国家在十年左右就可能完成这个过程。
8.The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science.            (2003)
强调收集第一手资料,加上在分析过去和现在文化形态时采用跨文化视角,使得这一研究成为一门独特并且非常重要的社会科学。
9.With regard to Futurist poetry, however, the case is rather difficult, for whatever Futurist poetry may be—even admitting that the theory on which it is based may be right—it can hardly be classed as Literature.                                (2000)
然而,就未来派诗歌而言,情况却大不相同,因为无论未来派诗歌为何物,即使承认其理论根据可能正确,也很难称之为文学。
10.Thus, the anthropological concept of “culture”, like the concept of “set” in mathematics, is an abstract concept which makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.                                                        (2003)
因此,人类学中的“文化”概念就像数学中“集”的概念一样,是一个抽象概念。它使大量的具体研究和认识成为可能。

人名、身份作为插入
11.The true enemies of science, argues Paul Ehrlich of Stanford University, a pioneer of environmental studies, are those who question the evidence supporting global warming, the depletion of the ozone layer and other consequences of industrial growth.   (2003)
作为环境研究的先驱者,斯坦福大学的保罗•埃利希认为,科学的真正的敌人是那些对全球变暖、臭氧层稀薄和工业增长带来的其他后果的证据提出质疑的人。
12.Almost immediately word flashed on the Internet and was picked up, half a world away, by John Hofsess, executive director of the Right to Die Society of Canada.     (1997)
几乎同时,该消息就出现在互联网上,被身处地球另一端的加拿大死亡权利组织的执行主席约翰•霍夫塞斯收到。
13.For Lloyd Nickson, a 54-year-old Darwin resident suffering from lung cancer, the NT Rights of Terminally Ill law means he can get on with living without the haunting fear of his suffering: a terrifying death from his breathing condition.                                (1997)
对于居住于达尔文现年54岁的肺癌患者利奥德•尼克森来说,这个法案意味着他可以平静地生活下去,而无需整天惧怕即将来临的苦难:因呼吸困难而在煎熬中痛苦地死去。
14.Nancy Dubler, director of Montefiore Medical Center, contends that the principle will shield doctors who “until now have very, very strongly insisted that they could not give patients sufficient mediation to control their pain if that might hasten death”.                (2002)
蒙特非奥里医疗中心主任南希•道布勒认为,这项原则将保护一些医生,他们直到现在还坚持说,在大量药物可能加速病人死亡的情况下,他们总不能给病人开足够的药来帮助他们止痛。
在新闻报道体裁的文章中引用某专家的言论,多采用这种句式结构,即人名+职位+动词(contend, maintain,hold,believe等)+that引导的宾语从句。本文在第四段和第五段两次出现。

15.The great interest in exceptional children shown in public education over the past three decades indicates the strong feeling in our society that all citizens, whatever their special conditions, deserve the opportunity to fully develop their capabilities.     (1994)

问题在于,近年发生的生产力快速增长部分是由于商业周期通常到了这时候就会出现的反弹造成的,因而它不是经济复苏潜在趋势的结论性证据。
(3) Strengthening economic growth, at the same time as winter grips the northern hemisphere, could push the price higher still in the short term.                 (动名词-----2002)

当一场新的艺术运动形成某种时尚时,理应弄清其倡导者的目标所在,因为无论他们的准则在今天看来是多么牵强附会、不可思议,将来都有可能被视为正常的。

4.        定语
(1) One more reason not to lose sleep over the rise in oil prices is that, unlike the rises in the 1970s, it has not occurred against the background of general commodity price inflation and global excess demand.                                                        (不定式-----2002)
另外一个不应因油价上升而失眠的原因是,与20世纪70年代不同,这次油价上升不是发生在普遍的物价暴涨及全球需求过旺背景之下。
The ability to solve any problem or even to recognize that a problem exists depends on memory.
解决任何问题,甚至是识别问题存在的能力都取决于记忆。
(2) The examples of Virtual Vineyards, Amazon. com, and other pioneers show that a Web site selling the right kind of products with the right mix of interactivity, hospitality, and security will attract online customers.                                                (分词----1998)
像Virtual Vineyards 和Amazon.com及其他开拓者的例子表明:一个销售适类商品的网站,如果将互动、热情服务、安全合理结合,肯定会吸引网上用户的。
(3) Moreover, most of the changes that companies make are intended to keep them profitable, and this need not always mean increasing productivity;switching to new markets or improving quality can matter just as much.                                         (从句-----1998)
另外,公司的大部分改革是为了赢利,而达到赢利的目的不一定非要提高生产力,转入新的市场或改善产品质量也会有同样的功效。

今天,个人可获得的信息比任何时代的人都多,而要找到一条与自己问题相关的信息既复杂又耗时,有时甚至相当困难。


二、把握结构特征

1.根据词汇搭配辨认结构
(1) It identifies the undertreatment of pain and the aggressive use of “ineffectual and forced medical procedures that may prolong and even dishonor the period of dying” as the twin problems of end-of-life care.                                                        (2002)
报告确定了医院临终关怀护理中存在的两个问题:对病痛处理不力和大胆使用“无效而强制性的医疗程序”,这些程序可能会延长死亡期,甚至会让病人临终时痛苦不堪。
(2)In response, schools are modifying their programs, adapting instruction to children who are exceptional, to those who cannot profit substantially from regular programs.
作为回应,学校也在调整课程安排,使授课能够适应特殊儿童,适应那些不能从常规课程中真正获益的儿童的需要。
(3) I have been transformed from a passionate advocate of the philosophy of “having it all”, preached by Linda Kelsey for the past seven years in the pages of She magazine, into a woman who is happy to settle for a bit of everything.                                 (2001)
我已从一个“获得一切”哲学(琳达•凯茜过去七年中在《女性》这本杂志所宣扬的)的狂热支持者,变成了一个乐于接受任何东西只要一丁点的女人。
(4) But however amazed our descendants may be at how far from Utopia we were, they will look just like us.                                                (2000)
但是,不管我们的子孙后代对我们离乌托邦的理想境界还差多远有多么惊讶,他们的样子会同我们差不了多少。

2. 根据语法规则辨认结构
(1) While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline—after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late’80s—and is still linked to the politics of thrift, in Britain, at least among the middle class downshifters of my acquaintance, we have different reasons for seeking to simplify our lives.
在美国,这种趋势一开始是对经济衰落所做出的一种反应——出现于80年代后期缩小经济规模所引起的大量人员冗余之后——现在这种趋势仍被认为与节俭政治有关联;而在英国,至少在我所认识的愿意简化生活的中产阶级中,却有着不同的缘由去寻求使自己的生活简单化。
(2) Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have diminished.                                                        (2000)
人与人之间的差异和利用差异进行自然选择的机会再一次失去。
(3) The change met the technical requirements of the new age by engaging a large professional element and prevented the decline in efficiency that so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms in the second and third generation after the energetic founders.
这种变革通过聘用大量专业人员来适应新时代的技术要求,并防止了效率的降低,而在过去这种低效率使得许多旧式家族企业在精力充沛的创业者之后的第二、三代手中破产倒闭。

三、插入:
1.This, for those as yet unaware of such a disadvantage, refers to discrimination against those whose surnames begin with a letter in the lower half of the alphabet.                 (2004)
对于那些还没有意识到存在这种不公平待遇的人,可以这么向他们解释:它指的是歧视那些姓氏字母在字母表中排得靠后的人。
2.Here is an example, which I heard at a nurses’ convention, of a story which works well because the audience all shared the same view of doctors.                        (2002)
下面举一个例子,它是我在一个护士大会上听到的。这个故事效果很好,因为听众对医生都有同样的看法。
3.Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.                                        (1994)
许多其他商业企业,从剧院到杂志社、从燃气电器公司到牛奶加工厂都通过计算机的使用给消费者更好、效率更高的服务。
4.“Scientific” creationism, which is being pushed by some for “equal time” in the classrooms whenever the scientific accounts of evolution are given, is based on religion, not science. (1996)
        所谓“科学的”造物主义理论的基础是宗教而不是科学,但在教学时每当对进化论进行科学论述时,有些人就用它来争得“同等数量的学时”。
5.If its message were confined merely to information—and that in itself would be difficult if not impossible to achieve,for even a detail such as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtly persuasive—advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention.  (1995)
        如果广告仅仅限于提供信息,那么就太枯燥乏味了,没有人再留意它,当然这样做本身不是不可能但是很难作到,因为甚至像选择衬衣颜色那样的细节也是具有劝诱性的。
6.The existence of the giant clouds was virtually required for the Big Bang, first put forward in the 1920s, to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the cosmos.   (1998)
巨大的宇宙云的存在,实际上是20年代首创的大爆炸论得以保持其宇宙起源论的主导地位不可缺少的。
7.In the early industrialized countries of Europe the process of industrialization—with all the farreaching changes in social patterns that followed—was spread over nearly a century, whereas       nowadays a developing nation may undergo the same process in a decade or so.                (2000)
在先期实现工业化的欧洲国家中,其工业化进程以及随之而来的各种深刻的社会结构变革,持续了大约一个世纪之久,而如今一个发展中国家在十年左右就可能完成这个过程。
8.The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science.            (2003)
强调收集第一手资料,加上在分析过去和现在文化形态时采用跨文化视角,使得这一研究成为一门独特并且非常重要的社会科学。
9.With regard to Futurist poetry, however, the case is rather difficult, for whatever Futurist poetry may be—even admitting that the theory on which it is based may be right—it can hardly be classed as Literature.                                (2000)
然而,就未来派诗歌而言,情况却大不相同,因为无论未来派诗歌为何物,即使承认其理论根据可能正确,也很难称之为文学。
10.Thus, the anthropological concept of “culture”, like the concept of “set” in mathematics, is an abstract concept which makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.                                                        (2003)
因此,人类学中的“文化”概念就像数学中“集”的概念一样,是一个抽象概念。它使大量的具体研究和认识成为可能。

人名、身份作为插入

14.Nancy Dubler, director of Montefiore Medical Center, contends that the principle will shield doctors who “until now have very, very strongly insisted that they could not give patients sufficient mediation to control their pain if that might hasten death”.                (2002)
蒙特非奥里医疗中心主任南希•道布勒认为,这项原则将保护一些医生,他们直到现在还坚持说,在大量药物可能加速病人死亡的情况下,他们总不能给病人开足够的药来帮助他们止痛。
在新闻报道体裁的文章中引用某专家的言论,多采用这种句式结构,即人名+职位+动词(contend, maintain,hold,believe等)+that引导的宾语从句。本文在第四段和第五段两次出现。

该争论是由政府发起的,它邀请所有对BBC持有见解的人——包括普通听众和观众——评说它的优劣,甚至讨论它有没有继续存在的必要。

天体物理学家使用南极陆基探测器和球载仪器,正在越来越近地观测这些云系,也许不久会报告他们的观测结果。
19.The current passion for making children compete against their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system, in which competitive A-types seem in some way better than their B-type fellows.                                           (1995)
目前,热衷于让孩子与同学竞争或与时间赛跑造成了一种双重体制,在这种体制中,竞争性的A型学生在某些方面似乎比B型的学生要好。

分隔结构
1.        The only way I know of dealing with this general human conceit is to remind ourselves that
        man is a brief episode in the life of a small planet in a little corner of the universe, and that for aught we know, other parts of the cosmos may contain beings as superior to ourselves as we are to jellyfish.
对付这种一般人都存在的自负,我所知道的唯一方法,就是提醒我们自己:人类仅是宇宙一角内一个小行星的生命中的一个短暂插曲;宇宙的其他部分可能存在着比我们更高级的生命,就像我们比水母更为高级一样,但对此我们也未可知。

        may be another instance of the human ability to adapt and to survive, of which we spoke earlier.
愿意承认利用这些较新的“非科学的”方法从事科学研究的价值,也许是人类适应能力和生存能力的又一例证,关于这些能力我们前面已经谈到。
3.The second aspect is the application by all members of society from the government official to
        the ordinary citizen, of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work.       
        第二个方面是,社会的所有成员,从政府官员到普通居民,都应用科学家在研究中使用的特殊的思维方式和行为方式。
4.        Observations have been made of the children at the beginning and the end of the preschool and the first grade.
对孩子们在学前和一年级阶段的最初和结束时的情况进行了观察。
5.        Ways have been found to process large and complicated machine parts by using small and simple machines.
人们找到了利用小的简单的机器加工大的复杂的机器零件的办法。
6.        We accept and welcome, therefore, as conditions to which we must accommodate ourselves, great inequality of environment; the concentration of business, industrial and commercial, in the hands of a few; and the law of competition between these.
因此,我们接受并欢迎环境上的不平衡,接受并欢迎把工商业集中在少数人手里,并且在他们之间展开竞争。我们把这一切看成是我们必须适应的条件。

宾语/状语前移
1. I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation 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 “downshifting” brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status.                                         (2001)
我已经发现(由于压力过大,凯茜已多次公开宣称要辞去《女性》杂志编辑的职务,在这之后她也许会有同样发现),放弃“忙忙碌碌”的生活哲学,转而过一种“放慢生活节奏”的生活所带来的回报,比金钱和社会地位更有价值。

        technology or vice versa often depends on the issue of which is seen as the driving force.

3. That most Americans genuinely believe that their economic system is the best that human
        wisdom has so far devised and that their political system is a “democracy” in which the interests of the people are paramount, is an indication of how profoundly they have been brainwashed by those who benefit from things remaining as they are----the very people, of course, who control the mass communication with which to do the brainwashing.
绝大多数美国人真诚地相信,他们的经济制度是人类智慧至今所能设计的最好的制度,他们的政治制度是人民利益高于一切的“民主制度”。这一事实表明他们是多么深刻地被洗过脑了,而洗脑是由那些从现状得益的人们进行的。当然,正是这些人控制了大众传播媒体,并以此来进行洗脑。
4.Whether to use tests, other kinds of information, or both in a particular situation depends, therefore, upon the evidence from experience concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.                                                         (1995)
因此,究竟是采用测试还是其他种类的信息,或是在某一特定情况下两者同时使用,须凭有关相对效度的经验依据而定,也取决于诸如费用和有无来源等因素。

                                                                                                (1998年翻译)
更为重要的是,这是科学家们能够观测到的最遥远的过去的景象,因为他们看到的是150亿年前宇宙云的形状和结构。
6.While warnings are often appropriate and necessary—the dangers of drug interactions, for example—and many are required by state or federal regulations, it isn’t clear that they actually protect the manufacturers and sellers from liability if a customer is injured.                (1999)
虽然警示语常常是合理而必要的,如对药物副作用可能产生的危险的警示语,并且很多是州或联邦法规所要求的,但是当消费者受伤时,这些警示语能否真正保护制造商和销售商并使之免于承担法律责任,这还很难说。

这些领导人就是活生生的证据,证明对疾病的防治是有意义的,证明我们能够对付年龄带来的健康问题。
6.Indeed, there is evidence that the rate at which individuals forget is directly related to how much they have learned.                                        (1995)
的确,有证据显示个人忘却的比率与他们学得的知识量的多少直接相关。

行为科学之所以发展缓慢,部分原因是用来解释行为的依据似乎往往是直接观察到的,部分原因是其他的解释方式一直难以找到。
3.Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, which now more than ever seem in ample supply: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical hooks who takes his meals in three-star restaurants; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, whose own children are enrolled in private schools.
相反我们目睹了比以前任何时候都多的虚伪景观:美国物欲主义批评家在南安普顿拥有一幢避暑别墅;激进的出版商到三星级宾馆就餐;倡导终生参与民主制的新闻记者却把自己的子女送进私立学校。对于这样的人,还有那些也许不太出色的人而言,“不惜一切代价获得成功,但避免让他人看出雄心勃勃”是对他们最好的诠释。   (2000)

2.Science, in practice, depends far less on the experiments it prepares than on the preparedness of the minds of the men who watch the experiments…

4. He believes, although perhaps he does not know he believes it, that the more extensive
verifications are, that the more frequently experiments have been made and results of the same kind arrived at, that the more varied the conditions under which the same results have been attained, and the more certain is the ultimate conclusion, and he disputes the question no further.
