Exercise The intentional termination of life of one human being by another - mercy killing (安乐死) - is contrary to that for which the medical profession stands and is contrary to the policy of the American Medical Association. Put them all together, exalt(提高)them above their present imperfections, add to them the vision of humankind redeemed, forever free of need and strife(争议)and you have a future lighted with the radiant colors of hope. More than three million people live in inner London, and nearly five million people live in the surrounding suburban area, which is made up of formerly separate villages that have merged to form what is now called outer London 要点分析和参考译文 要点:句子主干有两个并列的谓语部分,即 is contrary toand is contrary to。 词组mercy killing 是对前面内容的概括。for which the medical profession stands 是that的定语从句。 参考译文:有意识的结束一个人的生命安乐死既违反了医学界的职业立场,也违反了美国医学会协会的宗旨。 要点:此句的主干是一个由and 连接的并列结构。第一部分有几个并列祈使句组成,第二部分是一个完整的主谓结构,全句主干即Putexalt,forever freestrife and you have a futurecolors of hope.由于第一部分并列祈使句较长而第二部分较短,而且连接两部分的and前面有存在着另外一个and(need and strife)从而致使句子的结构较复杂,不易看出主干的并列结构。 |
