考研英语真题长难句详细解析 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. 【译文】但是有一种隐蔽的形式还在蔓延:按字母表顺序排名。对于尚未意识到其危害的人来说,它指的是对那些姓氏起始字母位于字母表后半部的人的歧视。 【析句】句子的主干是This refers to discrimination against those。其中,for those as yet unaware of such a disadvantage是插入语,those是介词for的宾语,形容词短语unaware of作those的定语;第二个those是against的宾语,后面是whose引导的定语从句修饰those。 2. Thus the American president and vice-president have surnames starting with B and C respectively; and 26 of George Bushs predecessors had surnames in the first half of the alphabet against just 16 in the second half. 【译文】如此这般,美国的总统和副总统的姓氏分别是以B和C字母起头。乔治布什的前任有二十六位的姓氏均在字母表的前半部,而姓氏在字母表后半部的却仅有十六位。 【析句】句子的主干是the American president and vice-president have surnames...; and 26 of...predecessors had surnames。其中,and将本句分为两个并列分句,第一个分句即American president and vice-president have surnames,第二个分句是26 ofhad surnames。第一个分句的宾语surnames后是现在分词结构starting with作定语;第二个分句宾语紧跟的介词结构in the first half of the alphabet作定语。 |
