詳析雅思閲讀難句中的分隔結構

導語：雅思閲讀當中有很多長句難句，下面YJBYS小編詳析雅思閲讀難句中的分隔結構，歡迎參考!

英語的難句=主句+從句+短語，不同於漢語的句子全是簡單句，沒有複雜句。如果把英語的難句比喻成大樹，那麼主句相當於樹幹，從句相當於樹枝，而短語相當於葉子。只要把握主句，就可理解大意。相比之下，漢語的句子就好比是竹子，一節一節的。

因此，我們在理解英語難句的時候要學會“拆”——把複雜句拆成簡單句來理解。也就是説，要學會抓住“樹幹”，拆掉“枝葉”。

1. Evening had now come, (the last of Adolf Hitler’s life).

結構：只有1個謂語動詞：had come，分隔了主語evening和它的同位語(the last of Adolf Hitler’s life)。(the last of Adolf Hitler’s life)由於較長，所以放在了後面。本句的原型是：Evening, (the last of Adolf Hitler’s life), had now come.

翻譯：阿道夫.希特勒生命中的最後一個夜晚已經來臨了。

2. We live in a time when, (more than ever before in history), people are moving about.

結構：共有2個謂語動詞，主句的是live。(more than ever before in history)分隔了定語從句的引導詞when和people are moving about。拆分為：

1) We live in a time.

2) In a time people are moving about (more than ever before in history).

翻譯：在我們生活的時代中，人們四處奔波的程度遠遠超過歷史上的任何時期。

3. 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.

結構：共有3個謂語動詞，主句的是hope。that引導的是an announcement的同位語從句，原型是an announcement that enemy missiles are approaching comes over the radio。但是，由於謂語動詞太短，造成頭重腳輕，所以同位語從句被放到了後面。拆分為：

1) Several neighbors hope to find … on their street.

2) When an announcement comes over the radio.

3) That enemy missiles are approaching.

翻譯：當電台裏面宣佈敵人的導彈襲來的時候，有幾個鄰居希望能在街上唯一的避彈所裏找到藏身之處。

4. The willingness to recognize the value of these newer “unscientific” ways of doing science may be another instance of the human ability to adapt and survive, of which we spoke earlier.

結構：共有2個謂語動詞，主句的是may be。主幹是The willingness…may be another instance…。of which引導非限定性定語從句，修飾the human ability，被to adapt and survive分隔。

1) The willingness to recognize the value of these newer “unscientific” ways of doing science may be another instance of the human ability to adapt and survive.

2) We spoke of the human ability.

翻譯：認識到從事科學工作的一些更新穎的、“非科學”方法的價值的願望，也許是我們早先提到過的人類所具有的.適應能力和生存能力的另一個例子。

5. It is an activity you turn to for pleasure, not something that you have to do, like helping with the dishes.

結構：共有3個謂語動詞，主句的是is。主幹為It is an activity…, not something…。 you turn to for pleasure是一個省略了that的定語從句，修飾activity。修飾something的定語從句that you have to do分隔了something和它的另一個定語like helping with the dishes。拆分為：

1) It is an activity.

2) You turn to the activity for pleasure.

3) You have to do something.

翻譯：這是一種你尋求快樂的活動，而非像幫人刷盤子那樣的一些你不得不作的事情。

6. The tour races of France and Italy, (held each year), cover more than 2,000 miles.

結構：只有1個謂語動詞。過去分詞(held each year)作為the tour races的定語，被另一個定語of France and Italy分隔。當一個名詞或代詞後面同時接有兩個以上的定語，或者名詞或代詞後面的定語被其他成分(例如狀語，插入語，同位語等)隔開時，稱為“分割定語”。例如：The man in old age who can see his life in this way will not suffer from the pain of death. in old age分隔了the man的定語從句。

翻譯：環法國和意大利的巡迴賽每年舉行，其行程長達2,000多英里。

7. While I was waiting to enter university, I saw (advertised in a local newspaper) a teaching post at a school in a suburb of London about ten miles from where I lived.

結構：共有3個謂語動詞，主句的是saw。主句的原型是I saw a teaching post (advertised in a local newspaper) at a school in a suburb of London…。(advertised in a local newspaper)也是a teaching post的定語，但是分隔了saw和a teaching post。之所以把(advertised in a local newspaper)提到a teaching post之前，是因為主句的原型中，a teaching post的後置定語太長，容易造成理解上的混亂。
