關於小升中英語閲讀的基本功分析

Exercise

Americans admire the self-made person—the one who, with neither money nor family influence, fights his or her way to the top.

Silly or wise, terrible or delightful, it is a further helping of experience, an additional joy after dark, another slice of life cut differently for which, it seems to me, we are never sufficiently grateful.

Quite a different problem, but one that is causing growing concern, is that computers may violate people's privacy.

要點分析和參考譯文

要點：破折號後的“the one”是前面person的同位語，“the one”後面又有一個由who引導的定語從句，其中主語和謂語之間有一個插入語：with neither money nor family influence.

參考譯文：美國人欽佩靠個人奮鬥而成功的.人士：這種人既沒有金錢也沒有家庭背景，靠自己的奮鬥攀登到最上層。

要點：Silly or wise, terrible or delightful為平行結構，在句中作讓步狀語。另外句子的表語也是平行結構“a further helping of experience, an additional joy after dark”“it seems to me”為插入語，插入到for which引導的定語從句中。

參考譯文：不管是愚蠢還是聰明，可怕還是愉悦，夢中的生活都是更深一層的另外一種體驗，是天黑以後才有的另一種歡樂，是生活另一個不同的側面，對此我似乎覺得怎麼感激也不為過。

要點：句中“but one that is causing growing concern”，在句中作插入語。在意義上是對“Quite a different problem”的補充説明。One代替上文提到的“problem”

參考譯文：一個截然不同但卻越來越引起人們關注的問題是：計算機可能會侵犯人們的隱私。
