2、经常是适当而且必需的比如对于药物相互作用的危急提出警告很多警告仍是按州或联邦政府规定要求给出的，然而 我们 并不清晰， 假如顾客受到损害时，这些警告是不是的确可以使得生产者和销售者豁免责任。【分析】在这个主从复合句中，it isnt clear that they actually protect the manufacturers and sellers from liability if a customer is injured是主句。主句用了一个形式主语it ，真正的主语是 that 引导的从句，而that 从句之后是一个if 引导的条件从句。从句由两个部分组成，中间用 and 连接。

3、破折号之间的部分是举例说明warnings 的内容。留意：many are required by state or federal regulations 中的 many 是指 many warnings 。2. Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of tran

4、sport .【译文】由于人口猛增或大量人口流淌现代交通工具使大量人口流淌变得相对简洁所引起的各种问题也会对社会造成新的压力。【分析】句子主干结构是Additional social stresses may also occur because of.简洁句 + because of 表示的缘由状语，整句翻译应当依据先缘由后结果的原就，将主句放在最终。because of 后面有两个宾语the population explosion or problems 。名词 problems 带有现在分词短语作后置定语arising from mass migration movements 。 t

6、意趣相差甚远。【分析】主句也是一个there 加系动词的用法。而表语后都有一个定语从句。本句的定语从句是which helps explain why the“standard templates”of the newsroom seem alien to manyreaders。Alien本义为异国的， 此处是相差甚远， 背道而驰。假如考生不明白standard templates的意思，可以从上下文中找其相同作用和功能的词组，如上句中的a story line 和 backbone，那么就应当知道它们指的都是记者们在写新闻和评论时固定的套路和思维。4. This phenomenon ha

7、s created serious concerns over the role of smaller economic firms,of national businessmen and over the ultimate stability of the world economy.【译文】这种现象引起了人们对小型经济实体、民族商人的作用以及世界经济的最终稳固性的极大关注。【分析】全句的主干是This phenomenon has created serious concerns。人们的担忧实际包含两个方面 即句子的两个状语：一个是the role of smaller economic

12、提倡终生参加民主制的新闻记者把自己的子女送进私立学校。【分析】本句的主句是we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles 。非限定性的定语从句 which now more than ever seem in ample supply修饰 spectacles。冒号后面的成分是三个 并列的名词性短语，其核心词分别是critic ，publisher 和 journalist 。spectacles 在文中意为 “壮丽景象”，有肯定的反讽意味。7.

13、people no longer feel its stirrings and promptings,but only that,no longer openly honored,it is less openly professed.【译文】这并不意味着抱负已经穷途末路，人们不再感觉到它对人们的勉励了。而只是说明人们不再公开的以它为荣，更不愿公开的坦承了。【分析】 这是一个简洁句，主干是 this does not mean ，后面接了三个并列的 that 从句作 mean 的宾语。 在第三个宾语从句中， it 指代 ambition ，no longer openly honored 是插

The attacks on ambition are many and come from various angles;its public defenders are few and unimpressive, where they are not extremely unattractive.【译文】对抱负的攻击特别之

15、多，而且观点不尽相同。公开为之辩解的就少之又少，而且并不为人留意，尽管他们并非一点吸引力也没有。【分析】此句是用分号隔开的两个并列句，后面的一个分句中有一个where 引导的定语从句，从整体上来修饰its public defenders ，只不过先行词用了where。9. The astonishing distrust of the news media isnt rooted in inaccuracy or poor reportorial skills but in the daily clash of world views between reporters and their

16、readers.【译文】对新闻媒介这种令人震动的不信任，其根源并非是报道失实或低下的报道技巧，而是记者与读者的世界观每天都发生着碰撞。【分析】本句的主干是一个notbut结构。留意这个结构引导的是两个方式状语。 其核心词分别是inaccuracy 和 the daily clash 。本句的主干是The astonishing distrust of the news media isnt rooted 。两个分词短语充当句子的状语。10.

18、并不复杂，两个句子表达了人们的想法。在第一个句子中，ifthe doormat or stove failed to warn of coming disaster是指门垫或炉灶没有警示语。在其次个句子中， or so the thinking has gone是一个倒装结构，正常的语序应当是or the thinking has goneso或者说人们是这么想的。11. Ifit did,itwouldopen up its diversityprogram,nowfocused narrowlyon race and gender,and look for reporters who di

19、ffer broadly by outlook,values,education,and class.【译文】假如新闻界真的留意到了问题的关键，它就应当进一步开放其多样化项目，这个项目现在仍只单纯考虑招收不同种族和性别的员工，而进一步查找那些世界观、价值观、训练水平和社会阶层大相径庭的各种记者。【分析】本句是一个虚拟语句。it 代表上文提到的a troubled business，即“问题重重的新闻界”。主语it 跟了两个并列的谓语成分：一是would open up its diversity program ，二是wouldlook for reporters。reporters 后面跟了

20、一个定语从句。now focused narrowly on race and gender 是插入语，作program 的定语。12. For such people and many more perhaps not so exceptional,theproper formulation is,“ Succeed at all costs but avoid appearing ambitious.”【译文】对于这样的人，以及更多或许不太杰出的人而言，恰当的行为准就是：“不惜一切代价获得胜利，但要防止让人看出雄心勃勃。”【分析】For such people and many more

21、perhaps not so exceptional 是句子的状语，主语是 the proper formulation ，谓语是系动词is，表语是引号里的内容。13. Internationalaffiliates account for a fast-growingsegment of production in economies that open up and welcome foreign investment.【译文】在那些对外开放并勉励外资的国家的经济中，跨国公司的分支机构已经成为经济领域中一个快速增长的生产部门。【分析】本句的主干是Internationalaffiliate

22、saccount fora fast-growingsegment of production in economies ，后面的that open up and welcome foreign investment是 economies 的定语从句。留意一些词汇的含义：affiliate 是名词，意为“分支机构”，此处是指在世界各的 都有分支的多国公司，并且是全句的主语。account for 是“ , 的缘由”。economies 在此处指经济领域的国家概念，因此用复数。14.

24、扩大。 这一切都需要扩大业务往来满意消费者的需求。这对消费者只会有利而不会有害。【分析】本句是一个嵌套宾语从句，不过也并不难懂得。主句是I believe that ，that 后面是 Ibelieve 的内容。其次个宾语从句修饰的是same，即 the same that underlie the globalizationprocess。冒号的内容就进一步说明globalization process 的内容。15. Andshould one country take upon itself the role of“ defending competition” on issu that

25、 affect many other nations,as in the US vs. Microsoft case .可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结【译文】在那些将会影响很多其他国家的事情中，如美国政府与微软公司的诉讼案，一个国家是否应当担负起“爱护竞争”的责任了？【分析】此句的主干是should one country take upon itself the role，而 that affect many other nations 是 issues 的定语从句。 as in the US vs. Microsoft case 是 issues 的补语。 on issu

26、es是 take upon itself the role 的状语。留意在阅读本句的时候要抓住它本身是一个文句，另外，vs.的意思对正确懂得也很重要，它是指“对垒，对阵 ”，在法律的情形中就是“起诉，对簿公堂 ”的意思。16.

29、de of himlsf 。e 这里的a character 是指 the American citizen ，其后是一个who引导的定语从句。该定语从句是主从复合句，其中主句是who is incomplete ，if 引导条件从句，这个条件从句中的谓语动词assess跟了一个how 引导的宾语从句。18.

30、 over so many states and involves so many international corporations.【译文】另外，在我们这么一个大国里，经济延展到这么多的州、涉及到这么多的国际公司，因而要依据数量培育出所需的各类专业人员是不大可能的。【分析】这里的主语this 指的是前面所说的professional training ，后面不定式短语中动词 produce 的宾语是professional，前面的成分是修饰这个词的短语，接着是的点状语，其中 country 带了两个修饰成分：前一个是形容词性的短语as large as ours，后一个是where 引导

31、的定语从句，这个从句的主语the economy 有两个谓语动词：is 和 involves ，后面都用了相像的结构so many，表示强调。19.

46、tly tracks the emergence of mass media,and with it,a commercial culture in which happiness is not just an ideal but an ideology.【译文】反欢乐艺术的兴起几乎完全与大众传媒同步显现，而随之兴起了一种商业文化，在这种文化中，欢乐不仅是一个抱负，而且是一种意识形状。【分析】此句是一个简洁句，主干是The rise of anti-happy art almost exactly tracks the emergence of mass mediaa commercial culture 。withit 中 的 it 是 指 the emergence of massmedia。另外， in which happiness is not just an ideal but an ideology是一个定语从句，修饰a commercial culture 。28.
