2018屠屠考研英语长难句 一日一句(46)

每日一句：

 It is entirely reasonable for auditors to believe that scientists who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there should not be distracted by the necessity of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope.

【分析】

本句的主体结构是it is adj. for sb. to do …., believe后面是that引导的宾语从句。从句中scientists是主语，后面是who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there定语从句修饰，谓语动词是被动语态should not be distracted by，the necessity是宾语，of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope引导结构做定语。

【词汇】

entirely reasonable完全有理由

auditor审查者

distract分散注意力

cash register收银机

【译文】审查者完全有理由相信，知道自己准备做什么、怎么做的科学家不应该因为必须一只眼盯着收银机，一只眼盯着显微镜而分散了注意力。
