1每日一句长难句
The Aswan Dam, for example, stopped the Nile flooding but deprived Egypt of the fertile silt that floods left——all in return for a giant reservoir of disease which is now so full of silt that it barely generates electricity.

2【结构分析】
本句长度一般,但是结构混乱。for example插入语,The Aswan Dam主语,谓语是but引导的并列结构stopped…. but deprived…。that floods left是定语从句修饰silt。破折号后面是解释说明,which引导定语从句修饰a giant reservoir of disease,而其中so…that…构成固定结构。

3【词汇】
deprive…of… 剥夺
fertile 肥沃的
silt 淤泥
in return for 置换
generate 产生--->generate electricity 发电

4【参考译文】
例如,阿斯旺大坝使得尼罗河不再洪水泛滥,但是它也夺去了埃及洪水留下的肥沃淤泥——这些换来的就是这么个疾病滋生的水库,现在这个水库积满了淤泥,几乎不能发电了。

5【明日长难句】
The teachers who took part in the program also told me of their worries that they might be force-feeding their pupils information rather than stimulating the discussion necessary to ensure they grasped the importance to them of what they were being taught.
