长难句(10)

1、【原文】

In the American economy, the concept of private property embraces not only the ownership of productive resources but also certain rights, including the right to determine the price of a product or to make a free contract with another private individual.

 

2、【分析】

本句话结构比较简单,句首是状语,主语是the concept of private property,谓语动词是embraces,后面的宾语用not only….but also…连接,第二个宾语certain rights后面是including引导的结构作为解释,the right后面是or连接的to determine和to make构成并列。

 

3、【词汇】

concept n.概念 <New Concept English新概念英语>

embrace v. 拥抱,[僻义]包含
[写作句型] the environmental protection embraces not only a series of laws and regulations but also the increased awareness of the public. 环境保护不仅仅只是一系列的法律法规,还有老百姓意识的增强。

determine vt. 决定; v. be determined to do 下定决心做某事

contract n.合同;v.缩短,收紧 <区分 contact联系>

 

4、【译文】

在美国经济中,私有财产的概念不仅包含对生产资源的所有权,也指其他一些特定的权利,如确定一个产品价格和与另一个私人个体自由签定合同的权利。

 

长难句(11)

1、【原文】

We have a certain conception of the American citizen, a character who is incomplete if he cannot competently assess how his livelihood and happiness are affected by things outside of himself.

 

2、【分析】

这个句子的难点在于a certain conception of the American citizen后面是同位语a character[一般逗号两边都是名词或名词结构,可以判断为同位语结构],其后是一个who引导的定语从句: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。

 

3、【词汇】

a certain 某种

conception 观念,概念

competently 本意是胜任地、合适地,此处演化成“准确地”

assess v.评价,评估

livelihood 生活

 

4、【译文】

我们应该这样理解美国公民——如果他不能准确判断自身的生活和幸福是如何受到外界影响的,那么他是个不完整的个体。

 

 长难句(12)

1、【原文】

The "shareholders" as such had no knowledge of the lives, thoughts or needs of the workmen employed by the company in which he held shares, and his influence on the relations of capital and labor was not good. 

 

2、【分析】

这句话结构的突破点是and,and后面是一个简单的主系表结构,前面比较复杂。the "shareholders"主语, as such作为修饰, had no knowledge of是谓语部分, the lives, thoughts or needs of the workmen是宾语,employed by the company引导分词结构做后置定语,修饰前面的workmen, in which he held shares是定语从句修饰前面的company。

 

3、【词汇】

shareholder 股东

as such 这样的

have no knowledge of 对…不了解;不知道

 

4、【译文】

这样的"股东"对他拥有股份的公司所雇用的工人们的生活、思想和需求一无所知,而且他们对劳资双方的关系不会产生积极的影响。
