19考研英语：屠屠长难句（三十八）

1每日一句长难句
During the discussion of rock singing verses at last month's stockholders' meeting, Levin asserted that "music is not the cause of society's ills" and even cited his son, a teacher in the Bronx, New York, who uses rap to communicate with students.

2【分析】
句首是状语，其中During the discussion of rock singing verses表示对象，at表示地点，last month's stockholders' meeting是具体的地点，主干结构是Levin asserted that….and cited his son，that引导宾语从句，a teacher in the Bronx, New York是插入语，也是his son的同位语，who引导定语从句修饰his son。

3【词汇】

verse 诗篇，在这里是语境含义

stockholder 股东

assert 宣称

ill 是熟词僻义，表示问题

cite sb. 以…为例

4【译文】
在上个月的股东大会上关于摇滚歌词的讨论中，莱文宣称说："音乐不是社会问题的原因"，他甚至还以他的儿子为例。他的儿子是纽约州布朗克斯的一个教师，并用说唱音乐与学生们进行沟通。

5【明日长难句】
