今日练习：O-Level也阅读长难句分析（一）

　　O-Level阅读中经常会出现句子很长句式成分很复杂的长难句，考生如果无法快速看懂这些句子，自然也就很难顺利解题了。如何应对长难句？今天的长难句来啦，大家快好好学习吧。

　　NO.1

　　There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones，that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs，that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains and the like．

　　(并列同位语从句reports that…，that…，that…)

　　关于天然维生素优于人造维生素，受精蛋比未受精蛋的营养价值更高，未经熏蒸消毒处理的谷物比经过处理的好等等报道屡见不鲜，但都没有得到证实。

　　分句1：There are numerous unsubstantiated reports

　　分句2：natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones

　　分句3：that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs

　　分句4：that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains and the like

　　分句1是整个长句的主句，分句2、分句3和分句4是并列关系，共同构成分句1的同位语从句。本句的意思是有很多没有经过证实的报道，然后并列了三个未经过证实的报道的从句。

　　NO.2

　　The desperate plight of the South has eclipsed the fact that reconstruction had to be undertaken also in the North，though less spectacularly．

　　(同位语从句fact that…)

　　南方极为严重的困境使北方同样需要开始重建(尽管不像南方那么引人注目)这一事实显得不太重要。

　　分句1. The desperate plight of the South has eclipsed the fact

　　分句2. reconstruction had to be undertaken also in the North

　　分句3.though less spectacularly （省略）

　　1和2嵌套

　　1和3并列

　　NO.3

　　The new accessibility of land around the periphery of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled what we now know as urban sprawl．

　　(宾语从句what we now know as)

　　现在可以获得这些环绕几乎每个大城市边缘地区的土地，这一可能性激发了一场房地产开发的热潮并造成了我们现在称为城区无计划扩展的现象。

　　分句1：The new accessibility of land around the periphery of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled

　　分句2：what we now know as urban sprawl

　　分句1嵌套分句2，即分句1是主句，分句2是宾语从句，主句结构经过精简应该是The new accessibility of land sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled urban sprawl。

　　本句的理解困难还来自于抽象词fuel，它作为名词的含义广为人知，是能源、燃料，作为动词的时候的意思就可以引申为促使、造成。
