雅思阅读长难句分析方法
插入语一般是对句子的某个成分的解释或补充说明,前后有逗号与其他句子成分分开,比较容易识别.处理插入语的基本办法是先略去不读,直接跳过两个逗号之间的内容,使插入语结构前后意思顺畅.
例句1:To casual observers, as well as to influential natural scientists and regional planners, the luxuriant forests of Amazonia seem ageless.
分析:该句中,as well as to influential natural scientists and regional planners充当插入语,阅读句子时,可以先忽略这部分.意思是说:对不经意看到的人和有影响力的自然科学家、区域规划者来说,亚马逊地区的繁茂的森林似乎是永恒的.
例句2ver 120 years ago, the English botanist J.D. Hooker, writing of Australian edible plants, suggested that many of them were eatable but not worth eating.
分析:此句中,两个逗号之间的内容即writing of Australian edible plants, 充当插入语.意思是说:120多年前,在写到澳大利亚可食用的植物时,英国植物学家J.D.Hooker就指出它们当中有很多可食用的,但却不值得食用.
倒装结构
在英语当中,主语和谓语有两种顺序:一种和汉语一致,即主语在前;另外一种顺序是谓语在主语前面,即倒装.阅读中一般会出现以not only等否定连词和never,seldom rarely, hardly等否定副词引导的倒装句.理解倒装句,就要把它转换成普通语句,把倒装语序还原为自然语序,在自然语序下理解句子.
例句1:In a dispute, not only do the interests of one party not coincide with those of the other party, but they are in conflict.
分析:该句中,not only...but also...引导了倒装句,把其中的句子换成正常语序就是:the interests of one party do not coincide with those of the other party.整句的意思是:在一个争论中,不仅一方的利益和另外一方不一致,而且它们是相互矛盾的.
例句2:Hardly had we arrived in Shanghai when it began to snow.
分析:此句是由hardly...when引导出了倒装,意思是:我们一到上海天就开始下雪.
