小編前言:閱讀是四級(jí)英語中重要的得分點(diǎn)和難點(diǎn)，對(duì)長難句的分析則決定了對(duì)閱讀的徹底理解，也是學(xué)習(xí)語法，積累高級(jí)詞匯、句型不可或缺的來源。而四級(jí)英語真題閱讀部分均選自Times、Telegraph等著名外文報(bào)紙及雜志，其行文和詞匯原汁原味，值得考生細(xì)細(xì)品味和靈活借鑒。準(zhǔn)備2013年12月英語四級(jí)的同學(xué)們，還等什么？趕快學(xué)起來吧！同時(shí)，歡迎各位考生針對(duì)例句的翻譯及分析給出自己的理解哦！

1. Recent decisions by Hamilton and others may be “a sign that people are starting to realize that there’s this destructive competition going on,” says Baum, co-author of a recent College Report that raises concerns about the role of institutional aid not based on need. (2009. 閱讀. Text A)
【譯文】鮑姆認(rèn)為，哈密頓和其他人最近的決定可能就是“一種跡象表明人們開始意識(shí)到存在一種破壞性競(jìng)爭”。他是最近一項(xiàng)大學(xué)調(diào)查報(bào)告的組織者之一，這項(xiàng)報(bào)告引發(fā)了人們對(duì)并非基于需要的制度性經(jīng)濟(jì)援助的關(guān)心。
【析句】復(fù)合句。主干是Baum says+賓語從句，也就是Baum說話的內(nèi)容。賓語從句的主句是Recent decisions may be "a sign that are starting to realize that there is this destructive competition...", 引號(hào)內(nèi)包含兩個(gè)從句，that引導(dǎo)定語從句修飾a sign, realize后是that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。最后，co-author of a recent College Report作Baum的同位語，that raises concerns about...是College Report的定語從句。

2. “No one can take one-sided action,” says Laird, who is exploring whether to seek an?exemption?from federal anti-trust laws so member colleges can discuss how they could jointly reduce merit aid. (2009. 閱讀. Text A)
【譯文】"任何人都不能采取單方面的行動(dòng)。"萊爾德說，他正在研究是否有必要尋求獲得聯(lián)邦反托拉斯法的豁免權(quán)，這樣一來，其成員大學(xué)就可以探討如何共同削減獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金支出。
【析句】例句二和例句一結(jié)構(gòu)相似：主句Laird says且倒裝，引號(hào)內(nèi)是說話的內(nèi)容，作賓語從句且置于句首。主句后，who is exploring whether to...作定語從句，whether to...作exploring的賓語，而最后so member colleges can discuss how they could reduce merit aid是exploring動(dòng)作的結(jié)果，discuss后是how引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。

3. A complicating factor is that merit aid has become so popular with middle-income families, who don’t qualify for need-based aid, that many have come to depend on it. (2009. 閱讀. Text A)
【譯文】一個(gè)復(fù)雜因素就是，獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金深受不符合助學(xué)金申請(qǐng)條件的中層收入家庭的歡迎，甚至許多家庭都依靠它。
【析句】復(fù)合句。主句Acomplicating factor is that引導(dǎo)表語從句。表語從句中，主句是merit aid become so popular with middle-income families that many have come to depend on it,包含固定短語so...that+從句，意為“太……以至于……”，句中插入了who引導(dǎo)的定語從句。
