   2011考研英语长难句


  1 Alien's contribution was to take an assumption we all share — that because we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts — and reveal its erroneous nature.
  【分析】多重复合句。句子的主干是Allen's attribu?tion was to take an assumption …and reveal its errone? ous nature。we all share是省略引导词的定语从句,修饰先行词assumption;破折号当中是修饰assumption的同位语从句。翻译时注意短定语从句可以译为主谓宾结构;同位语从句可以加冒号处理,也可以前置;被隔开 的并列的不定式表语可以顺接翻译。
  【点拨】 1、take an assumption 因为与 reveal its errone?ous nature承接,因此译为“研究了这一假说”。2)erroneous nature意为“错误的本质”。
  【译文】我们每个人都认同这样的看法:我们自己不是机器人,因此能够控制自己的思想;爱伦的贡献在于他研究了这一假说,并揭示了其错误的本质。
  2 While we may be able to sustain the illusion of control through the conscious mind alone, in reality we are continually faced with a question:"Why cannot I make myself do this or achieve that?"
  【分析】复合句。主句的主干为we are continually faced with a question,冒号后的部分可似看作question的同位语;while引导让步状语从句。翻译时注意让步状语从句顺译,主句中的被动语态翻译成主动语态,同位语从句中指示代词需根据上下文明确翻译出来。
  【点拨】1、sustain—词的含义较多,根据其后的搭配翻 译成“维持,持续”。2、conscious mind意为“有意识的思想”。
  【译文】虽然我们或许只通过有意识的思想就能维持这种控制的幻觉,但事实上,我们却总是面临一个问题:我们为什么不能让自己去做这件事情或去实现那个目标呢?
