　　英语重形合，主要是指无论多么复杂的英语句子，都是通过一些语法手段和逻辑手段连接起来的“葡萄藤一样”的结构, 因而英语多长句。考研翻译中的所有句子基本上都是结构复杂的长难句，因此理清句子结构层次就显得至关重要。

　　?考研英语翻译可分三步走：
　　第一步：划分结构，理清句式;
　　第二步：转换词义，组织语言;
　　第三步：调整语序，润色文字。
　　?划分结构时，需要对句子进行拆分，而拆分点包括以下几种：
　　(1)标点
　　(2)并列连词：and, or, but, yet, for等
　　(3)从属连词：
　　状语从句连接词(when, as, since, until, before, after, where, because, since, thought, although, so that, ...等)
　　名词性从句(that, whether/if等从属连词，who, whom, whose, what, which, whatever, whichever等连接代词和when, where, how, why等连接副词)
　　定语从句(who, which, that, whom, whose等关系代词和when, why, where等关系副词)
　　(4)不定式、分词、介词短语
　　【真题例句1】
