 35. Humans are unique in their capacity to not only make tools but then turn around and use them to create superfluous 1 material goods—paintings, sculpture and architecture—and superfluous experiences—music, literature, religion and philosophy.


【分析】简单句。句子主干为 Human are require。不定式短语 to not only...philosophy 作后置定语,修饰 capacity,其中包含一个 not only...but...结构。第一、三个破折号引出的内容分别解释说明破折号前的 superfluous material 和 superfluous experiences。
【译文】人类的独特性在于,他们不仅仅有制造工具的能力,而且在制造工具之后还能使用这些工具创造的额外物品——画作、雕塑和建筑——并获得额外的体验——音乐、文学、宗教和哲学。
【点拨】superfluous“过剩的,多余的”。
36. Downloading and consuming culture requires great skills, but failing to move beyond downloading is to strip oneself of a defining constituent 2 of humanity.
【分析】并列句。but 连接的两个并列分句。两个分句中动名词短语作主语,其中第二个分句中不定式短语作表语。
【译文】下载并享受文学作品需要很高的技巧,但如果仅限于下载的话,那么就等于剥夺了下载者自身作为人类的一种重要能力。
【点拨】1)strip“夺取,剥夺”,常与 of 连用。2)defining“最典型的,起决定作用的”。

adj.过多的,过剩的,多余的
  • She fined away superfluous matter in the design. 她删去了这图案中多余的东西。
  • That request seemed superfluous when I wrote it.我这样写的时候觉得这个请求似乎是多此一举。
n.选民;成分,组分;adj.组成的,构成的
  • Sugar is the main constituent of candy.食糖是糖果的主要成分。
  • Fibre is a natural constituent of a healthy diet.纤维是健康饮食的天然组成部分。
