Fourth 研读难句
1.ExactlywhenthefirstpeoplearrivedinwhatwenowknowasCalifornia,noonereallyknows.
分析:
本句是一个主从复合句。
noonereallyknows是主句;when引导的从句作knows的__宾语__,宾语从句提前是为了表示强调;when从句中又包含__what__引导的宾语从句,what在从句中作know的宾语。
译文:
__最早的一批人是在什么时候来到我们现在所知道的加利福尼亚洲地区的,谁也说不清楚。
__
2.AlthoughChineseimmigrantsbegantoarriveduringtheGoldRushPeriod,itwasthebuildingoftherailnetworkfromthewesttotheeastcoastthatbroughtevenlargernumberstoCaliforniainthe1860s.
分析:
本句是一个主从复合句。
Although引导__让步状语__从句;主句用了__强调句式__,被强调部分是thebuildingoftherailnetworkfromthewesttotheeastcoast。
译文:
__虽然中国移民在淘金热时期就开始来到了,但是更大批量的移民却是在19世纪60年代为了修建贯穿美国东西海岸的铁路而来的。
__
3.Itisbelievedthatbeforelongthemixofnationalitieswillbesogreatthattherewillbenodistinctmajorracialorculturalgroups,butsimplyamixtureofmanyracesandcultures.
分析:
Itisbelievedthat...意为“据认为……”,it为__形式__主语,that从句为真正的主语,在这个主语从句中还有一个that引导的__结果状语__从句。
译文:
__人们认为,要不了多久,多种国籍的混合将会非常之大,以至于不可能存在一种明显主要的种族或文化群体,而只是多种族、多文化的混合体。
__
