1.My parents, although sympathetic, and sharing my love of music, disapproved of it as a profession.
【難句釋義】Although my parents are sympathetic and sharing my love of music, they disapproved of it as a profession.
【難句解析】句子的主干是“My parents disapproved...”,句中“although sympathetic, and sharing my love of music”是形容詞和現在分詞做狀語，修飾“my parents”。
2.My father often said it was only the hardheaded thriftiness of my grandmother that kept the wolf at bay.
【難句釋義】My father often said but for the hardheaded thriftiness of my grandmother, my family will get hungry.
【難句解析】kept the wolf at bay意思是“勉強度日”。
3.When I broke away from business, it was against the advice of practically all my friends and family. So conditioned are most of us to the association of success with money that the thought of giving up a good salary for an idea seemed little short of insane.
【難句釋義】我脫離商界之舉是與所有親友的忠告相違的，因為我們大多數人習慣把成功與金錢聯系在一起，為理想而放棄高薪似乎是發瘋。
【難句解析】句中"it"指"I broke away from business"，"so"指"most of us to ... a good salary for an idea seemed little short of insane","condition"此處做動詞，意思是“以...為條件”。
