【難句解析】

　　1. For example, when the board of the University of Colorado searched for a new president, it wanted a leader familiar with the state government, a major source of the university’s budget.
　　【解析】when引導時間狀語從句，其后是主句，該主句中的familiar with the state government是形容詞短語作定語，修飾leader;而句末a major source of the university’s budget 是同位語來說明the state government。
　　【譯文】例如，科羅拉多大學董事會在遴選新校長時，他們想聘用一個與州政府熟悉的領導人，因為州政府是學校的主要資金來源。

　　2. In 2003，when Cambridge University appointed Alison Richard, another former Yale provost, as its vice-chancellor, the university publicly stressed that in her previous job she had overseen “ a major strengthening of Yale’s financial position.”
　　【解析】句首的when 從句是非限制性定語從句，補充說明2003。句子的主句是the university…stressed that…，其中that引出賓語從句。賓語從句中的主句為she had overseen a major strengthening。
　　【譯文】2003年，劍橋大學任命前耶魯大學教務長艾莉森?理查德為副校長。學校公開強調艾莉森之前的工作確保了“耶魯大學財政狀況良好”。

　　3. The globalization of education means more universities will be seeking heads with international experience of some kind to promote international programs and attract a global student body.
　　【解析】本句的主干簡單易懂，是The globalization of education means…。但其后的賓語從句的結構復雜，該從句的主干是more universities will be seeking heads，heads 之后的with international experience of some kind 是介詞短語做定語。句末的to promote international programs and attract a global student body是目的狀語。
　　【譯文】教育全球化意味著更多的大學將要聘用那些具有國際經驗的校長，以促進國際間項目的合作，招收留學生。
