下面為考生剖析英語(yǔ)六級(jí)閱讀真題長(zhǎng)難句(1)，供考生參考學(xué)習(xí)。
　　1. She recalls watching the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave - and into seeming nothingness, rarely mentioned for more than half a century. (2004. 閱讀. 6. Text 1)
　　【譯文】她回憶起看著輪船被火光照亮，慢慢沉入漆黑的墓穴，最后永遠(yuǎn)消失。這場(chǎng)悲劇半個(gè)世紀(jì)以來(lái)極少被提起。
　　【析句】英語(yǔ)句子中存在多個(gè)動(dòng)詞時(shí)，常大量使用分詞，保證句子中只有一個(gè)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。本句中主句是She recalls watching the ship,recall是謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，后面的一系列分詞lit,slipping, mentioned的主語(yǔ)都是the ship，通過(guò)動(dòng)作與the ship的主動(dòng)被動(dòng)關(guān)系決定使用的是現(xiàn)在分詞還是過(guò)去分詞。在現(xiàn)在分詞slipping后跟有兩個(gè)并列的into短語(yǔ)。
　　2. Now Germany's Nobel Prize-winning author Gunter Grass has revived the memory of the 9,000 dead, including more than 4,000 children - with his latest novel Crab Walk, published last month. (2004. 閱讀. 6. Text 1)
　　【譯文】如今，德國(guó)諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)作家岡特·格拉斯用上個(gè)月最新出版的《蟹行》一書(shū)重新將這份慘烈的記憶——9000人死亡，其中有4000是兒童——在人們心中喚起。
　　【析句】復(fù)合句。主句Ginter Grass has revived the memory of the 9000 dead是主句，Germany's Nobel Prize-winning author作主語(yǔ)的同位語(yǔ)。including more than 4,000 children是現(xiàn)在分詞作定語(yǔ)。最后，破折號(hào)后，with his latest novel published last month作伴隨狀語(yǔ)。
　　3. Few MacArthur Prize fellows, winners of the MacArthur Award for creative accomplishment, had good things to say about their precollegiate schooling if they had not been placed in advanced programs. (2004. 閱讀. 6. Text 2)
　　【譯文】麥克亞瑟獎(jiǎng)是為那些做出創(chuàng)造性成就的人設(shè)立的。那些很早就被安排參加高級(jí)課程的獲獎(jiǎng)?wù)吆苌儆腥藢?duì)大學(xué)前的教學(xué)做出正面評(píng)價(jià)。
　　【析句】復(fù)合句。主句FewMacArthur Prize fellows had good things to say about their precollegiate schooling，winners of the MacArthur Award for...作主句主語(yǔ)...fellows的同位語(yǔ)。在主句后，if引導(dǎo)條件狀語(yǔ)從句表明few had good things to say...的前提。
