六、長句
為了表述一個復雜概念，使之邏輯嚴密，結構緊湊，科技文章中往往出現許多長句。有的長句多達七八個詞，以下即是一例。
The efforts that have been made to explain optical phenomena by means of the hypothesis of a medium having the same physical character as an elastic solid body led, in the first instance, to the understanding of a concrete example of a medium which can transmit transverse vibrations ,and at a later stage to the definite conclusion that there is no luminiferous medium having the physical character assumed in the hypothesis.
為了解釋光學現象，人們曾試圖假定有一種具有與彈性固體相同的物理性質的介質。這種子嘗試的結果，最初曾使人們了解到一種能傳輸橫向振動的具有上述假定所以認為的那種物理性質的發光介質。
