六级真题阅读长难句分析

1.

For hundreds of millions of years,turtles (海龟) have struggled out of the sea to lay

their eggs on sandy beaches,long before there were nature documentaries to celebrate

them,or GPS satellites and marine biologists to track them,or volunteers to handcarry

the hatchlings (幼龟) down to the water’s edge lest they become disoriented by

headlights and crawl towards a motel parking lot instead. (6月)

【分析】本句为复合句,主架为… turtles have struggled…。For hundreds of millions

of years 为介词短语作时间状语。before… 为时间状语从句,该从句采用是there

be构造,主语为or连接三个名词(词组):natural documentaries,GPS satellites and

marine biologists和volunteers,主语后不定式均为主语后置定语。lest“以免”引导

状语从句,采用虚拟语调。

【译文】数百万年以来,海龟们都挣扎着从海里爬出来,到沙滩上产卵,那时候

还没有自然纪录片来记录它们活动,没有GPS卫星和海洋生物学家跟踪它们,没

有志愿者用手把小海龟放到水边以防它们被桅灯搞得迷失方向而爬向旅馆停车

场。

2.

The figures prompted Oceana to petition the government to upgrade the level of

protection for the North Atlantic loggerheads from “threatened” to “endangered” —

meaning they are in danger of disappearing without additional help. (6月)

【分析】本句为复合句,主架为The figures prompted Oceana…。to petition the

government为不定式作prompted状语,to upgrade the level of protection… 为不定

式作petition状语。they are in danger… help作meaning宾语,相称于省略了引导

词that宾语从句。

【译文】这些数字迫使Oceana向政府祈求将对北大西洋大海龟保护限度由“受到

威胁”提高到“濒临灭绝”,这意味着如果没有额外保护,它们将面临消失危险。

3.

But Nature is indifferent to human notions of fairness,and a report by the Fish and

Wildlife Service showed a worrisome drop in the populations of several species of

North Atlantic sea turtles,notably loggerheads,which can grow to as much as 400

pounds. (6月)

【分析】本句为并列复合句,主架为Nature is indifferent… and… a report…

showed… a… drop…。But表转折。by the Fish and Wildlife Service为介词短语作

report后置定语。which can grow to as much as 400 pounds为非限制性定语从句,

修饰loggerheads。be indifferent to意为“对…无动于衷”。a drop in指“在…方面下

降”。

【译文】但是大自然对人们平等观念却漠不关怀,渔业和野生动物服务组织一项

报告显示,北大西洋好几种海龟数量都在令人担忧地下降,特别是一种可以长到

400磅重大海龟。

4.

The narrow strips of beach on which the turtles lay their eggs are being squeezed on

one side by development and on the other by the threat of rising sea levels as the

oceans warm. (6月)

【分析】本句为复合句,主架为… beach… are being squeezed。on which… eggs

为定语从句,修饰beach。squeezed后接了两个由on one side… and on the other构

造连接状语:by development和by the threat。of rising sea levels为介词短语作threat

后置定语。as the oceans warm为因素状语从句。

【译文】一方面是人类开发,另一方面是海平面因海水变暖而上升,使得海龟们

产卵狭窄沙滩正在缩小。
