2021歷年考研英語(yǔ)經(jīng)典長(zhǎng)難句復(fù)習(xí)（九）

　　

　　The Dutch giant Elsevier, which claims to publish 25% of the scientific papers produced in the world, made profits of more than ￡900m last year, while UK universities alone spent more than ￡210m in 2016 to enable researchers to access their own publicly funded research; both figures seem to rise unstoppably despite increasingly desperate efforts to change them.

　　重點(diǎn)詞匯：unstoppably，increasingly，desperate

　　重點(diǎn)短語(yǔ)：claim to

　　解析：

　　該句主語(yǔ)為“The Dutch giant Elsevier”，非限制性定語(yǔ)從句“which claims to publish 25% of the scientific papers produced in the world”對(duì)其進(jìn)行限定修飾。謂語(yǔ)為“made”，賓語(yǔ)為“profits of more than ￡900m last year”，后面為一個(gè)由“while”引導(dǎo)的從句。

　　翻譯：

　　荷蘭巨頭愛(ài)思唯爾(Elsevier)聲稱(chēng)出版了世界上25%的科學(xué)論文，去年盈利超過(guò)9億英鎊，而英國(guó)大學(xué)僅2016年就花了超過(guò)2.1億英鎊讓研究人員進(jìn)行自己的公共資助研究;盡管越來(lái)越拼命地努力改變這種情況,這兩個(gè)數(shù)字似乎都在不停上漲。
