復(fù)雜的定語從句的拆分和理解 例2

例2　Gilbert's own interest in new music has been widely noted: Alex Ross, a classical-music critic, has described him as a man who is capable of turning the Philharmonic into "a markedly different, more vibrant organization."

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】冒號前面的句子主干是Gilbert's own interest in new music has been widely noted，冒號后面的主語是Alex Ross，后面是插入語a classical-music critic，動詞是has described，直接賓語是him, as后面是間接賓語a man，后面是定語從句who is capable of turning the Philharmonic into "a markedly different, more vibrant organization"。

【亮點回放】此句話的亮點在于冒號后面是個定語從句，該定語從句的形容詞是兩個超級褒義詞，different和vibrant。

【核心詞匯】

widely noted　廣泛的關(guān)注

a classical-music critic　一名古典音樂的批評家

capable of　能夠

Philharmonic　愛樂樂團(tuán)

markedly different　完全不同的

more vibrant　更加有活力的

【參考譯文】Gilbert對新音樂興趣已經(jīng)被廣泛的關(guān)注了：Alex Ross，一名古典音樂的批評家，就這樣描述道：他能夠把愛樂樂團(tuán)變成一個完全不同，更加有活力的組織。
