復雜的定語從句的拆分和理解 例6

例6　Even today, in our industrial life, apart from certain values of industriousness and thrift, the intellectual and emotional reaction of the forms of human association under which the world's work is carried on receives little attention as compared with physical output.

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】這句話開頭是兩個介詞短語做狀語，第一個介詞短語是in our industrial life，第二個介詞短語是apart from certain values of industriousness and thrift，句子的主干的主語是the intellectual and emotional reaction of the forms of human association，后面是個定語從句under which the world's work is carried on修飾前面的主語，動詞是receives，賓語是little attention，后面是分詞狀語as compared with physical output，修飾整個句子。

【亮點回放】此句話的亮點在于兩個超級介詞短語做狀語，后面的定語從句也很經(jīng)典，該定語從句前面有個介詞under，用得很準確。

【核心詞匯】

in our industrial life　在工業(yè)化生活中

certain values of industriousness and thrift　某些勤儉的價值觀

the intellectual and emotional reaction of the forms of human association　各種人們交往的知識和情感反應

receive little attention　幾乎沒有受到關(guān)注

as compared with physical output　與其他的物質(zhì)產(chǎn)出相比

【參考譯文】即使今日，在工業(yè)化生活中，與其他的物質(zhì)產(chǎn)出相比，某些勤儉的價值觀以及各種人們交往的知識和情感反應幾乎沒有受到關(guān)注，而在這些交往之中世人的活動才得以延續(xù)。
