復(fù)雜的賓語從句以及表語從句的拆分和理解 例52

例52　But brain researchers have discovered that when we consciously develop new habits, we create parallel synaptic paths, and even entirely new brain cells, that can jump our trains of thought onto new, innovative tracks.

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】這句話是個典型的賓語從句，也就是brain researchers have discovered that...，賓語從句開頭是個時間狀語從句when we consciously develop new habits，賓語從句的主語是we，動詞是create，賓語是連個并列的名詞短語，第一個短語是parallel synaptic paths，第二個短語是entirely new brain cells，后面是定語從句that can jump our trains of thought onto new, innovative tracks，修飾前面的名詞短語。

【亮點回放】此句話的亮點在于多種從句的層層相套，賓語從句里面套上狀語從句，里面再套上定語從句，很有特色。

【核心詞匯】

brain researchers　大腦研究人員

consciously develop new habits　有意識地培養(yǎng)新的習(xí)慣

create parallel synaptic paths　創(chuàng)建了平行路徑

entirely new brain cells　全新的腦細(xì)胞

jump our trains of thought onto new, innovative tracks　讓我們思緒的列車跳轉(zhuǎn)到新的創(chuàng)新軌道上來

【參考譯文】但大腦研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，當(dāng)我們有意識地培養(yǎng)新的習(xí)慣，就創(chuàng)建了平行路徑，甚至是全新的腦細(xì)胞，可以讓我們思緒的列車跳轉(zhuǎn)到新的創(chuàng)新軌道上來。
