復(fù)雜的形式主語(yǔ)和形式賓語(yǔ)的拆分和理解 例207

例207　It is entirely reasonable for auditors to believe that scientists who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there should not be distracted by the necessity of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope.

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】It is entirely reasonable for auditors to believe...，后面是賓語(yǔ)從句that，賓語(yǔ)從句的主語(yǔ)是scientists，后面加上很長(zhǎng)的定語(yǔ)從句who know exactly，定語(yǔ)從句后面有兩個(gè)超級(jí)賓語(yǔ)從句where they are going and how they will get there，賓語(yǔ)從句的真正的動(dòng)詞是should not be distracted by，賓語(yǔ)是of結(jié)構(gòu)，the necessity of keeping one eye on the cash register，后面是狀語(yǔ)從句while the other eye is on the microscope。

【亮點(diǎn)回放】此句話的亮點(diǎn)是it無(wú)主句套上定語(yǔ)從句，定語(yǔ)從句套上兩個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句，后面又加上狀語(yǔ)從句，很復(fù)雜，特別是并列的賓語(yǔ)從句。
