復雜的分割結構（插入語）的理解 例231

例231　I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life", and making the alternative move into "downshifting" brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status.

【結構分析】主干是I have discovered that...，動詞和賓語之間有很長的插入語as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress，后面是that引導的賓語從句，賓語從句的主語是兩個動名詞短語abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life"和making the alternative move into "downshifting"，賓語從句的動詞是brings，賓語是far greater rewards。

【亮點回放】此句話的亮點在于插入語特別長，很有氣勢，而且賓語從句很有特色，里面居然用了兩個超級動名詞短語abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life"和making the alternative move into "downshifting"，后面的賓語上還有比較級，值得學習的是作文可以用長的并列的動名詞短語。

【核心詞匯】

much-publicized resignation　公開地辭去

editorship　編輯一職

build-up of stress　不堪積勞重負

abandoning the doctrine　放棄那種人生信條

juggling your life　為生活忙碌

alternative　生活理念

downshifting　比較悠閑的生活

far greater rewards　回報

financial success and social status　經濟成功和社會地位

【參考譯文】或許正像凱爾西在不堪積勞重負而公開地辭去她在《她》雜志社的編輯一職之后一樣，我已經發(fā)現，放棄那種“為生活忙碌”的人生信條并轉而追求比較悠閑的生活帶給你的回報遠遠大于經濟成功和社會地位。
