復(fù)雜的賓語(yǔ)從句以及表語(yǔ)從句的拆分和理解 例60

例60　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(jié)構(gòu)分析】該句是個(gè)典型的賓語(yǔ)從句，主干是I have discovered that...，其中有插入語(yǔ)，也就是as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress，后面是賓語(yǔ)從句，賓語(yǔ)從句的主語(yǔ)是兩個(gè)動(dòng)名詞短語(yǔ)并列構(gòu)成，第一個(gè)動(dòng)名詞短語(yǔ)是abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life"，第二個(gè)動(dòng)名詞短語(yǔ)making the alternative move into "downshifting"，賓語(yǔ)從句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是brings，后面是介詞短語(yǔ)with it做狀語(yǔ)，后面是賓語(yǔ)從句的賓語(yǔ)far greater rewards，后面是個(gè)比較級(jí)than financial success and social status。

【亮點(diǎn)回放】此句話的亮點(diǎn)在于一個(gè)超長(zhǎng)插入語(yǔ)的使用，使得discover和that產(chǎn)生巨大的脫節(jié)，導(dǎo)致判斷賓語(yǔ)從句很難，而且賓語(yǔ)從句里面充滿了大量的動(dòng)名詞，對(duì)賓語(yǔ)從句的動(dòng)詞的判斷產(chǎn)生困難。

【核心詞匯】

much-publicized resignation　在媒體的關(guān)注之中辭去

the editorship　雜志的主編

after a build-up of stress　在壓力變得沉重之后

abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life"　放棄“兼職”的理念

making the alternative move into "downshifting"　下一個(gè)舉動(dòng)是“辭職”

far greater rewards　更大的回報(bào)

financial success and social status　經(jīng)濟(jì)收入和社會(huì)地位

【參考譯文】我已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)了放棄“兼職”的理念，下一個(gè)舉動(dòng)是“辭職”。這樣做所帶來(lái)的回報(bào)遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不止是經(jīng)濟(jì)收入和社會(huì)地位。也許，Kelsey在壓力變得沉重之后，在媒體的關(guān)注之中辭去了該雜志的主編職務(wù)后也會(huì)有同感。
