復(fù)雜的非謂語動(dòng)詞的理解 例308

例308　Some have breathed sighs of relief, others, including churches, right-to-life groups and the Australian Medical Association, bitterly attacked the bill and the haste of its passage, but the tide is unlikely to turn back.

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】前半句是個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單句，Some have breathed sighs of relief，后半句主干是others bitterly attacked the bill and the haste of its passage.其中后半句在主語和動(dòng)詞之間有個(gè)插入語including churches, right-to-life groups and the Australian Medical Association，后面是個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折句子。

【亮點(diǎn)回放】此句話的亮點(diǎn)在于多次轉(zhuǎn)折，some和others形成一對(duì)隱蔽的轉(zhuǎn)折，重心偏到了others上面，后面又來個(gè)直接的but，重心又偏到了but后面，連環(huán)轉(zhuǎn)折奧妙無窮，增加了文章的懸念。

【核心詞匯】

breathed sighs of relief　松了一口氣

right-to-life groups　倡導(dǎo)生命之權(quán)的團(tuán)體

Australian Medical Association　澳大利亞醫(yī)學(xué)協(xié)會(huì)

bitterly attacked　尖銳地抨擊

bill　法案

haste of its passage　法案的通過過于匆忙

the tide is unlikely to turn back　大勢(shì)已定，不可逆轉(zhuǎn)

【參考譯文】一些機(jī)構(gòu)終于松了一口氣，但是其他一些機(jī)構(gòu)，包括教堂，倡導(dǎo)生命之權(quán)的團(tuán)體和澳大利亞醫(yī)學(xué)協(xié)會(huì)，尖銳地抨擊這個(gè)法案，指責(zé)法案的通過過于匆忙。但是大勢(shì)已定，不可逆轉(zhuǎn)。
