Task 5：攻克长难句(分析句子结构，尝试翻译成汉语)

1．They gave me presents of their favorite artworks which they had refused to sell to tourists.

分析：本句是一个复合句。which引导定语从句，先行词是“their favorite artworks”，指物，关系词在从句中作“sell”的宾语。

译文：他们将他们最喜欢的艺术品当作礼物送给我，而他们原来可是拒绝将这些艺术品卖给游客的。

2．I watched for the desert sunsets，and hunted for seashells that had been left there millions of years ago when the sands of the desert had been an ocean floor.

分析：此句中含有两个定语从句，第一个that had been left there...是修饰先行词seashells的，第二个when the sands of the desert had been an ocean floor是修饰先行词years。

译文：我看着沙漠的日落，寻找数百万年前留在那儿的贝壳，那里当时还是洋底。
