and political leaders of seventeenth-century New England.87、While few craftsmen or farmers, let alone dependents and servants, left literary compositions to be analyzed, it is obvious that their views were less fully intellectualized.(八十六)88、It is difficult to the point of impossibility for the average reader under the age of forty to imagine a time when high-quality arts criticism could be found in most big-city newspapers.(八十七)89、“So few authors have brains enough or literary gift enough to keep their own end up in journalism,” Newman wrote, “that I am tempted to define ‘journalism’ as ‘a

particular case to conduct a broad review of business-method patents.(九十)92、Curbs on business-method claims would be a dramatic about-face, because it was the Federal Circuit itself that introduced such patents with its 1998 decision in the so-called State Street Bank case, approving a patent on a way of pooling mutual-fund assets.(九十一)93、Later, more established companies raced to add such

with the finding that influentials have far less impact on social epidemics than is generally supposed.(九十四)97、The researchers’ argument stems from a simple observing about social influence: with the exception of a few celebrities like Oprah Winfrey—whose outsize presence is primarily a function of media, not interpersonal influence—even the most influential members of a population simply don't interact with that many others.(九十五)98、Charlie McCreevy, a European commissioner, warned the IASB that it did "not live in a political vacuum" but "in the real word" and that Europe could yet develop

least some Times readers as faint praise.(九十七)100、Johnson & Johnson, for example, has created BabyCenter, a stand-alone media property that promotes complementary and even competitive products.(九十八)(九十九)(一○○)(一○一)(一○二)(一○三)(一○四)(一○五)(一○六)(一○七)(一○八)(一○九)(一一○)(一一一)(一一二)(一一三)(一一四)(一一五)(一一六)(一一七)(一一八)(一一九)(一二○)(一二一)(一二二)Whatever(状语从句)the differences two people may exhibit in jobs or careers(工作或事业), those differences are swamped by how well/ deeply each person loves their parents(宾从).不管两个人在工作或者事业上表现的差异有多大,这些差异在他们关爱父母的程度面前都显得无足轻重。

17. While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications will pay him to employ you and your wares and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner.解析:该句主干是While …, your could-be employer is deciding whether... and your wares and abilities must be displayed...。

前一个分句中while引导状语从句,decide 后面是whether引导的宾语从句,该从句中并列主语为your education, your experience, and other qualifications,谓语部分为pay him,后面是不定式做的状语。

and后面的并列句是被动语态,其中in … manner为方式状语。

词汇:pay sb. to do sth. 干某事对某人有利如:It will pay you to be careful.(小心谨慎对你有好处)could-be 可能的,未来的wares本义为“货物,商品”,这里表示应聘者能够展示出来的资格和能力。

译文:在与你面谈时,你未来的雇主将根据你的教育背景、经验和其他的资历来确定雇用你是否值得,因此你必须把你“待售的物品”和能力以有序而合理连贯的方式呈现出来。

18. The corporation will survive as a publicly-funded broadcasting organization,at least for the time being,but its role,its size and its programmes are now the subject of a nation-wide debate in Britain.解析:该句是由but连接的两个转折关系的分句。

前半句为The corporation will survive as …,其中at least for the time being的意思是“眼下,暂时”,这里做时间状语。

后半句的主干可以表达为A are the subject of B(A是B的对象)。

词汇:survive v. 幸存;战胜fund v.投资for the time being暂时译文:虽然至少目前,它仍可以以公办广播机构的身份生存下去,但它的作用、规模和节目类型却成了全英国争论的话题。

19. With economic growth has come centralization: fully 76 percent of Japan's 119 million citizens live in cities where community and the extended family have been abandoned in favor of isolated, two-generation households.【分析】with economic growth has come centralization是倒装结构,主语是centralization,谓语是has come,with economic growth是状语。

冒号后面fully 76 percent of Japan's 119 million citizens是主语,live谓语,in cities是地点状语,后面是where引导的定语从句。

从句中c ommunity and the extended family是主语,have been abandoned是谓语,in favor of引导状语结构。

【词汇】centralization n.集中化,中心化--->decentralize v.分散extended family 传统大家庭abandon v.放弃in favor of支持,[引申] 由…取代isolated a.孤立的[i我,sole自己,ate动词词尾]【译文】随着经济的增长集中化已经显现:日本 1.19亿公民中整整76%的人口定居城市,在这里,原来的社区和多代同堂的大家庭已被摒弃,取而代之的是与外界疏于往来的、只由两代人组成的核心家庭。

20. Luckily, if the doormat or stove failed to warn of coming disaster, a successful lawsuit might compensate you for your troubles. Or so the thinking has gone since the early 1980s, when juries began holding more companies liable for their customers' misfortunes.【分析】本句是两个句子结合。

在第一个句子中,if the doormat or stove failed to warn of coming disaster是从句,指门垫或炉灶没有警示语。

在第二个句子中,or 连接句子,so the thinking has gone是一个倒装结构,正常的语序应该是the thinking has gone so(人们是这么想的),go这个词的用法很灵活,有进展,进行的意思。

时间状语the early 1980s后面是when 引导的定语从句,其中juries是主语,began holding是谓语,后面是宾语more companies,liable for their customers’ misfortunes是形容词结构做修饰。

【词汇】fail to 未能lawsuit n. 诉讼compensate v.补偿jury n.陪审团hold v. [僻义]认为be liable for为…负责【译文】幸运的是,如果门垫或者是火炉没有能警告即将到来的灾难,你可以通过一场成功的法律诉讼来赔偿给你带来的麻烦。

从二十世纪八十年代的早期开始人们的想法就是这样了,那时候陪审团认为商家对消费者的不幸应该负担相应的责任。

21. Besides, this is unlikely to produce the needed number of every kind of professional in a country as large as ours and where the economy is spread over so many states and involves so many international corporations.【分析】这里的主语this,后面不定式短语is unlikely to produce的真正宾语是professional,前面的成分the needed number of every kind of是修饰这个词的短语,接着是地点状语in a country,其中country带了两个修饰成分:前一个是形容词性的短语as large as ours,后一个是where引导的定语从句,这个从句的主语the economy有两个谓语动词:is spread 和involves。

【词汇】be unlikely to不可能produce v.[翻译难词] 培养(人才),提供(服务),生产(商品)professional n.专业人员corporation n.公司【译文】另外,像我们这么一个大国,经济延展到这么多的州、涉及到这么多的国际公司,因而要按照数量培养出所需的各类专业人员是不大可能的。

[句中并没有因果词汇出现,翻译时可以加上,逻辑更清晰]22. But, for a small group of students, professional training might be the way to go since well-developed skills, all other factors being equal, can be the difference between having a job and not.【分析】前面for引导的状语表示的是对象,主干是professional training might be the way to go,since引导原因状语从句,从句主干结构是skills… can be the difference,all other factors being equal是一个独立主格结构,在本句中作插入语。

Difference后面带了一个介词短语between… and…,and后面的not出现省略,可以补全为not having a job。

【词汇】写作句型:for sb./sth., … might be the way to go 对于…,…也许是可取之路例句:For the current environmental problem, the effective supervision might be the way to go.对于目前的环境问题,有效的监管也许是条可取之路。

【译文】但是,对一小部分学生来说,职业教育也许是条可取之路。

因为在其他因素相同的情况下,技能的娴熟是得到工作与否的关键。

23. I have been transformed from a passionate advocate of the philosophy of “have it all”, preached by Linda Kelsey for the past seven years in the pages of She magazine, into a woman who is happy to settle for a bit of everything.【分析】主干结构是I have been transformed,后面是一个from…into…的结构,from a passionate advocate of the philosophy of “have it all” …into a woman。
