Just a brother

　　It was the final① part of the 2016 World Triathlon Series② in Mexico.[1]With just 700 metres to go, Alistair Brownlee was in third place and his younger brother, Jonny, was in the lead③. Alistair pushed④ himself towards the finish line⑤ in the burning⑥ heat⑦，[2]but as he came round the corner, he saw his brother about to fall onto⑧ the track⑨.[3]Alistair had to choose⑩—brotherly⑪ love, or a chance⑫ to win the race？

[1] with＋宾语＋不定式构成with复合结构。

[2]but引导并列句，as引导时间状语从句。

[3]不定式作后置定语，修饰chance 。

For Alistair, the choice⑬ was clear. His brother was in trouble⑭. He had to help. Alistair ran towards⑮ Jonny, caught him and started pulling⑯ him towards the finish line. Alistair then pushed his brother over ⑰the line. The move put Jonny in second place and Alistair himself in third. It was an unexpected⑰ end to the race, but Alistair did not want to discuss⑲ it with the media⑳. He just wanted to see his younger brother，[4]who had been rushed to the medical area.

[4]who 引导定语从句，修饰brother。

只是一位兄长

　　这是2016年在墨西哥举行的世界铁人三项系列赛的最后一程。离终点只有700米，阿利斯泰尔·布朗利位列第三，他的弟弟乔尼则处于领先地位。阿利斯泰尔在燃烧的高温中奋力奔向终点，但就在他转过弯道时，却看到弟弟快要摔倒在跑道上。阿利斯泰尔必须做出选择——是要手足之情，还是要赢得比赛？

对阿利斯泰尔来说，如何选择显而易见。弟弟遇到麻烦了，他必须施以援手。阿利斯泰尔跑向乔尼，抓住他，并拖着他跑向终点。接着，阿利斯泰尔把他的弟弟推过终点线。这一举动使乔尼名列第二，而他自己名列第三。这是一个意料之外的结局，但阿利斯泰尔不想和媒体讨论此事。他只是想去探望被紧急送到医疗区的弟弟。

　　The Brownlee brothers have been doing triathlons since they were children. “Obviously，[5]when your older brother is doing it, you think it's a cool thing to do，” says Jonny. Alistair says that they encourage each other as much as they can when they train. Despite arguments over “stupid things” now and then， Alistair agrees [6] that having a brother is an advantage. “Throughout my entire life, I've had my brother trying to beat me at everything [7] I do. It has been an enormously positive force.”

[5]when引导时间状语从句，it's a cool thing to do是宾语从句，to do作后置定语。

[6]that引导宾语从句，having a brother作主语。

[7]此处为定语从句，先行词为everything，引导词省去。

[8]Watched by millions, the ending to the race has divided opinions: should the brothers have been disqualified or highly praised for their actions? But for Alistair，[9] this decision was easy to explain: “Mum wouldn't have been happy if I'd left Jonny behind.” At that moment， he was no longer an athlete [10] aiming for a medal—he was just a brother.

[8]过去分词短语作状语。

[9]本句为“主语＋be＋adj.＋不定式”结构，不定式用主动形式表示被动意义。

[10]分词短语作后置定语修饰athlete。

　　布朗利兄弟从小就参加铁人三项。“显然，当你的哥哥参加铁人三项时，你会觉得这是一件很酷的事情。”乔尼说道。阿利斯泰尔称，他们在训练时尽可能互相鼓励对方。尽管偶尔会为一些“愚蠢的事情”争吵，阿利斯泰尔仍然觉得有个兄弟是一种优势。“在我的一生中，我弟弟总试图在各个方面打败我。这是一股非常积极的动力。”有数百万人目睹了这场比赛的结局，但对此也是众说纷坛：这对兄弟是应该因他们的行为被取消比赛资格，还是应该被高度赞扬？但对阿利斯泰尔而言，他的决定很容易解释：“要是我撇下乔尼，妈妈肯定不会高兴的。”在那一刻，他不再是一名想赢得奖牌的运动员——他只是一位兄长。
