Task 4　Analyse some long and difficult sentences.

1．But then I figured I’d better just go all out and see what happens.(P11 Para.6)

[结构分析] 此句为主从复合句；I’d better just...see what happens是省略了that的宾语从句，

作动词figured的宾语；what引导的是宾语从句，what在该从句中作主语。

[汉语翻译] 不过接着我就觉得，最好还是全力以赴考考看。

2．But life is not always easy.(P11 Para.7)

[结构分析] 此句为简单句；not与always连用表示部分否定，意为“并不总是”。

[汉语翻译] 可是生活并非总是一帆风顺。

3．At first I was really sad，but later I realized that I joined the team for the love of the sport.(P11 Para.8)

[结构分析] 此句为并列复合句；but后的分句中含有that引导的宾语从句，作realized的宾语。

[汉语翻译] 开始我非常沮丧，但是后来我意识到，我是因为热爱这项运动才加入球队的。

4．Is there anything else in particular that you’d like to share with us？(P12 Para.9)

[结构分析] 此句为主从复合句；that引导定语从句，修饰先行词anything。

[汉语翻译] 你还有没有其他特别想和大家分享的事情呢？

5．Looking back on my high school life，the most important advice I’d give is these wonderful words from the writer Maya Angelou.(P12 Para.10)

[结构分析] 此句为主从复合句；looking back on...life为现在分词短语作状语；I’d give是省略引导词that的定语从句，修饰先行词advice。

[汉语翻译] 回顾高中生活，我能给大家的最重要的建议是作家玛雅·安吉罗的一句精彩名言。

debate  n．& v．讨论，辩论

[译林版] There is still much to be explored and debated on the subject of genome editing.关于基因编辑这一主题，仍有诸多内容有待探索与讨论。
