4月22號補長難句35,36
While even the modestly educated sought an elevated tone when they put pen to paper before the 1960s, even the most well regarded writing since then?has?sought?to capture spoken English on the page.
生詞:
modestly: 副詞,意思是“謙虛地,不夸張地,樸素地或得體地”
sought: 動詞 seek 的過去分詞,意思是“尋找,追求,請求或渴望”
regarded: 動詞 regard 的過去分詞,意思是“看待,認(rèn)為,尊重或涉及”
?elevate /?el?ve?t/ v. 提升,舉起?
well regarded 受到好評的
capture /?k?pt??(r)/ v. 充分體現(xiàn);俘獲,奪得
分析語句:分4句
主干:even the most well?regarded?writing
讓步狀語從句:While even the?modestly?educated?sought?an elevated tone
(the+ 形容詞 educated,表示一類人副詞 modestly 修飾形容詞)
時間狀語從句:when they?put?pen to paper before the 1960s
原因狀語從句:since then?has?sought?to capture spoken English on the page.非謂語動詞 to do 的詞組作賓語其中 on 介詞短語修飾動詞 capture,表示地點
翻譯:在1960年之前,即便是受教育不多的人在下筆時都會尋求一種高雅的腔調(diào),但從那以后,甚至是最受好評的文章都力求在書面語上使用口語化的英語。
