成人英语三级

1、Exercise

Our forefather had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials; most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were “limitless” and “inexhaustible”

But one thing is certain: information and knowledge will become even more vital, and the people who possess it, whether they work in manufacturing or services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth.

They appear to do everything in a rush, with an eye on the clock, as if they had a short time to live.

要点分析和参考译文

要点：分号前后为两个并列句。在第二个分句中，even until very recently 时间状语插入在主语 most of them和谓语had之间。Them指代前一句的forefathers.

参考译文：我们前辈不知道人口会比原材料供应增长得要快;甚至到最近以前大多数人还错误得认为自然资源是无限的，永远不会消耗尽。

要点：并列句and 之后的主语 the people和谓语will have之间插入whether引导的状语从句。

参考译文：可是有一点是肯定的：信息和知识将变得更加重要。拥有信息和知识的人无论是在生产行业还是在服务行业工作，都会有优势并能创造财富。

要点：介词短语“with an eye on the clock”为插入语，在句子中做状语。“as if”引出方式状语从句，谓语动词是虚拟语气。

2、Exercise

Ideally then, a school system should be one in which the love of learning, rather than the acquisition of facts , is cultivated.

Still, he could not help thinking that if anything should happen, the nearest person he could contact by radio, unless there was a ship nearby , would be on an island 885 miles away.

Yet this other life has its interests, its enjoyments, its satisfaction, and , at certain rare intervals, a peaceful glow or a sudden excitement.

要点分析和参考译文

要点：one 后面有一个in which 引导得定语从句，其中rather than the acquisition of facts是插入语，可以看成是主语the love of learning的并列成分

参考译文：因此，理想的教育制度应该是培养学生酷爱学习，而不是获得实际的东西

要点：虚拟条件句“if anything ……885 miles away.”是thinking的宾语从句，作thinking的宾语。在这个虚拟条件句的主句中，主语和谓语之间插入了一个条件状语从句“unless there was a ship nearby”，使得主谓分离。

参考译文：他仍禁不住寻思起来，要是果发生什么意外，如果附近连一条船也没有，他用无线电能联系上得最近得人远在885英里以外得岛上。

要点：句中 interests, enjoyments, satisfaction, glow和excitement共五哥并列成分，皆作宾语。 At certain rare intervals为插入语，意为“间或，偶尔”。

参考译文：然而这另一种生活也有它的趣味，欢乐和满足，并间或有一种宁静得喜悦或一阵突发得激动。
