(1998/54) 【结构分析】 这个句子的是tudy can help to resolve conflicts。但是理解的重点却在study后面的修饰成分，study后面，说明study的内容：study of the impacts of dams和study) of the cost and benefits of controlling water。第个of修饰的是the cost and benefits两个名词，of后面是个动名词短语。这个修饰成分解决了，后面的就好理解了。 对坝的影响的成本和收益进行恰当而科学的研究能够有助于解决这些冲突。. The great interest in exceptional children shown in public education over the past three decades indicates the strong feeling in our society that all citizens, whatever their special conditions, deserve the opportunity to fully develop their capabilities. (1994/60) 【结构分析】 此句结构比较复杂，上来先应该抓住其主谓宾结构The great interest... indicates the strong feeling...。 而主语the great interest后面有一个很长的后置定语修饰成分，首先是介词in exceptional children做其后置定语，然后是shown in public education做interest的第二个后置定语，over the past three decades是个介词短语。宾语the strong feeling后面有一个同位语从句that all citizens, whatever their special conditions, deserve the opportunity to fully develop their capabilities。在同位语从句里面，还用了一个插入成分，做补充说明，注意whatever their special conditions是用来修饰all citizens的。名词opportunity后面接了不定式做后置定语。 【核心词汇】 exceptional children 特殊儿童；show interest in对…感兴趣；over the past three decades在过去的三十年里；deserve应该得到【参考译文】过去30年间公共教育所表现出的对特殊儿童的大关注表明了存在于我们社会中的那种强烈的感受，即所有公民，不论情况特殊与否，都应该得到全面发展其能力的机会。 . Some of these causes are completely reasonable results of social needs. Others are reasonable consequences of particular advances in science being to some extent self-accelerating. (1996/71) 【结构分析】 这两个句子的主谓都相对简单。第一个句子的主语是some of these causes，而第二个句子的主语是代词others，它指代前面出现过的名词causes。但是第二个句子的谓语后的表语reasonable consequences后面接了一个很长的后置定语，首先是介词of修饰consequences，然后又是介词in science修饰前面的名词advances，最后是现在分词being to some extent self-accelerating修饰前面的名词sc
