2016考研英语长难句解析系列5.docxVIP

　　本文属于社会生活类题材，主要讲述的是加拿大医疗开支的问题。对于广大考生而言，题材较为陌生，理解难度较大。文章在词汇方面，出现很多难懂的短语，如fork over(交出，付出，付钱)，get cracking about(开始做某事)。正是这个原因，导致长难句的难度也略高。重点是要对长难句进行断句，找到句子的主干，辨识出不同形式的定语、同位语和状语方法，并且识别并列结构。下面就其中的5个句子进行详解：　　【典型例句1】Canada’s premiers (the leaders of provincial governments), if they have any breath left after complaining about Ottawa at their late July annual meeting, might spare a moment to do something, together, to reduce health-care costs.　　【例句分析】本句是一个主从复合句，主干是Canada’s premiers might spare a moment to do something, together。if引导的条件状语从句，作为插入语分割开原句的主语和谓宾部分。(the leaders of provincial governments)是括号引出的同位语，句末的to reduce health-care costs是目的状语。条件状语从句中，主干是they have any breath left，they指的是Canada’s premiers。after complaining about Ottawa at their late July annual meeting是介词短语做时间状语。　　【难点点拨】“have any breath left”意为“还有力气或精力”。　　【例句译文】在七月底的年度会议上，加拿大各省省长们对渥太华抱怨一番后，如果还有力气的话，可能会抽出时间做点事情来减少医疗费用。　　【典型例句2】Instead of each province having its own list of approved drugs, bureaucracy, procedures and limited bargaining power, all would pool resources, work with Ottawa, and create a national institution.　　【例句分析】本句的主干是all would pool resources, work with Ottawa, and create a national institution，主语all指代的是all provinces，并列谓语动词pool、work with和create。Instead…power是介词短语做状语，each province是动词having的逻辑主语，have的宾语是list、bureaucracy、procedures和 limited bargaining power，其中of approved drugs是介词短语做定语，修饰list。　　【难点点拨】pool意为“合伙集中利用，共用，资源共享”。　　【例句译文】所有省都应该资源共享，与渥太华合作创建一个国家性的机构，来代替现在每个省出台自己的药物清单、有自己的机构、程序和有限的议价能力这种情况。　　【典型例句3】So, if the provinces want to run the health-care show, they should prove they can run it, starting with an interprovincial health list that would end duplication, save administrative costs, prevent one province from being played off against another, and bargain for better drug prices.　　【例句分析】本句是一个主从复合句，主干是they should prove they can run it。if引导条件状语从句，starting…prices是现在分词短语做方式状语，其中包括that引导的定语从句that…prices，修饰list。　　【难点点拨】run the show意为“负责某事，主管”;interprovincial“省际的，省与省之间的”; duplication“重复”; play sb.
