小編前言：閱讀是四級(jí)英語中重要的得分點(diǎn)和難點(diǎn)，對(duì)長難句的分析則決定了對(duì)閱讀的徹底理解，也是學(xué)習(xí)語法，積累高級(jí)詞匯、句型不可或缺的來源。而四級(jí)英語真題閱讀部分均選自Times、Telegraph等著名外文報(bào)紙及雜志，其行文和詞匯原汁原味，值得考生細(xì)細(xì)品味和靈活借鑒。準(zhǔn)備2013年12月英語四級(jí)的同學(xué)們，還等什么？趕快學(xué)起來吧！同時(shí)，歡迎各位考生針對(duì)例句的翻譯及分析給出自己的理解哦！

1. I headed off to college sure I was going to have an advantage over those?students who went to big engineering “factories” where they didn't care if you had values or were flexible. (2001. 閱讀. Text 3)
【譯文】我就上了這樣的大學(xué)，自然比那些在大工程“工廠”的學(xué)生更有優(yōu)勢(shì)，在那里沒有人關(guān)心你是否有價(jià)值觀，是否靈活多變。
【析句】復(fù)合句。主句I headed off to college sure I was going to have an advantage over those students, sure此處是副詞。who went to big engineering factories作those students的定語從句，定語從句后又有從句，where they didin't care...作big engineering factories的定語從句，care后是if引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。

2. The reason for the change is that now there are dozens of companies across the country buying discarded plastic soda bottles and turning them into fence posts, paint brushes, etc. (2001. 閱讀. Text4)
【譯文】產(chǎn)生這種變化的原因是由于如今全國有數(shù)十家公司正在收購廢塑料汽水瓶，并把它們變成柵欄柱、粉刷等用品。
【析句】復(fù)合句。主句The reason for the change is that+表語從句。表語從句中，主句there are dozens of companies across the country,而buying...and turning...則是現(xiàn)在分詞作定語，相當(dāng)于which buy...and turn...。

3. A discard remains a discard until somebody figures out how to give it a second life—and until economic arrangements exist to give that second life value. (2001. 閱讀. Text4)
【譯文】如果沒有人直到如何賦予它們新生命，廢物永遠(yuǎn)是廢物——而廢物處理不夠經(jīng)濟(jì)廉價(jià)，那么它們的新生命就失去了價(jià)值。
【析句】復(fù)合句。主句為A discard remains a discard,后面跟有兩個(gè)until引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語從句，其中第二個(gè)從句在破折號(hào)后，進(jìn)行強(qiáng)調(diào)。
