以下是gre阅读长难句实例分析。gre长难句一直都是考生比较头疼的一个问题,不是因为gre考试专门考察这部分,而是在gre阅读中需要明白这些长难句才能理解整篇文章的意思。
Its subjectis life-as-spectacle, for readers, diverted by its various incidents,observe its hero Odysseus primarily from without;the tragic Iliad,however,presents life-as-experience:readers are asked to identify with the mind of Achilles,whose motivations render him a not particularly likable hero.
其主题〔若借鉴梅纳德。迈克的两个分类范畴的话〕是人生作为外部景象,因为读者的注意力被作品那形形色色的事件所分散,主要是从外部来观察其主人公奥德修斯的;然而,富于悲剧色彩的《伊利亚特》所表现的则是人生作为内心体验:读者被要求与阿基琉斯的心灵产生共鸣,而其行为动机却致使他变作一个并非特别惹人喜爱的主人公。
注:hero:主人公;without:外部;likable:有吸引力的
难句类型;复杂修饰、插入语、抽象词、熟词僻义
请思考:如果看不懂分号前的without的意思,是否可以用合理化原则根据分号后的那句话推理出其意思?
解释:本句中尽管也存在一些复杂修饰和插入的内容,但是本句话之所以难懂,与其说是因为这些东西的影响,倒不如说是因为用词的抽象和语义的难以理解。作为一篇文学评论型的文章,文章中充斥着一些很抽象的词汇;本句话中就有subject/category/spectacle/divert/incident/hero/primarily/without/present/identify/motivation/particularly/likable等。背过这些单词的中文释义,并不意味着在阅读中能够清楚地理解其真正含义。这里仅解释几个对于这句话最重要的单词:
hero:在此不是指英雄,在文学评论型的文章当中,此单词的意思是主人公。
Without:在此处是一个熟词僻义,意思是外部,等于outside。
Likable:不可望文生义,它不是像什么东西的意思,而是有吸引力的意思,其同义词有pleasant或attractive.
本句中,对于理解全句起到最大影响的,就是能否正确理解without这个单词,然而问题在于,如果不认识without的熟词僻义,是否可用合理化原则根据分号后的那句话推理出其意思?根据紧跟着分别的however,我们可以推断出分号前后的两句话所说的内容截然相反,因此可以从I戏剧的描述中推出,without的意思应该是不去认同其主人公的内心世界。
意群训练:Its subjectis life-as-spectacle, for readers,diverted by its various incidents,observe its hero Odysseus primarily from without;the tragic Iliad,however,presents life-as-experience:readers are asked to identify with the mind of Achilles,whose motivations render him a not particularly likable hero.
