华慧考博英语:(长难句分析)答疑精选点评
学员疑问:老师,麻烦帮忙分析下这个长难句以及翻译下句子: In general, studies suggest that infants who are securely attached are better equipped to cope with new experiences and relationships, and research is accumulating to suggest that poor attachment in infancy could be an early precursor on the developmental pathway to later psychopathology.
老师解答:句子主干为In general, studies suggest that…and research is accumulating to suggest that…; that infants are better equipped to cope with new experiences and relationships为that引导的,跟在suggest后面的宾语从句;who are securely attached为who引导的定语从句,用来修饰infants;that poor attachment in infancy could be an early precursor on the developmental pathway为that引导的,跟在suggest后面的宾语从句;to later psychopathology为介词短语做后置定语,用来修饰pathway. 翻译为 一般来说,研究表明,安全地同父母在一起的婴儿能较好地根据新经历和新关系做出调整。越来越多的研究说明,婴儿发展心理学时期父母若照料得不好,可能会引发以后的精神病。
点评分析: 该句长难句属于专业类的长难句,不仅要对从句知识有比较好的认识,还要对心理学知识有一定的了解,才能既把结构看清楚,也把意思看明白。
