  1. Other theorists propose that the Moon was ripped out of the Earth's rocky mantle by the Earth's collision with another large celestial body after much of the Earth's iron fell to its core. (4)

  其他的理论家提出,在地球的大部分铁沉入到地核之后,由于地球与另一个庞大的天体发生碰撞,月亮便从地球那石质的地幔中撕裂开来而形成的。Rip:撕开;拨去;在本文是撕开的意思。

  难句类型:复杂修饰

  解释:这个句子虽然还算短,但结构并不简单,句中共有三介词结构作状语。结构的复杂在本句中给读者带来了真正的阅读困难:月亮、地球、大型天体之间的关系如何?三个事件之间的先后顺序怎样?另外的一个难点在于,在the Moon was ripped out of the Earth's rocky mantle这段话中,be ripped out of something可以作两种解释。Rip既有撕开的意思,又有剥去的意思,而此处的be ripped out of something很被读者理解成被剥夺走某物的意思。实际上,根据对上下文的理解,这里应该理解成从某物中撕裂出来的意思。

  意群训练:Other theorists propose that the Moon was ripped out of the Earth's rocky mantle by the Earth's collision with another large celestial body after much of the Earth's iron fell to its core.

  2. However , recent scholarship has strongly suggested that those aspects of early New England culture that seem to have been most distinctly Puritan, such as the strong religious orientation and the communal impulse, were not even typical of New England as a whole, but were largely confined to the two colonies of Massachusetts and Connecticut. (4)

  然而,进来的学术研究强烈的显示那些看来最为明确的请教徒的早期新英格兰文化的一些方面,比如强烈的宗教导向和团体意识,就整体而言却不是新英格兰的典型特征,而是在很大程度上只局限与马萨诸赛和康涅狄格两个州。

  难句类型:复杂修饰、插入语

  解释:宾语从句的主语those aspects后面跟着长长的修饰成分of early New England culture that seem to have been most distinctly Puritan。不但如此,主语和表语之间又被长长的插入语such as分开,而且表语也不是一个,而是were not,but were的结构,使得句子十分难读。
