大學英語四級考試閱讀理解難句解析
1.I have also witnessed a player reacting to his opponent蒺s intentional and illegal blocking by deliberately hitting him with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play.
分析主干：I have witnessed a player reacting
reacting 在句中是現在分詞，作賓語a player 的補語;by... hitting...是reacting 的方式狀語，hitting 作介詞by 的賓語。as hard as he could 是比較結構，表示盡力。
譯文：還有一次我看到過一個球員在比賽中因為對方的一個有意犯規阻擋，而故意使足了力氣把球砸向對方。
2.Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.
分析主干：someone will glance...
本句是個簡單句，謂語動詞glance 后接介詞短語through purchases or bills。不定式短語to find out...在句中作狀語，表示無意中一瞥的結果。
譯文：或者有人會隨意翻閱你的信用卡購物單或手機話費單，以此來了解你的購物喜好或通話習慣。
3.It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didnt want to deal with gender issues.
分析主干：It took me 10 years to get back... and to realize...
句首的It 是形式主語，真正的主語是and 并列的兩個動詞不定式。第一個不定式to get back 的賓語the confidence 后有一個定語從句I had at 19 對它加以修飾。第二個不定式to realize 帶了一個賓語從句，由that 引導。
譯文：我花了10 年的時間才找回了我19 歲時的自信，才意識到我本不想談論性別問題。
4.If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting thought, the thought will die.
分析主干：the thought will die
本句的難點在從句部分。If 引導條件狀語從句，從句用了listen to sb. do sth.結構，省略to 的不定式correct 作補語;that 5th grade English teacher 用了借喻的修辭手法，指代你心中的那個批判性思維。while 引導的時間狀語從句修飾are listening。
譯文：如果你在聽五年級的英文老師糾正你的語法，而同時你又盡力在捕捉一個稍縱即逝的想法，那么，你的想法就會消失得無影無蹤。
5.Store managers are often the last to hear complaints, and often find out only when their regular customers decide to frequent their competitors, according to a study jointly conducted by Verde Group and Wharton School.
分析主干：managers are the last to... and find out...
1.conducted 是過去分詞作study 的后置定語。
2.不定式to hear...作后置定語，修飾the last，一般可以直接理解為最不可能聽到這些投訴的人。
3.when 引導的時間狀語從句修飾find out。該狀語從句中，to frequent...作decide 的賓語。frequent 用作動詞，表示經常光顧。譯文：維德集團和沃頓商學院共同開展的一項研究顯示，商店經理常常是最后一個聽到顧客抱怨的人，而且只有當他們的老顧客開始頻頻光顧他們的競爭對手的時候他們才會發現顧客對他們的不滿。
