托福長難句分析:老師灌輸知識(shí)
The teachers who took part in the program also told me of their worries that they might be force-feeding their pupils information rather than stimulating the discussion necessary to ensure they grasped the importance to them of what they were being taught.
【參考譯文】參與節(jié)目的老師們還告訴我,他們擔(dān)心自己可能是在向?qū)W生強(qiáng)行灌輸知識(shí)與信息,而不是激勵(lì)他們討論,以此保證他們能掌握他們所學(xué)知識(shí)的要領(lǐng)。
【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】本句成分復(fù)雜。主語The teachers 后跟who引導(dǎo)的定語從句who took part in the program also told me of their worries…作修飾語,關(guān)系代詞who在從句中作主語。told后我們可以認(rèn)為是雙賓語(對(duì)象+內(nèi)容),直接賓語部分their worries后跟that引導(dǎo)的名詞性從句that they might be force feeding their pupils information rather than stimulating the discussion necessary to ensure…說明worries的具體內(nèi)容。ensure后面的賓語是一個(gè)省略了引導(dǎo)詞that的賓語從句they grasped the importance to them of…,grasped的賓語the importance of…被不定式結(jié)構(gòu)to them分隔,of構(gòu)成的介賓短語的賓語由what引導(dǎo)的名詞性從句充當(dāng),且從句使用了被動(dòng)語態(tài)的現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)。
