GRE閱讀：長句、難句重磅解析

portrayals of the folk of mecklenburg county, north carolina, whom he remembers from early childhood, of the jazz musicians and tenement roofs of his harlem days, of pittsburgh steelworkers, and his reconstruction of classical greek myths in the guise of the ancient black kingdom of benin, attest to this.(5)

一些描述,關(guān)于他從小就記得的北卡羅來納州的m縣的人民、關(guān)于他在h的日子里的爵士樂手和公寓的房頂、關(guān)于匹茲堡的鋼鐵工人的描述和他的假借古代b國對古希臘神話得寵俗,都表現(xiàn)了這一點。in the guise of :假借、在…的幌子下,假裝。

難句類型：復雜修飾

解釋：本句主語之長,主語的長度與謂語長度的比例之大,是極為罕見的,在最后的三個單詞attest to this之前的所有內(nèi)容,全是主語,主語和謂語的比例達到了46比3。不熟秋gre和gmat句式的人是很難把這句讀懂的。句子的主語實際上是一個由and連接的并列結(jié)構(gòu),而真正的主語只有兩個：portrayals 和his reconstruction.portrayals后面長度驚人的修飾成分以三個大列舉的方式說出了其描述的對象,其中第一個列舉中又包含了一個定語從句,修飾前面的folk(人、人們、人民、民族),第二個主語的修飾成分中使用了一抽象詞組：in the guise of,相當于一個介詞,其意思是假借,在……的幌子下,假裝。

意群訓練：portrayals of the folk of mecklenburg county, north carolina, whom he remembers from early childhood, of the jazz musicians and tenement roofs of his harlem days, of pittsburgh steelworkers, and his reconstruction of classical greek myths in the guise of the ancient black kingdom of benin, attest to this.
