長難句:the latest was a panel from the national academy of sciences,enlisted by the white house,to tell us that the earth’s atmosphere is definitely warming and that the problem is largely man-made.

重點詞匯: panel,enlist

■答案■

1、長難句: 最近的行動是由白宮召集了一批來自國家科學(xué)院的專家,這些專家告訴我們地球氣候確實在變暖,而這個問題主要是人為造成的。

分析: 本句的主干是the latest was a panel,過去分詞短語enlisted by the white house作后置定語,修飾panel。另外,不定式短語to tell us作panel的補語,而不定式短語后又接兩個(間接)賓語從句,說明告訴了我們哪些情況。

2、 panel表示“面板;陪審團,(專門)小組。”a(the) panel of judges(評審小組)。congress has appointed a panel to investigate the incident.(國會任命了一個專門小組來調(diào)查這一事件。) enlist的基本意思為“征召;參軍;謀取(支持、贊助等)”。according to the law,a young man should enlist when he is eighteen.(根據(jù)法律規(guī)定,年滿十八歲必須應(yīng)征入伍。)the president talked to some congressional leaders,in an effort to enlist their support for the bill.(總統(tǒng)與一些國會的領(lǐng)袖談了話,以爭取他們支持這項議案。)
