新东方考研英语必背500句

第338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.

译文:最近的行动是由白宫召集了一批来自国家科学院的专家小组告诉我们,地球气候无疑正在变暖,而这主要是人为因素造成的。

点睛:本句的主干为the latest was a panel…,这是典型的主系表结构。表语panel后接两个定语成分:from引导的介词短语和含enlisted的过去分词短语,即“白宫召集的、来自国家科学院的专家团”。不定式短语to tell us that…表目的,其中tell后面接有两个由that引导的宾语从句。definitely意为“明确地;肯定地”。

the team will definitely lose if he doesn't play.
如果他不参加比赛,这个队肯定会输。

largely意为“在很大程度上;主要地”。

his failure is largely due to timidity.
他的失败主要是由于胆小。
