新gre阅读长难句复习解析（2）

　　A、since之后的it指前面的statement，highlight的宾语an aspect之后有两个修饰成分，一个是of her literary interests，另一个是以that引导的定语从句that is very different from the traditional picture of the poetic novelist，都是修饰an aspect的。Novelist后面又有由and 连接的两个介词结构concerned with doing 修饰novelist.

　　B、句中有两处省略，一是在her literary interests that is very different from当中，修饰interests的定语从句中引导词+be that is一起省略了。第二处在and之后，由于concerned with与前面的concerned with重复，所以concerned被省略。

　　C、本句另外一个难懂的地方，就是使用了大量的抽象词。这是文学式评论题材的文章的一个特点。
