难句突破
1.Minority youths arrested on violent felony charges in California are more than twice as likely as their white counterparts to be transferred out of the juvenile-justice system and tried as adults, according to a study released last week by the Justice Policy Institute, a research center in San Francisco.
主体句式:Minority youths are more than
结构分析:这是一个比较长的简单句。more than twice as likely as their white counterparts是一种表示倍数的表达方式;to be transferred out of the juvenile-justice system and tried as adults不定式短语来修饰white counterparts; according to a study released last week by the Justice Policy Institute是现在分词做伴随状语;a research center in San Francisco是the Justice Policy Institute的同位语。
