下面是2014年6月英语六级阅读真题长难句解析,请考生仔细分析句子结构。
1. Conflict, defined as opposition among social entities directed against one another is distinguished from competition, defined as opposition among social entities independently striving for something which is in inadequate supply.
【译文】冲突的定义是社会实体与另一实体间的对抗,而竞争的定义是不同社会实体间独立争夺供应不足的资源而发生的对抗。这两者的性质是截然不同。
【析句】主句是Conflict is distinguished from competition,主语conflict后,defined as oppostion among social entities directed against one another为过去分词作定语,相当于which is defined as...。同样,介词宾语competition后也有相同的结构,使得句子前后对称。而后一句中,social entities后又有striving for some thing现在分词作定语修饰social entities,而something后是which引导的定语从句。
2. While it is true that this competition may induce efforts to expand territory at the expense of others, and thus lead to conflict, it cannot be said that war-like conflict among nations is inevitable, although competition is.
【译文】这种竞争可能真得会导致国家竭力侵占他国以扩大本国领土,冲突随之产生,但是即使国家之间的竞争是不可避免的,也不能说发生类似战争的冲突同样无法避免。
