C、 第二個修飾成分中又來了一個倒裝，由于作者為了強調never,所以將其提前，引發了定語從句中的倒裝：正常語序應該是that might never be given away，倒裝后系動詞was被提前，given因為在情態動詞might之后所以變成了原型give。A give way to B，是A讓位于B，而A be given way to B，　則是A取代B。on the part of 之后的部分修飾后面的desire, what引導的從句現場閱讀時可以看成一個名詞。What從句中的不定式to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower中又有一個避免頭重腳輕的倒裝，正常語序應該是to record the structure and texture of a flower exactly and concretely。

D、 就算能夠看懂這句話的結構，可能仍然理解不了意思。本句的意思是，哈代(注：人名老的沖動是一種簡單的、說明現實的欲望，新沖動是一種即是小說家又像科學家的仔細研究一個東西的特點那樣的欲望（新沖動），前一種欲望是永遠也不能取代后者的。

意群訓練：（This is ）A desire to throw over reality a light that never was might give away abruptly to the desire on the part of what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower .

3. Hardy's weakness derived from his apparent inability to control the comings and goings of these divergent impulses and from his unwillingness to cultivate and sustain the energetic and　risky ones. （3）

難句類型：復雜修飾、省略、抽象詞

譯文：哈代的缺陷一方面緣起于他的某種明顯的無能，無法控制好那結不盡相同的創作沖動的穿梭往來；另一方面緣起于他不愿意去培養和維持那些富于生機活力和風險性強的創作沖動。

解釋：介詞from的賓語有兩個并列的部分，由and所連接，在and之后的第二個from前，省略了前面一樣的謂語動詞derive。本句之所以難，有兩個原因，一是derived from 后面的成分太長，初學者難以一下子看下來；二是作為一篇文科文章，用詞抽象，難以迅速理解。

意群訓練：Hardy's weakness derived from his apparent inability to control the comings and goings of these divergent impulses and from his unwillingness to cultivate and sustain the energetic and risky ones.

4. Virginia Woolf's provocative statement about her intentions in writing Mrs. Dalloway has regularly been　ignored by the critics, since it highlights an aspect of her literary interests very different from the traditional picture of the "poetic" novelist concerned with examining states　　of reverie and vision and with following the intricate pathways of individual consciousness. （5）

難句類型：復雜修飾、省略、抽象詞

譯文：弗吉尼亞.伍爾夫（Virginia Woolf）在創作《黛洛維夫人》（Mrs. Dalloway）時有關其創作意圖的這番發人深思的陳述，迄今為止一貫為文學評論家們所忽略，因為它突出反映了她諸多文學興趣中某一方面，而這一方面則與人們對“詩性”小說家（poetic novelist）所形成的傳統見解大相徑庭。所謂的“詩性”小說家，所關注的是審視想入非非和白日夢幻的諸般狀態，并致力于追尋個體意識的通幽曲徑。

解釋：本句逗號以前只有復雜修飾的長主語有些難，但總的來講比較好懂，since引導的原因狀語從句較難。

A、 since之后的it指前面的statement, highlight的賓語an aspect之后有兩個修飾成分，一個是of her literary interests，　另一個是以that引導的定語從句that is very different from the traditional picture of the poetic novelist，都是修飾an aspect的。Novelist后面又有由and 連接的兩個介詞結構concerned with doing 修飾novelist.

B、 句中有兩處省略，一是在her literary interests that is very different from當中，修飾interests的定語從句中引導詞＋be that is 一起省略了。第二處在and之后，由于concerned with與前面的concerned with重復，所以concerned被省略。

C、 本句另外一個難懂的地方，就是使用了大量的抽象詞。這是文學市評論題材的文章的一個特點。

Virginia Woolf's provocative statement about her intentions in writing Mrs. Dalloway has regularly been　ignored by the critics, since it highlights an aspect of her literary interests very different from the traditional picture of the "poetic" novelist concerned with examining states　　of reverie and vision and with following the intricate pathways of individual consciousness.
