这课中我们继续来聊聊长难句：

1. 英文中的“长尾”结构

原句回放1：The actual figure was made of copper supported by a metal framework which had been especially constructed by Eiffel.

The actual figure was made of copper / /supported by a metal framework // which had been especially constructed by Eiffel.

如何理解？长尾句理解技巧：______ + ______【听记1】

阅读思维轨迹：

核心信息（主干）：The actual figure was made of copper

细节信息1（枝叶）：supported by a metal framework

注意：分词后置定语supported by= which was supported

细节信息2（枝叶）：which had been especially constructed by Eiffel.

润色译文：雕塑的实体部分是由铜制成，由埃菲尔专门制造的（定语前置）一个金属框架支撑着。

问同学们一个有趣的问题：英文的句子可以写多长？ 

答案：_________【听记2】

为啥？_________【听记3】

比如：

The actual figure was made of copper / supported by a metal framework / which had been especially constructed by Eiffel,/ who also designed the Eiffel Tower, / the symbol of Paris.

为啥英文多长句，而中文多短句？

我们来试着造个英文句子：

我们来到了一个神秘的城堡。

城堡里住着一位美丽的公主。

她有一个魔镜，这个魔镜可以预测未来。

We arrived at a mysterious castle/ where there was a beautiful princess/ who owned a magic mirror / that could predict the future.

原句回放2：Ever since then, the great monument has been a symbol of liberty for the millions of people who have passed through New York Harbour to make their homes in America.

阅读思维轨迹：

核心信息（主干）：Ever since then, the great monument has been a symbol of liberty /

细节信息1（枝叶）：for the millions of people /

细节信息2（枝叶）：who have passed through New York Harbour to make their homes in America.          

润色译文：从那时起，对于千百万穿过纽约港来到美国定居的人们而言，这座雄伟的纪念碑已经成为了自由的象征。

2. 英文中的“长颈鹿句型”

比如，本课中的第三个句子：

The great statue, which was designed by the sculptor Auguste Bartholdi, took ten years to complete.

主干：The great statue took ten years to complete.

细节（“长脖子”）：which was designed by the sculptor Auguste Bartholdi

这种句子怎么轻松理解呢？

The great statue (去除which) was designed by the sculptor Auguste Bartholdi.  

（补充主语It）took ten years to complete.

好，下面我们一起来造一个长颈鹿句型。

思考：如何用一句英文表达下面两句中文的信息？

1.这个魔镜是公主在森林中捡到的。

2.它告诉公主，一个英俊的王子将在下个月路过这座城堡。

The magic mirror , which was picked up by the princess in the forest, told her that a handsome prince would pass by the castle the following month.

听记答案： 

1.断句；脑补

2.理论上可以无限长

3.英语的逻辑是先判断后细节，细节意味着可以无限延伸和补充。
