长难句解析

Over the past decade, more consumers (主语) have been buying (谓语) products (宾语) made with artificial sweeteners instead of sugar, according to a new study, published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

这个句子有点长，先找主干。more consumers have been buying products，主干是简单主谓宾结构，主语 more consumers ,谓语 have been buying ，宾语 Products。更多的消费者一直在购买产品。什么样的产品？products 后面的 made with artificial sweeteners instead of sugar 作定语用来修饰 products，再看看句子的其他成分，整句话开头表明了时间，Over the past decade，在过去的十年中，最后句末补充说明了这个结论的出处，according to a new study, 根据一项新研究，什么样的研究呢？后面继续对 study 补充说明，published in 发表于the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics，《营养与饮食学会杂志》。
