Ⅲ.课文难句分析

1．Living with host families，in which there may be other college students，gives her the chance to learn more about the new culture.

[句式分析]　此句为复合句。Living with host families是动名词短语作主语；in which引导非限制性定语从句，修饰host families；不定式to learn more about the new culture作定语，修饰the chance。

[自主翻译]　房东家也许会住着其他大学生，跟这样的家庭住在一起给她提供了更好地了解新文化的机会。

2．He wanted to know what I thought，which confused me because I thought that the author of the article knew far more than I did.

[句式分析]　此句为复合句，what引导宾语从句；which引导非限制性定语从句，指代上文的整件事情；because引导原因状语从句；that引导宾语从句。

[自主翻译]　他想要知道的是我想的是什么，这倒把我弄糊涂了，因为我认为该文章的作者比我知道的要多得多。
