復(fù)雜的并列句的拆分和理解 例258

例258　In the American economy, the concept of private property embraces not only the ownership of productive resources but also certain rights, including the right to determine the price of a product or to make a free contract with another private individual.

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】這句話考的是not only...but also...這種固定搭配，這句話的主語是the concept of private property，動(dòng)詞是embraces，其中第一個(gè)賓語是the ownership of productive resources，第二個(gè)賓語是certain rights，后面加上分詞定語including the right修飾前面的名詞，后面再加上兩個(gè)并列的不定式短語做定語，一個(gè)是to determine the price of a product，一個(gè)是to make a free contract with another private individual。

【亮點(diǎn)回放】此句話的亮點(diǎn)在于大并列和小并列，大并列是兩個(gè)賓語，小并列是兩個(gè)不定式并列，很經(jīng)典。

【核心詞匯】

private property　私有財(cái)產(chǎn)

embrace　包括

ownership of productive resources　生產(chǎn)資料所有制

make a free contract　簽訂自由合同

【參考譯文】在美國經(jīng)濟(jì)中，私有財(cái)產(chǎn)的定義不僅包括生產(chǎn)資料的所有制，還包括某些權(quán)利，比如定價(jià)權(quán)或與另外一個(gè)個(gè)體戶簽訂自由合同的權(quán)利。
