  难句译注

  1. A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best jumbled up with a lot of other things, so that he has difficulty in laying his hand upon it.

  【结构简析】主从句结构,主句A fool … 后跟lumber的定从that he comes across。从句so that 中有一knowledge的定从which; or链接前后两个分词crowded out 与jumbled up;但第一个so that 从句又是后面so that 的主句。

  【参考译文】蠢人把他碰到的每种木材(制家具)都拿进来。这样,可能对他有用的知识都被挤出去;最好的情况下,也是和其他种种事情混在一起,所以他就很难抓住知识。

  2. Its somewhat ambitious title was “The Book of Life, ” and it attempted to show how much an observant man might learn by an accurate and systematic examination of all that came in his way.

  【结构简析】并列句,连词and后的句中有宾从how much…。

  【参考译文】这片文章稍有炫耀的标题是“生命之书”。它想证明一个善于观察的人通过对他经历到的一切事情都进行真正地系统地考察可以学到多少东西。
