1. In terms of our capacity to sample the relevant universes, however, and the probability that our images of these universes are at least approximately correct, one suspects that a reverse order is more reasonable. (1995. 阅读. 1. Text 3)

【译文】然而,从我们在这几个领域抽取样本的能力来看,加上我们对这些领域的印象至少大体上是正确的,因此可以假设采用相反的顺序更加合理。

【析句】主句是one suspects+that宾语从句,in terms of是介词短语,our capacity to sample...and the probability...是in terms ofd的并列的宾语。capacity后to sample the relevant universes为不定式作宾语,而the probability后that our images of these universes are...correct是定语从句。注意,universes这里是领域的意思。

2. Even the folk knowledge in social systems on which ordinary life is based in earning, spending, organizing, marrying, taking part in political activities, fighting and so on, is not very dissimilar from the more sophisticated images of the social system derived from the social sciences, even though it is built upon the very imperfect samples of personal experience. (1995. 阅读. 1. Text 3)

【译文】即使是社会体系中作为收入、消费、组织活动、结婚、参加政治活动、战斗等日常行为的基础的民俗知识,也与从社会科学中产生的更加复杂精密的社会系统图像非常相似,即使这种社会系统的基础是有缺陷的个人经历。

【析句】复合句,主句为Even the folk knowledge in social systems is not very dissimilar from the more sophisticated images of the social system...,even在主句中作副词,主句主语the folk knowledge in social systems后有which引导定语从句,先行词作on的宾语,因此定义出句中把on放在which的前面。最后,主句后是even though引导的让步状语从句。

3. Our image of the astronomical universe is the least secure of all simplybecause we observe such a fantastically small sample of it and its record-keeping is trivial as compared with the rich records of the social systems, or even the limited records of biological systems. (1995. 阅读. 1. Text 3)

【译文】我们对于天文领域的印象是三种领域中最不稳定的,这只是因为我们仅仅看到了很少却美妙的案例,与社会体系丰富的记录,甚至和生活体系有限的记录相比,天文领域中保持的记录实在是微不足道。

【析句】主句Our image of the astronomical universe is the least secure of all,because引导原因状语从句。从句中包含两个并列的句子,分别是we observe such a fantastically small sample of it,和its record-keeping is trivial as compared with..., 其中包含了词组as compared with, 意思是与...相比。

4. Conflict, defined as opposition among social entities directed against one another is distinguished from competition, defined as opposition among social entities independently striving for something which is in inadequate supply. (1996. 阅读. 1. Text 2)

【译文】冲突的定义是社会实体与另一实体间的对抗,而竞争的定义是不同社会实体间独立争夺供应不足的资源而发生的对抗。这两者的性质是截然不同。

【析句】主句是Conflict is distinguished from competition,主语conflict后,defined as oppostion among social entities directed against one another为过去分词作定语,相当于which is defined as...。同样,介词宾语competition后也有相同的结构,使得句子前后对称。而后一句中,social entities后又有striving for some thing现在分词作定语修饰social entities,而something后是which引导的定语从句。

5. While it is true that this competition may induce efforts to expand territory at the expense of others, and thus lead to conflict, it cannot be said that war-like conflict among nations is inevitable, although competition is. (1996. 阅读. 1. Text 2)

【译文】这种竞争可能真得会导致国家竭力侵占他国以扩大本国领土,冲突随之产生,但是即使国家之间的竞争是不可避免的,也不能说发生类似战争的冲突同样无法避免。

【析句】复合句。首先是while作连词引导的与主句含义相反的句子,while it is true that this competition may induce efforts to expand...and thus lead to conflict,it is true that从句中,it作形式主语,真正的主语是后面的that引导的主语从句。主句在句中,同样是it作形式主语,真正的主语是后面的that从句,而 that从句中,主句是war-like conflict is inevitable,后面是although引导的让步状语从句。

6. Having evolved when the pace of life was slower, the human brain has an inherent defect that prevents it from absorbing several streams of information simultaneously and acting on them quickly. (1996. 阅读. 1. Text3)

【译文】人脑在生活节奏更慢的过去得到进化,因此人脑内部存在着缺陷,使它不能同时理解多条信息流并迅速采取行动。

【析句】复合句。主句是the human brain has an inherent defect,defect后是定语从句that prevents it from absorbing...and acting...。主句前,having evolved...是现在分词作原因状语,同时句子中又包含了时间主语从句when the pace of life was slower表明having evolved的时间。
