2018考研英语复习正在进行中,***老师的每日一句每年都很受关注,在长难句解析拆分句子的方法也讲解得十分到位,新文道考研汇总了***2018考研英语每日一句,下面是***每日一句第122句。
看惯了这凡尘俗世,一起把目光投向那遥远的苍穹吧!一颗离地球18光年的白矮星(white dwarf)Stein 2051 B的质量在长达一个世纪以来一直是争议的对象。现在一个天文家团队利用爱因斯坦首次预测的天体现象——引力透镜(gravitational lensing)衡量出了它的准确质量,结束了一桩百年公案(settled a 100-year-old debate)。研究者使用哈勃望远镜(Hubble Space Telescope)观测白矮星蚀掉(eclipse)另一个距离更远的恒星(more distant star),通过当时距离的变化数据算出了精确的结果。这也是爱因斯坦的相对论第一次运用在天体的质量测算(measure the mass)上。
今天的句子:
A ray of light normally travels in a straight line through empty space, but if the ray passes close by a massive object, the curve in space created by the star acts like a bend in the road, causing the light ray to veer away from its formerly straight path.
词汇突破:
1.Ray 光线
2.Massive 巨大的
3.Curve 曲线,曲面
4.Bend 弯曲
5.Veer away偏离
6.Path路径
确定主干:
并列一:A ray of light normally travels in a straight line through empty space.
并列二:but if…the curve in space acts like a bend in the road
切分成分:
1.if the ray passes close by a massive object条件状语从句
2.created by the star后置定语,修饰curve
4.causing the light ray to veer away from its formerly straight path 状语;
=the curve in space cause...
参考译文:光通常在真空中直线传播,但如果近距离经过一个质量极大的物体,恒星造成的空间曲面会像路中出现的弯道一样,让光偏离原来的直线路径。
明天的句子:
In September the British government introduced rules that require companies to appoint a “whistleblower champion” and prohibit retaliation against employees who bypass internal reporting procedures and go straight to the regulator.
