长难句解析
Mrs. Bennet1 sent2 them3 word4 that they could not possibly have the carriage before Tuesday5; and in her postscript it6 was added7 that, if Mr. Bingley and his sister pressed them to stay longer8, she could spare them very well9.
解：1主语+2谓语+3间接宾语+4直接宾语+5同位语从句+6主语+7谓语+8条件状语从句+9宾语从句
析：①同位语从句：that they could not possibly have the carriage before Tuesday
此同位语从句解释说明word的内容。
②宾语从句：that, if Mr. Bingley and his sister pressed them to stay longer, she could spare them very well
that引导的从句作added的宾语，宾语从句中包含一个if引导的条件状语从句，主句是she could spare them very well。
③主句it was added用的是一般过去时，所以that引导的宾语从句用相应的过去时态。
