难句解析:
①The worker who gets a promotion,the student whose grades improve,the foreigner wholearns a new language-all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show fortheir efforts.
该句破折号前是三个带有定语从句修饰的名词短语The worker ...the student...the foreigner,破折号后是系表结构these are examples其中的代词these复指前面的三个核心名词,people后跟有一个who引导的定语从句。
译文:工人得到升迁、学生成绩提高和外国人学会了一门新的语言―—这些都可以表明人们付出努力之后,取得了可测定的成绩。
②The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have,theircaution or courage,as they encounter new experiences and unexpected obstacles.
此句主干是The process is not...but rather...,并列连词not......but rather...意思是“不是...而是..” 。如: The old man is not a coward,but rather a man of high spirit,本句中 but rather连接的表语成分是the attitudes and feelings people hav和 their caution or courage as引导的是时间状语从句。
译文:成长过程不是道路本身,而是当遭遇新的情况或未预料到的坎坷时所持的态度和情感,是慎重行事还是勇往直前。
