　　下面是育路考研網為各位考研學子手機整理的考研英語真題翻譯長難句分析，供大家參考：

　　1. If experiments are planned and carried out according to plan as faithfully as the reports in the science journals indicate, then it is perfectly logical for management to expect research to produce results measurable in dollars and cents. (1999. 閱讀. Text 5)

　　【譯文】如果實驗是像科學雜志上的報告所示的那樣如實地根據計劃規劃和實施的話，那么對管理層來說，期待研究能夠產生可以用金錢衡量的結果是完全合理的。

　　【析句】首先抓主干，主干是一個帶有條件狀語從句的復合句If experiments are planned and carried..., then it is perfetly logical...。if條件狀語從句中有一個比較結構as faithfully as the reports...indicate，相比較的成分是experiments are planned and carried out 和the reports...indicate，因為動詞不同，所以后面不能用do代替，例如He runs faster than I do。主句中出現了it作形式主語，真正的主語是后面的動詞不定式to expect research to...。

　　2. It is entirely reasonable for auditors to believe that scientists who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there should not be distracted by the necessity of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope. (1999. 閱讀. Text 5)

　　【譯文】審計人員也完全有理由相信，確切知道自己的目標并知道如何實現這一目標的科學家們根本沒必要在一只眼盯著顯微鏡時，還要分心用另一只眼睛盯著現金計數器。

　　【析句】因為it此處作形式主語替代不定式引導的主語從句，所以真正的句子主干應該是to believe that... is entirely reasonable.主語從句中的主干是scientists should not be distracted by the necessity...register，后面有while引導的時間狀語從句。主語從句里又包含多個從句：who know ...引導定語從句，修飾scientists;where...goingand how...there是know的賓語從句。長句里包含從句，從句中又包含從句，是英語長句難以理解的主要原因。

　　3. Nor, if regularity and conformity to a standard pattern are as desirable to the scientist as the writing of his papers would appear to reflect, is management to be blamed for discriminating against the “odd balls” among researchers in favor of more conventional thinkers who “work well with the team.” (1999. 閱讀. Text 5)

　　【譯文】如果科學家們做試驗和寫論文一樣步驟規范、遵守要求，那么管理層就不該因歧視研究者中"思維與眾不同的人"、喜歡其中思想較為傳統的"善于團隊合作"的人而受到指責了。

　　【析句】英語復合句中，從句的位置比較靈活，可根據需要放在句前、句中、句后。這里就是從句放在句子的例子，割裂了主句，增加了閱讀的困難程度。本句是由一個完全否定的主句nor is management to be blamed for...和一個條件狀語從句組成的if regularity and conformity are...as...as...(比較結構)構成。主語從句中連續用了三個介詞，for表原因，aganist表反對，in favor of表支持，要注意英語中介詞的應用;thinkers后是who引導的定語從句。
