考研英語中長難句三大典型特點分析之語序顛倒

　　二、語序顛倒

　　這里的語序顛倒在考研中最明顯的一種情況就是賓語后置情況， 而且往往會考試中造成很大的障礙，那么什么叫做賓語后置呢？

　　這里先舉一個簡單的例子，比如很多男同學在交女朋友的時候心里往往會許下心愿： I will make you happy. 這句話的結構很簡單：主+謂+賓+賓補，可是在考研當中往往會因為賓語較長而把賓語放到補足語的后面，比如： 2003年翻譯中的65題：

　　Thus, the anthropological concept ofculture, like the concept of setin mathematics, is an abstract concept which makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.

　　分析：這句話中which引導定語從句修飾concept, makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.直譯過來就是“創造出可能的大量的具體研究及理解”，可其實這句話中的possible是賓語補足語，它真正的結構是makes immense amounts of concrete research and understanding possible,即：“使大量的具體研究和認識成為可能”。

　　這里給大家舉出另外一句話供同學們思考：

　　Friedrich Engels, however, predicted that women would be liberated from the social, legal, and economic subordination of the family by technological developments that made possible the recruitment of the whole female sex into public industry.
