长难句解析
He1 wisely resolved to2 be particularly careful3 that no sign of admiration should now escape him4, nothing that could elevate her with the hope of influencing his felicity5; sensible that if such an idea had been suggested, his behaviour during the last day must have material weight in confirming or crushing it6.
解:1主语+2谓语+3宾语+4目的状语+5定语从句+6宾语从句
析:①目的状语从句:that no sign of admiration should now escape him
此处that引导的从句表示“careful(当心)”的目的
。②定语从句:that could elevate her with the hope of influencing his felicity
that引导的定语从句修饰先行词nothing,that在从句中作主语,不可省略
。③宾语从句:that if such an idea had been suggested, his behaviour during the last day must have material weight in confirming or crushing it
该宾语从句中包含一个if引导的条件状语从句,主句谓语部分使用情态动词must表示肯定猜测
