长难句解析

She¹ had been watching² him³ the last hour, she said, as he walked up and down the street⁴, and had Mr. Wickham appeared⁵, Kitty and Lydia⁶ would certainly have continued⁷ the occupation⁸, but unluckily no one⁹ passed¹⁰ the windows now except a few of the officers, who in comparison with the stranger, were become "stupid, disagreeable fellows."¹¹

解：1主语+2谓语+3宾语+4时间状语从句+5虚拟条件句+6主语+7谓语+8宾语+9主语+10谓语+11定语从句

析：①虚拟语气：had Mr. Wickham appeared, Kitty and Lydia would certainly have continued the occupation

本句是与过去事实相反，条件从句的谓语用过去完成时“had+过去分词”，主句谓语用“would(should, could, might)+have+过去分词”，还省略了连词if，所以使用了倒装句型，即将从句中的had提到句首~Rt1dK~T|Tl-)。

②定语从句：who in comparison with the stranger, were become "stupid, disagreeable fellows"

该从句修饰先行词the officers，关系代词who在从句中作主语8I;Pc[@Lt!cZiHk-。
