长难句分析

解:1主语+2谓语+3宾语从句+4定语从句+5时间状语从句

析:①宾语从句:that he thought they were ready to start making objects fly

该句的引导词是that,其中he thought作插入语。

②定语从句:they had all been dying to try

该句修饰先行词something,此处省略了关系代词that,关系代词在从句中作宾语。当先行词是指物的不定代词(something,anything等)时,引导词宜用that,当先行词是指人的不定代词(somebody,anybody等),引导词宜用who。
