  59. 下面例句为一倒装句,主语很长,而且又含有非常复杂的句型。这是以形容词作表语的倒装,翻译实践中多把倒装部分译到最前面。

  No less obvious is the fact there are great numbers of people so constituted or so brought up that they cannot get so much pleasure out of processes and experiences resulting in a poorer life less full of meaning.

  60. "what…of"句型

  I can not say of myself what Johnson said of Pope: He never passed a fault unamended by indifference, nor quitted it by despair. I do not write as I do; I write as I can.

  61. 英语的一个习惯用法是:当否定谓语think(believe)时,实际上是否定其后面的宾语从句。否定就落在宾语从句上。这样宾语从句就变成了双重否定,译时可以按双重否定译,也可按肯定来译

  It is a valuable work. I do not think anyone writes so well that he cannot learn much from it.

  62. "to have not…(as) to see…"中的不定式也有否定意味。

  He had not the good breeding to see that simplicity and naturalness are the truest marks of distinction.

  63. "It occurred to sb. that…"意为"突然想到","It dawned on sb.that…"."突然想起"等。 从句是想起的内容。

  I remember once being on a bus and looking at a stranger. He suddenly looked back at me-i.e.our eyes met. My instinctive reaction was to avert my gaze. It occurred to me that if I had continued to maintain eye contact, I would have been rude and aggressive.
