抓住句子主干，是突破ACT阅读中
“复杂修饰”类长难句的最有效方法。下面我们来看3个长难句，重点分析一下如何进行“复杂修饰”类长难句主干的抓取。
1. Generations of teachers have assigned Thoreau's book Walden (1854)， which recounts his experiment in living in solitary harmony with nature， as an illustration of the intensity with which nineteenth-century America protested the intrusion into pastoral harmony of the forces of industrialization and urbanization.
主干分析：teachers have assigned Walden as an illustration
难句特点：复杂修饰。which recounts his experiment...with nature是定语从句，修饰Walden;in living in solitary harmony with nature是介词短语作定语，修饰experiment;with which nineteenth-century America...and urbanization是定语从句，修饰intensity;of industrialization and urbanization 是介词短语作定语，修饰forces，of the forces是介词短语作定语，修饰intrusion。
重点词汇：assign v. 分配，指派，指定;recounts v. 详述某事，重新计算;solitary a. 单独的，独居的，幽静的; illustration n. 插图，图表，说明，例证; protested v. 抗议，反对，声明; intrusion n. 闯入，打扰，干涉; pastoral a. 牧师的，田园的，农村生活的; industrialization n. 工业化; urbanization n. 城市化，文雅化
中文翻译：十九世纪的美国人强烈抗议工业化和城市化力量对田园自然的入侵，很多代老师都将梭罗的《瓦尔登湖》看作其抗议强烈程度的例证，这本书写了梭罗与自然和谐独居的经历。
2. Lack of accuracy and fairness， too much sensationalism and bias are all components of the problem， but the number one issue is that “people distrust our motives，” said Tom Rosenstiel， founding director of the Project for Excellence in Journalism， who hopes to get more journalists thinking about standards.
主干分析：lack of accuracy and fairness， too much sensationalism and bias are components，but the number one issue is that people distrust our motives
难句特点：复杂修饰。of the problem是介词短语作定语，修饰components;founding director修饰Tom Rosenstiel;who引导定语从句，修饰Tom Rosenstiel;thinking about standards是分词作宾语补足语。
重点词汇：accuracy n. 精确性，准确性; fairness n. 公平，清晰，美好; sensationalism n. 耸人听闻，哗众取宠; bias n. 偏见 a. 偏斜的 ad. 偏斜地 v. 使存偏见; components n. 成分，组成部分，元件; journalist n. 新闻工作者，记日记者
中文翻译：缺乏准确性及公正性，过多的耸人听闻及偏见，都是问题的构成部分，但最大的问题是“人们不信任我们的动机”，Tom Rosenstiel这样说道，他是卓越新闻项目的负责人，他希望能让更多的记者对准则进行思考。
3、I leaned forward and concentrated down into the invisible shape he had drawn， trying to see the changes that would come， the nighttime rising of dammed water bringing a new lake up with its choice lots， its marinas and beer cans， and also trying to visualize the land as Lewis said it was at that moment， unvisited and free.
句子主干：I leaned forward and concentrated down into the invisible shape
难句特点：复杂修饰。he had drawn是定语修饰shape;trying to see是分词作状语，表伴随;and also trying to visualize也是分词作状语，表伴随;the changes，the nighttime rising of dammed water都是see的宾语;bringing a new lake up是分词作宾语补足语，修饰the nighttime rising of dammed water;as Lewis said it was at that moment作定语，修饰land，unvisited and free对land作进一步解释。
重点词汇：lean v. 倾斜，倚靠，依赖 n. 倾斜 a. 贫乏的，瘦的; invisible a. 看不见的，暗藏的;nighttime a. 夜间的 n. 夜间; marina n. 小艇停靠区;can n. 罐，罐头; visualize v. 使形象画，设想，想像
中文翻译：我身子向前倾，关注了一下他画的那个看不见的形状，试图看看那些将会来临的变化，还有晚上水坝的水位上涨而形成的一个新的湖面，连带着一些小玩意儿，小艇码头还有啤酒罐，我还试着去想像Lewis形容的那片在那个时候还未经开采的，空闲着的土地。
以上就是关于ACT考试要素的总结，从ACT考试所必须要精力的对考题的参考，对例子的积累等内容都进行了分析。大家可以在备考自己的ACT考试的时候，进行适当的参考。
