2018考研英語長(zhǎng)難句解析（四）

America has some of the world’s most impressive manufacturing facilities. But talk of “renaissance” is certainly overblown. Growth is being driven by a small number of industries, which are hiring few new workers. And even high-tech operations, at which America should excel, are struggling.
    詞匯突破：
    1. facilities 設(shè)備，能力
    2. impressive令人印象深刻的(一般表語的時(shí)候就是形容一個(gè)人和事優(yōu)秀)
    3. manufacturing 制造業(yè)
    4. renaissance 復(fù)興
    5. overblown 被夸大的
    6. industry 工業(yè)(產(chǎn)業(yè))
    7. excel at 擅長(zhǎng) (還有一個(gè)搭配是 excel in,是一個(gè)意思)
    8. struggling 掙扎 (通常就是指境遇不好)
    結(jié)構(gòu)分析：
    第一句：
    America has some of the world’s most impressive manufacturing facilities.
    美國(guó)擁有某些世界上最為優(yōu)秀的制造設(shè)備。
    第二句：
    But talk of “renaissance” is certainly overblown.
    但是“復(fù)興”這種說法確實(shí)言過其實(shí)了。
    第三句：
    Growth is being driven by a small number of industries, which are hiring few new workers.
    增長(zhǎng)是由一小部分產(chǎn)業(yè)帶來的，這些產(chǎn)業(yè)基本沒有雇傭新的工人。
    (注釋：是否促進(jìn)就業(yè)人口增加是產(chǎn)業(yè)復(fù)蘇的標(biāo)志之一)
    第四句：
    And even high-tech operations, at which America should excel, are struggling.
    切分為兩句：
    1. at which America should excel
    = America should excel at high-tech operations.
    2. And even high-tech operations are struggling.
    美國(guó)應(yīng)該擅長(zhǎng)高技術(shù)含量產(chǎn)業(yè)，但這些產(chǎn)業(yè)也還在苦苦掙扎
