【长难句】
His attempts to put his characters on TV mostly failed,because directors made them tooone-dimensional.
【长难句解析】
His attempts(a)// to put his characters on TV (b)//mostly failed,(a)//because directors made them tooone-dimensional.(c)
【唐叔解读】
本句的主干为a部分。b部分为不定式结构做后置定语修饰前面的名词attempts。c部分为because引导的原因状语从句。
c部分one-dimensional中的dimension为名词,表示“维(构成空间的因素);尺寸”,我们日常生活中经常听到的3D就是“three dimension”,再比如“computer design tools that work in three dimensions”(计算机三维
设计工具)那么在本句中加上al,构成形容词,表示“一维的”,所谓一维的,其实就是表示角色塑造的“单一”。
【参考译文】
他想把自己的角色搬上电视的(b)//尝试大多都失败了,(a)//因为导演们把他们塑造得太过单一。(c)
(翻译该句的时候,将b部分后置定语前置到所修饰的名词attempts(尝试)前面,其他部分从头到尾按照顺序翻译即可。)
