同位语从句,状语从句结构图示
句子分解
这是一个复合句,有三个谓语动词:jumped,would eat 和fail。根据从句引导词 that 和 if 可进行如下划分:A.Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect
jump to sth. 表示“匆匆......”,这里要根据语境,译出“着急”的心态,可译为“立即、迅速”。with some distinctly shaky evidence作伴随状语,翻译时为了使译文流畅,可直接译为动宾关系的“拿出某些明显站不住脚的证据”。to the effect 为程度状语。
B.that insects would eat usup
that 引导修饰evidence 的同位语从句,在此同位语从句中,would eat usup表示一种假设情况,而这种情况是基于后面 if 引导的条件状语从句所描述的情形。 C.if birds failed to control them if 引导条件状语从句。 参考译文科学家们赶紧拿出某些明显站不住脚的证据前来救驾,大致是说如果鸟儿不能控制害虫的话,害怕就会把我们吃掉。
