【长难句】

【长难句解析】
Tim Burton is a good fit for a story about a persecuted circus elephant and a nefarious entertainment magnate, (a)//because Dumbo’s outsider status is “a central characteristic (b)//that also runs through all of (Mr Burton’s) work”, (c)//according to Derek Frey, (d)//the film’s producer.(e)
【解读】
本句的主干为a部分。b部分为because引导的原因状语从句。c部分为that引导的定语从句修饰前面的先行词a central characteristic。d部分为介词短语对b部分进行解释说明。E部分为名词词组作为d部分Derek Frey的同位语,对其身份进行解释说明。
a部分persecuted为动词persecute的ved形式,该动词表示“(因种族、宗教或政治信仰),残害,压迫”,比如“Throughout history, people have been persecuted for their religious beliefs.”(人们因宗教信仰而受的情况贯穿了整个历史。)
a部分nefarious为形容词,表示“罪恶的;不道德的”稍作了解即可。同样的a部分magnate也稍微生僻,为名词,表示“权贵;要人;富豪;(尤指)产业大亨”,比如“a media/property/shipping magnate”(媒体 / 房地产 / 航运业大亨)
【参考译文】
蒂姆?伯顿非常适合写这样一个故事:受的马戏团大象和邪恶的娱乐巨头,(a)//因为根据电影
制片人(e)//德里克?弗雷的说法,(d)//小飞象的局外人身份(b)//是“贯穿伯顿所有作品的一个中心特征”。(c)
(翻译该句的时候,d e部分是交代事情说话人的背景,所以按照中文语序要前置到b部分之前,其他部分从头到尾按照顺序翻译即可。)
【长难句原文】
Today that means attracting stars—Ms Watson as Belle, Donald Glover and Beyoncé as Simba and Nala, Will Smith as the Genie—and directors who reinforce each title’s strengths.Tim Burton is a good fit for a story about a persecuted circus elephant and a nefarious entertainment magnate, because Dumbo’s outsider status is “a central characteristic that also runs through all of (Mr Burton’s) work”, according to Derek Frey, the film’s producer. Guy Ritchie’s aptitude for raucous action sequences lends itself to “Aladdin”, a fable about a mischievous street urchin.
