19考研英语:屠屠长难句(十六)
1、每日一句长难句(18)
The corporation will survive as a publicly-funded broadcasting organization,at least for the time being,but its role,its size and its programmes are now the subject of a nation-wide debate in Britain.
2、【分析】
该句是由but连接的两个转折关系的分句。前半句为The corporation will survive as …,其中at least for the time being的意思是“眼下,暂时”,这里做时间状语。后半句的主干可以表达为A are the subject of B(A是B的对象)。
3、【词汇】
survive v. 幸存;战胜
fund v.投资
for the time being 暂时
4、【译文】
虽然至少目前,它仍可以以公办广播机构的身份生存下去,但它的作用、规模和节目类型却成了全英国争论的话题。
