30、textravagantly-pricedwatchesthataddzerosjustbecauseofawell-knownnameareaninsulttoyourlogic. [句式分析]　本句話的主干句為Youneedanewwatch，theone...awell-knownnameareaninsulttoyourlogic是watch的同位語；在這個復(fù)雜的同位語中but連接的是兩個并列句；在第一個分句中youarewearing是省略了關(guān)系詞的定語從句，修飾one，在第二個分句中that又引導(dǎo)一個定語從句，修飾watches。 [精美譯文]　你需要一塊新手表——一塊你現(xiàn)在戴

31、著卻制造于尼克松時期的手表，但是僅僅是因為一個眾所周知的名字而在價格后面增加了零的昂貴手表是對你的邏輯的侮辱。 10.So，whilewe’rebusyrevolutionizingthewatchindustrytobringyoumorerealvalue，youcantakeyourownstandagainstover-pricedwatcheswiththeUrbanBlue. [句式分析]　本句是一個復(fù)合句，youcantakeyourownstandagainstover-pricedwatcheswiththeUrbanBlue是主句，whilewe’rebusyrevol

32、utionizingthewatchindustrytobringyoumorerealvalue是while引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語從句，while相當(dāng)于although/though，意為“盡管，雖然”。 [精美譯文]　因此，盡管我們忙于改革手表工業(yè)來為您帶來更多真正的價值，但是您可以采取自己的立場用UrbanBlue來反對過于昂貴的手表。 強化練(十七) Ⅰ.單項填空 1.Thereportattheconferenceanalysesindetailwhyanewlegalisneededtobetterprotecttheenvironment.(2019·海安縣高三期末) A.cu
