The potential evolution of today's technology, and its social consequences,is dazzlingly complicated, and it's perhaps best left to science fiction writers and futurologists to explore the many possibilities we can envisage.
重點(diǎn)單詞短語(yǔ):evolution(演變,進(jìn)化,發(fā)展);dazzlingly(令人迷惑的,莫名其妙的)
解析:
本句也是由and連接的兩個(gè)句子,前面句子主語(yǔ)為The potential evolution…and its social consequences。第二個(gè)并列句的主干是it's…best left…,出現(xiàn)了形式主語(yǔ),因?yàn)檎嬲髡Z(yǔ)是to explore the many possibilities…,比較長(zhǎng)。真正主語(yǔ)中還包含了一個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句we can envisage來(lái)修飾possibilities;謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞is left是被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài),介賓短語(yǔ)to science fiction writers and futurologists是left的對(duì)象。
翻譯:
當(dāng)今技術(shù)的發(fā)展趨勢(shì)及其社會(huì)影響是極為復(fù)雜的,也許,最 好的辦法是將我們所能設(shè)想到的種種可能交給科幻小說(shuō)家和未來(lái)學(xué)家去探索。
