【雅思托福长难句】
句子长度:38个单词
句子分析:
1. 结构:
主句为“Stocks took a notable leg down in afternoon trading”,“following Trump's reiteration that 25% levies on imports from Mexico and Canada would go into effect on Tuesday”是现在分词短语作原因状语,说明股市下跌的原因,其中“that 25% levies on imports from Mexico and Canada would go into effect on Tuesday”是同位语从句,解释“reiteration”的内容;“dashing investors' hopes of a last-minute deal to avert the full tariffs on the two U.S. allies”是现在分词短语作结果状语,说明前面事件带来的结果。
2. 词汇:
“stocks”股票;“notable”显著的;“leg down”下跌;“afternoon trading”下午交易时段;“reiteration”重申;“levies”关税;“imports”进口商品;“go into effect”生效;“dash”破灭;“last-minute”最后一刻的;“avert”避免;“tariffs”关税;“allies”盟友。
大意:在特朗普重申对从墨西哥和加拿大进口的商品征收25%的关税将于周二生效后,股市在下午交易时段显著下跌,这破灭了投资者对于能达成最后一刻的协议以避免对美国这两个盟友全面征收关税的希望。#自律
