经典例题

　　In Africa I met a boy，who was crying as if his heart would break and said，when I spoke to him，that he was hungry because he had had no food for two days.

　　分析:

　　第一，划出定语从句和状语从句:/who was crying /as if his heart would break/when I spoke to him，that he was hungry /

　　because he had had no food for two days.

　　第二，划出介词短语：In Africa

　　第三：把that引导的名词性从句看作一个整体：that he was hungry

　　第四，句子的结构分析:（1）主干结构是主语+过去式+宾语:I met a boy…；（2）who引导的定语从句中，was crying是第一个谓语，后面是状语从句“as if his heart would break”，修饰crying，第二个谓语是said, 后面是状语从句“when I spoke to him”，修饰said, “that he was hungry because he had had no food for two days.”是孕含有一个原因状语从句（because he had had no food for two days.）的宾语从句，整体上作said的宾语。难点部分的处理:“crying as if his heart would break”应译为“哭得伤心极了”。

　　译文：在非洲，我遇到一个小孩，他哭得伤心极了，我问他时，他说他饿了，因为已经两天没有吃饭了。
