Today, surrounded by promises of easy happiness, /weneedart to tell us, as religion oncedid, Memento mori:rememberthat youwill die, that everythingends, and that happinesscomesnot in denying this but in living with it.【2006 Text 4】
我:
如今环境很容易得到快乐话,我们需要艺术告诉我们,比如做到一次宗教,便签说道:记住你将会死去,任何事物都会结束。尽管快乐没有来的很及时,但是一直都在身边。
老师:
如今,被唾手可得的快乐的承诺围绕着,我们需要艺术像宗教曾经做过的那样来告诉我们“死亡警示”:记得你终将死去,一切将会终结,快乐不在于否定这一点,而在于接受它。
生词:
✅ surround /səˈraʊnd/ v. 围绕,环绕;包围
✅ easy happiness 唾手可得的快乐
✅ religion /rɪˈlɪdʒən/ n. 宗教,教派;宗教信仰
✅ memento mori /me'mentəu'məurai/ 死亡警告;使人想到死亡的物体(或象征)
✅ live with… 接受,忍受
✅ 断开长难句:
根据标点逗号/冒号和连接词as/that/that/and/that,可以把句子断开为6段。
【句1】主句:Today, surrounded by promises of easy happiness, we need art to tell us, ..., Memento mori: ...
【句2】方式状语从句:as religion once did
【句3】祈使句:remember..., ..., and...
【句4】宾语从句:that you will die
【句5】宾语从句:that everything ends
【句6】宾语从句:(and) that happiness comes not in denying this but in living with it
✅ 分裂结构:
as religion once did状语从句,通过两个逗号隔开,插入到句子中,造成了句子的分裂。
✅ 平行结构:
1)两个介词短语in doing,通过not… but…连接,构成平行(并列)结构。
not in denying this but in living with it
2)三个that宾语从句,通过逗号和and连接,构成平行(并列)结构。
that you will die, that everything ends, and that happiness comes not in denying this but in living with it
