2018考研英语:长难句练习及解析(20)考研
Shippers who feel they are being overcharged have the right to appeal to the federal government’s Surface Transportation Board for rate relief, but the process is expensive, time-consuming, and will work only in truly extreme cases.
【核心词汇】
appeal v.求助;请求,呼吁;上诉
overcharge v.多收费
shipper n.货主,托运人
relief n.减轻,解除,救济
rate n.费用,比率
federal a.联邦的
【结构分析】
该句是并列句。第一个分句的主句是Shippers have the right to appeal to the federal government’s Surface Transportation Board for rate relief,shippers后面有一个who引导的定语从句修饰Shippers,but后面的第二个分句的谓语是由and连接的并列结构is expensive, time-consuming及 will work only in truly extreme cases构成。
【参考译文】
感觉被多收费的货主有权上诉到联邦政府的陆路运输局以争取价格下调,但是这个过程既耗钱又耗时,而且只有在真正极端特殊的情况下才有作用。考研
