19考研英語：屠屠長難句（九十二）

01每日一句長難句
In a significant tightening of legal controls over the press, Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor, will introduce a draft bill that will propose making payments to witnesses illegal and will strictly control the amount of publicity that can be given to a case before a trial begins.

02【句型分析】
句首是狀語， Lord Irvine是主語，後面是同位語，will introduce是謂語，賓語後面接了that引導的定語從句，從句中謂語是and連接的並列結構，後面結構中賓語publicity後面又是that引導的定語從句。句首的狀語可以看成是To significantly tighten of legal controls over the press，表示目的；此處的significant不再作爲重要的，而是表示程度。

03【詞彙】
press n. 媒體

draft n.草案

publicity n.公開

04【參考譯文】
爲了加強對報界的法律控制，大法官埃爾溫勳爵將要提出一個法案的草案。這一法案將提議把報界付款給證人的做法定爲非法，並且，法案還嚴格對案件在開庭前的公開程度加以限制。

05【明日長難句】
It is generally recognized, however, that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century, followed by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process, although its impact on the media was not immediately apparent.
