19考研英語：屠屠長難句（二十六）

1、每日一句長難句（28）

In a draft preface to the recommendations, discussed at the 17 May meeting, Shapiro suggested that the panel had found a broad consensus that it would be “morally unacceptable to attempt to create a human child by adult nuclear cloning.”

2、【分析】

主幹是Shapiro suggested that＋從句。主語前面的部分是該句的介詞短語作狀語，其中recommendations後面接過去分詞結構discussed at the 17 May meeting做修飾成分。that引導的賓語從句the panel had found a broad consensus，而從句中a broad consensus後面是同位語從句，解釋consensus的內容，這個同位語從句中的it充當的是形式主語，真正的主語是後面的不定式to attempt to create a human child by adult nuclear cloning。

3、【詞彙】

draft 草稿

preface 序言(pre-在…前面，face封面)

suggest 不表示建議，在這裏譯成“提出”

panel 專家組

consensus 共識

morally 道德地

attempt to 嘗試

4、【譯文】

在5月17日會議上所討論的建議書序言草案中，Shapiro提出，專家組已經達成廣泛共識，那就是“試圖通過成人細胞核克隆來製造人類幼兒的做法在道德上是不可接受的”。

5、【明日長難句】

No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professional and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule. Nevertheless, the word "amateur" does carry a connotation that person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not share its values.
