是的,主句是maybe it's not all doom and gloom。
划线部分整体是一个when引导的时间状语从句。其中as引导的时间从句为we're going to face这个定语从句的时间从句,和when从句不在一个层次上,不可把二者相提并论。
所以,这个句子结构为when从句+主句。
长难句成分分析
Now last week, when we discussed the serious energy challenges we're going to face / as the world's population continues to grow and we place more stress on our finite supply of fossil fuels- especially natural gas and oil- well, maybe it's not all doom and gloom.
上个星期,当我们讨论到我们将要面对的严峻的能源挑战时,随着世界人口的持续增长,我们对有限的化石燃料施加了更多压力—尤其是天然气和石油,但也许这并不全是灾难和黑暗。
这句话是不是主句是maybe it's not all doom and gloom.
划线句是不是when引导的时间状从和as引导的一个并列的时间状从?一个主句两个从句?
