If you are too much in a hurry to accept as a gift to your humanity some pieces of the minds of Sophocles— and right down the scale and down the ages to Yeats, Einstein, E. B. White, and Ogden Nash — then you may be protected by the laws governing manslaughter, and you may be a voting entity, but you are neither a developed human being nor a useful citizen of a democracy.
请问老师as a gift和to your humanity some pieces of the minds of Sophocles分别作什么成分?and right down the scale and down the ages to Yeats, Einstein, E. B. White, and Ogden Nash作什么?谢谢老师!
accept as a gift to your humanity some pieces of the minds of Sophocles这部分的正常语序是accept 宾语some pieces of the minds of Sophocles 方式状语as a gift to your humanity,因为宾语较长,更主要的是为了和后面的其他名人关联,所以进行了后置处理。and right down the scale and down the ages to Yeats, Einstein, E. B. White, and Ogden Nash这部分通过破折号引出,可以看出插入成分。
这句话要注意对too ... to结构的理解,即“如果你太匆忙而不能……”。整句主要表达的意思是:如果没有吸收伟大思想的养分,我们不过是行尸走肉。
