考研英语长难句分析

On the face of it, that doesn’t seem especially surprising: we feel strong emotion at important events, which are obviously more memorable than ordinary moments.

　　【核心词汇】

especially ad.特别，尤其

emotion n.情感，情绪

event n.事件，大事

memorable a.显著的，难忘的

　【结构分析】主句是that doesn’t seem especially surprising，句首的On the face of it做全句的'状语，冒号后we feel strong emotion at important events是对主句的解释说明，非限定性定语从句which are obviously more memorable than ordinary moments修饰events。

　　【参考译文】乍看起来，那似乎不会使我们特别吃惊：在重大事件上我们会感到强烈的感情冲击——重大事件显然比平常日子让人记忆深刻。
